IN THE APP

Screenshots

Choose what to record: a region, the full screen or one window. Set audio, camera, frame rate and auto-zoom first, and pick up an unsaved take where you left off.

Edit a recording on the timeline: automatic zoom segments, text notes, arrows, highlights, pen marks, speed-ups, cuts and on-device captions, with a camera bubble in the corner.

Export the result as a GIF or MP4 video, using a preset or your own frame rate, width and quality, with the file size estimated before you export.

Trial captures with sample data. Solace Zoom runs on your Windows PC.

ABOUT THIS PRODUCT

The story behind Solace Zoom

A screen recording is the fastest way to show how something works, but raw captures are hard to follow: the cursor is tiny, the important part is somewhere in a corner and nobody wants to spend an hour keyframing zooms in a video editor.

Solace Zoom records a region, a window or a whole screen and glides in on every click on its own, with smooth cursor movement, so the viewer always sees what you are doing. Press Ctrl+Shift+Z to zoom by hand. Afterwards the editor lets you trim, cut the fumbles, speed up idle stretches, add labels, arrows and highlights, pick a frame and background, and export an MP4 or GIF that is ready for a README, changelog, chat or product post.

Captions are made on your PC: the first time you ask for them, Solace Zoom downloads a 57 MB speech model from SolaceSoftware and checks its SHA-256. There is no account, telemetry or watermark. Apart from that optional download, the app only checks SolaceSoftware for signed updates.
