I recently bought ScreenKite after 1 year of free use. It's an avant-garde product in this recording space. I have used plenty of screen recording tools, but ScreenKite covers everything. And the best part is that they keep up with innovation. Your tool never feels outdated.

@screenkite_com is such a goated app! far better than screen studio, and most of the features are free too
gagan@gagan_buildsalso s/o @screenkite_com. replaced Screen Studio with it and it's been great so far
Noah@noahliskglad i discovered @screenkite_com and never looked back! native, faster & free.
nik@realNirajKI've been using it since the beta, and it keeps getting smoother. All of AndroMeld's promo videos are edited with it. There are a lot of thoughtful touches.
1ittlecup@1ittlecupI just saw hyperframe. This may make this tool so dreamy for me, literally so powerful. To be honest, I am loving it every day.
Muhammad Abdullah Khan@BuildInBitsI really like your tool, so i am going to stick with you guys. I have been using screenkite for the videos on my X page
Victor Kildahl@VictorKildahlI just bought @screenkite_com. I was already using it for free, but they just released a paid version without watermarks.
Toledo@itxtoledoThis time I used @screenkite_com by indie developer @mike_chong_zh. It works great. If you're interested, go support it.
Bear Liu@bearliuThis is superb! I love what you guys are doing.
Aise@iyamuaiseThis story is amazing, and the tool is excellent too.
Shawn@ShawnHacksuse @screenkite_com it's free, they also gave me early user discount for me and two friends

Chitra Singh@chit_raa01 · Speed
3x faster than Screen Studio.
Same recording, same Mac. ScreenKite is built for Mac, so exports finish 3x faster.

02 · Your AI edits it
"Cut the pauses, zoom on every click, export for YouTube."
Type that to Claude Code, Codex, Grok or Kimi. The agent runs it inside ScreenKite: transcript cuts, zooms, B-roll, captions, export. It works like a professional editor sitting next to you. It costs nothing extra. Usage bills to the plan you already have. ScreenKite has no AI fee.
03 · One app
Everything you need, in one app.
Record, auto-zoom, cut, add captions, export. No second app, no plugins.
ScreenKite follows your cursor and zooms in on every click and keystroke as you record. Your demo looks polished before you even open the editor.
04 · Make it yours
Make your recording look the way you want.
Change the background. Add space around your screen. Round the corners. Add a shadow. Move your camera anywhere. Just drag the sliders.
Pick your background
Pick a color, a gradient, or a wallpaper.
Add a shadow
Soft shadow, rounded corners. One slider each.
Place your camera
Put your face anywhere. Make it bigger or smaller.
Speed up and edit
Cut the mistakes. Speed up the boring parts.
"Everyone wants their product to look stunning when recording and sharing videos. ScreenKite makes it possible for me."

05 · How it is built
The parts nobody shows you.
Most of this is normal engineering. Nobody else tells you about it.
Native Swift and Metal
One codebase for macOS only, on the hardware encoder. That is where the 3x faster export comes from.
Transcription on your Mac
WhisperKit runs on Apple Silicon. Your audio does not leave the Mac unless you turn on cloud transcription.
83 agent tools, each with a dry run
The agent proposes, you see the change, then it commits. A wrong edit is stopped before it lands.
Signed and notarized
Developer ID, Apple notarization, Sparkle EdDSA updates. macOS checks every build before it runs.

Is ScreenKite really free?
Recording and editing are free. Export with a watermark at no charge. Pro is one payment of $99.99 for 3 Macs, regular price $199.99. Not a subscription.
How is ScreenKite faster than Screen Studio?
ScreenKite is native Swift on macOS and exports on the hardware encoder. The same 4K recording exports 3x faster than in Screen Studio.
Do I pay for AI?
No. ScreenKite exposes its editor to the agents you already use — Claude Code, Codex, Grok, Kimi. Usage is billed to your own plan; we never charge an AI fee.
What Mac do I need?
macOS 15 and later on Intel and Apple Silicon. On-device WhisperKit transcription needs Apple Silicon. Intel Macs use ElevenLabs cloud transcription.
Is my data private?
Recordings and edits stay local on your Mac unless you share them. Optional cloud transcription and AI providers receive only what the feature you start needs.
