> Open-source Chrome screen recorder with a scene-based editor

Screenity started as a free, open-source Chrome extension for recording the screen, camera and microphone, with drawing and blur tools and no account. A paid web editor now sits on top of it: recordings are arranged as scenes, clicks become zooms, speech is captioned word by word, and the result is shared as a link or exported. The service is hosted in Europe and built by a solo founder.

## Key features

- **Free Chrome recorder:** Records a tab, a window, a custom area or the whole screen with camera, microphone and tab audio. It needs no sign-in, has no recording limit and saves locally or to Google Drive.
- **Drawing, blur and cursor spotlight:** While recording you can draw with a pen, arrows, shapes and text, blur anything private on the page, and dim everything except the cursor.
- **Scene-based editor:** A Pro video is built from separate scenes that can be recorded on their own and reordered. Scenes can be split, trimmed, cut in the middle and sped up.
- **Auto-zoom from clicks:** Clicks made while recording with the extension become zoom keyframes in the editor. Each one can be retimed, removed or added by hand.
- **Word-by-word captions:** Audio is transcribed on Screenity's own servers in Europe and each word is highlighted as it is spoken. Captions can be styled and edited, and are English only for now.
- **Layouts, overlays and share links:** Animated screen and camera layouts, browser and device frames, text and arrow overlays, backdrops and music. Pro shares a public or private link and exports MP4.
