Awesome Screenshot

Full-page and region screenshots

Captures the visible part of a page, the entire scrolling page, a selected area or a window, and saves the result as PNG, JPG or PDF.

Screenshot annotation

Marks up a capture with arrows, rectangles, text, highlights, callouts and numbered steps, and blurs private details. The Free plan has the basic tools only.

Screen and camera recording

Records the screen together with the camera, up to 6 hours per recording, in WebM or MP4. Resolution is up to 720p on Free and Basic and up to 4K on Professional.

Video editor

Cuts a recording and adds text and shapes to it. On Free and Basic, editing and downloading apply only to recordings shorter than 1 hour.

Cloud library and share links

Uploads captures to a cloud account where they can be organized and shared by link, or saves them to the local disk instead.

Team workspaces

A workspace gives members shared access to videos and images. Workspace Lite is free for up to 5 members; Workspace Premium removes the limits.

ScreenRec

Screen, webcam and audio recording

Records the whole screen or a selected area together with the microphone, computer audio and a webcam overlay. Signed-in users have no length limit and no watermark.

Annotated screenshots

Captures a region of the screen and adds shapes, arrows and comments, then copies the image to the clipboard or saves it to the cloud account.

Instant share links

Recordings upload while they are being made, so a private link is ready when recording stops. Automatic uploads are capped at 10 a month on Free and 50 on Pro.

Offline recording and MP4 export

Without a connection a capture is saved as a local file and uploaded once the computer is back online. Recordings can also be exported as MP4.

Access control and viewer analytics

A viewer can be asked for a password or access can be limited to named users, and analytics show who watched a video and for how long.

Voice dictation and AI credits

Dictation turns speech into text, with 5, 180 or 1,200 minutes a month by plan. Monthly AI credits pay for transcripts, captions and generated titles and summaries.
