That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 68 of the 133 other screen recording and video tools grade higher. It costs $174 a year. - You could not: A video editor. - You could not: Speech turned into text you can trust. - You could not: It plugs into other products, TikTok, YouTube and Instagram among them, and has an API. - You could not: AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
