Part 01 · Overview
Welcome
What it is, who it suits, its grades and the ten things to know first
2.6
GPA, above 28 of the 52 other screen recording and video tools we grade
Jumpshare is a screen recorder for Mac and Windows that also captures screenshots and GIFs and shares files. A recording uploads in the background, so a link to a web player is ready when you stop, and viewers need no account. Paid plans add editing, captions, call-to-action buttons, analytics and branding, and the Business plan adds AI that titles, summarizes and chapters each video.
To get you started, here are 9 things to know about Jumpshare, taken from its own pages and our grades.
The link is ready the moment you stop recording, and whoever opens it needs no account.
- 1
Best for screen recordings and big files shared from one app
Jumpshare records your screen, grabs screenshots and GIFs, and shares files from one desktop app, with the link ready when you stop and no account needed to watch.
- 2
Paid plans start at $12 a month for each person
As its pricing page puts it: $12 per user / month, billed annually ($15 billed monthly).
- 3
There is a free plan
Basic plan: 25 uploads, recordings of up to 5 minutes at 1080p with no watermark, 15-second GIFs, screenshot capture with annotation and a 250 MB limit per upload.
- 4
It runs on 4 platforms
macOS, Windows, iOS and Web, with a browser extension too.
- 5
Screen and webcam recording
Records the full screen, an area or a window with system audio, microphone and webcam, plus a teleprompter and on-screen drawing. Free accounts get 5 minutes at 1080p; paid plans are unlimited at up to 4K.
- 6
Screenshots and GIFs
Captures PNG or JPG screenshots, including scrolling pages, with arrows, text, blur and other annotations. GIFs run to 15 seconds on the free plan and 60 seconds on paid plans.
- 7
Instant links and web player
A share link is ready when recording stops, and recipients watch in the browser without an account. Paid plans add passwords, expiring links, scheduled sharing and a custom domain.
- 8
A 2.6 GPA, above 28 of 52
That is against the other screen recording and video tools we grade, on value, the free plan, features, ease of use and platforms.
- 9
Keep it
To replace Jumpshare you would be making a video editor. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.

The report card
Best for screen recordings and big files shared from one app
Jumpshare records your screen, grabs screenshots and GIFs, and shares files from one desktop app, with the link ready when you stop and no account needed to watch. The free plan stops at 25 uploads, 5 minutes a recording and 250 MB per upload. Trimming and captions need Plus at $12 a month, AI summaries and Zapier need Business at $16, and there's no Android app yet.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | C | Plus is $12 a user a month billed annually ($144 a year), a little above this category's $10 middle, for unlimited uploads and recording at up to 4K, captions, trimming and analytics. The AI titles and summaries want Business at $16. |
| Free plan and trial | C | Basic is free and recordings come out at 1080p with no watermark. But it's 25 uploads, 5 minutes a recording and 250 MB per upload, and captions, trimming and saving locally all need Plus. |
| Features | B | Screen, window or area recording with webcam, teleprompter and on-screen drawing, scrolling screenshots with arrows and blur, GIFs, links with passwords and expiry, and file sharing with previews for 200 formats. The job is covered, as Loom and Zight cover it. |
| Ease of use | B | 4.65 from about 470 App Store ratings, short of our top mark on both the score and the crowd behind it. The link is ready the moment you stop recording, and whoever opens it needs no account. |
| Platforms and integrations | B | Mac, Windows, a browser extension, the web and an iPhone and iPad app, with Slack and Zapier. The apps page still lists Android as coming soon, and Zapier needs Business. |
An A is worth 4 points, a B 3, a C 2, a D 1 and an F nothing. The GPA is the average of the five.
Who Jumpshare is for
- Fits if you're in sales or support and send short recorded explanations as links
- Works for people who want recordings, screenshots and GIFs in one desktop app
Who it is not for
- Tight if you're staying free, as Basic stops at 25 uploads, 5-minute recordings and 250 MB per upload
- Pricey if you only wanted the AI summaries and chapters, since those need Business at $16 per user a month
- Skip it if your phone is an Android, because the mobile app covers iPhone and iPad only
- Watch out: trimming, captions and saving locally all need Plus at $12 a user a month
- Watch out: SAML SSO is Enterprise only, at no listed price, and SCIM is still listed as coming soon

Keep it, or make your own?
Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.
Keep it
To replace Jumpshare you would be making a video editor. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
It costs $144 a year.
What you could not
- A video editor.
- Recording the screen with its sound, and somewhere to keep the video.
- Capture tools hooked into the operating system.
- Storing and serving files for other people.
- Speech turned into text you can trust.
- Apps for macOS, Windows and iOS that stay in step with each other.
- It is priced for each person, which means accounts and billing for a team.
- AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
- The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
What this rests on. Jumpshare’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
