Captist – Browser-based screen recorder with automatic zoom

Summary: Captist is a screen recorder that offers automatic zoom, cinematic effects, and professional layouts, running entirely in the browser without installation. It processes recordings locally to ensure privacy and supports Chrome, Edge, Brave, and Arc browsers.

What it does

Captist captures screen recordings with smart auto-zoom that tracks clicks for cinematic focus and provides pro layouts with backgrounds and hotkey overlays. All rendering occurs locally on the user's machine.

Who it's for

It is designed for Windows, Linux, and Chrome users seeking advanced screen recording tools similar to those available on Mac.

Why it matters

Captist solves the lack of professional, privacy-focused screen recording tools for non-Mac users by offering a browser-based solution with automatic zoom and styling features.
