About ScreenX

ScreenX is a web-based screen recorder and simple video editor for making demo and feature-showcase videos. It records in up to 4K, processes locally so unreleased features stay private, and exports MP4 or GIF with smooth frame rates. Because it runs in the browser, it works on Windows, Linux and Mac, and the site presents it as an option for people who want Screen Studio style zooms outside the Mac ecosystem.

Features include cinematic zooms, pans and backgrounds, with webcam overlay, screenshot mockups and cutting and merging videos in beta, and multi-point panning and automatic zoom on clicks listed as planned. An account is used so projects can sync across devices. All core features are free, and paid plans are aimed at people who need high-volume exports.
