That one is ScreenStudio - it's a great product!
I'm a founder at Yarn (YC W24) – we're building in this space and launching on HN soonish.
We often see teams combining ScreenStudio with products like iMovie, AfterEffects, or Veed. Other products in the space to check out are Tella.tv, Kite, or Descript.
For more advanced motion graphics, you'll often need a freelancer or agency.
Feel free to drop me a message (email in bio) to talk through options!
- shafyy 2y ago+1 for ScreenStudio, use it and love it.
- yodon 2y agoI'm baffled why you'd name your product in a way that conflicts with a heavily used front end tool.
- heyarviind2 2y agoScreenStudio looks amazing, thanks for sharing

- TheFreim 2y agoHow long is the Yarn wait list?
- jasperstory 2y agoNot sure. Hopefully next 4-6 weeks. Building as fast as possible with current teams – but lots of tricky webGL, Swift, and headless Chrome involved.
- ImHereToVote 2y agoMac only?
- bawabawa 2y agoI work for https://www.canvid.com https://www.canvid.com, and we recently released a beta version of our product, which is similar to Screen Studio but designed for Windows. If we see enough interest, we may even release a Linux version around Q3.
- jasperstory 2y agoMany of the apps are macOS only unfortunately. For Windows, there's Descript or Camtasia. Linux not sure, but Descript and Veed are browser-based.
- xrd 2y agoI chuckled when you said you weren't sure about Linux tools. Real Linux users code all their sleek demo videos inside emacs in hex.
- darou 2y agoYes, I use Camtasia for over a decade. It not only solves screen recording but also most other tasks you would need cutting video and sound.
- snide 2y agoUnfortunately this is one of the places where Linux really doesn't have any good options. While there are definitely raw capture options for Linux, there isn't anything as nice as Screen Studio or Screen Flow or Camtasia for quick, short videos with basic editing.
- djbusby 2y agoOn Linux I've used SimpleScreenRecorder. Can invoke ffmpeg to screengrab too.
- victorbjorklund 2y agoScreenStudio looks nice. And thank god a pay once app.
- vunderba 2y agoAgreed, as far as I can tell, this is the only one in the space that doesn't insist upon a monthly payment.
- jasperstory 2y agoYep although to be precise it's a pay-for-a-year-of-updates model, and the underlying macOS APIs in this space change significantly between minor and major macOS releases, so ymmv in terms of "pay once forever". (For upcoming features like shareable links, they'll presumably move to a part-subscription pricing model.)
- mavsman 2y agoA lot of fragmented promise for video editing amongst these different apps. Hopefully someone will make a comparison chart for these. Good luck on your launch!
- jamesbfb 2y agoI’m a dev lead who is a rusted on Linux user, I’ve always hated that ScreenStudio is Mac only since it’s a great product. Any plans for Linux support? I would love the ability to dem stuff and have it actually look pretty.
- duckmysick 2y agoThis would be difficult because mouse and window controls are different in X11 and Wayland.
- jasperstory 2y agoThe problem is that a lot of the details requires macOS accessibility permissions (identifying active window, measuring cursor movements), so there's non-trivial platform specific code. For product demos specifically, best bet might be a Chrome-extension-based product like Arcade!
- rrrx3 2y agoAnother +1 for Screen studio. I use it legitimately daily in my Product Design job, and not just for customer-facing demo videos.
- bcjordan 2y agoScreenStudio is really good, I use it for all of my capture. Main feature I find missing is ability to reorder or combine multiple recordings into one clip, or add audio from within the app.
- ldenoue 2y agoYou can do that with ScreenRun (which I developed) https://screenrun.app/ https://screenrun.app/
