Screen recording, reimagined

Your cursor is the camera.

01 — The takes

Five tools most recorders forget to ship.

T-01

Auto-zoom on every click.

Critical-damped spring math chases your cursor so zooms feel cinematic, never bouncy. Tunable if you want to nerd out.

T-02

Webcam bubble, composited cleanly.

Live preview while you record. Drag it over the screen or over the backdrop. Blur or replace your background with MediaPipe — runs on-device.

T-03

3-2-1 countdown on the real screen.

A transparent overlay runs the countdown above your actual window, invisible to the recording thanks to macOS content protection.

T-04

Editor that's already done.

Split, trim, pick aspect ratio, add a background, drop a browser frame. The clip is ready the moment you stop recording.

T-05

Straight to ~/Movies/DaddyRecorder.

No save dialogs, no filename prompts. Finder reveals the export the instant it lands. Recent clips live in your menu bar.

02 — How it works

Three keystrokes. Zero fiddling.

  1. 01

    Hit ⌘⇧R.

    From anywhere on your Mac. A 3-2-1 overlay lands on the screen you picked. MediaRecorder starts the instant it's gone.

  2. 02

    Do your thing.

    Your cursor, clicks, and webcam are being watched. Auto-zoom follows. macOS Portrait / Center Stage stack on top if you want.

  3. 03

    Hit the shortcut again.

    Editor opens with the take. Tweak if you want. Export lands in ~/Movies/DaddyRecorder. Done.

03 — Muscle memory

A shortcut for everything.

⌘⇧R
Start / stop recording — from anywhere
⌘⇧H
Toggle camera bubble mid-take
Space
Play / pause the preview in the editor
Z
Add a zoom segment at the playhead
04 — The editor

Edit like it's effortless.

Clean timeline. Easy controls. Everything you need, nothing you don't.
