Every good product demo I saw was made with Screen Studio. It's Mac only. I'm on Windows. So I built ScreenCursor. It's a Chrome extension. You hit record, and it watches where your cursor goes and where you click. When you stop, the zooms are already placed. You get a finished video, not a project to edit. Three things I cared about: It runs anywhere Chrome runs. Windows, Mac, Linux. No installer, no admin rights. Nothing is uploaded. The recording never leaves your computer. No account, no server, no watermark. $49 once lifetime! not $108 a year. Every zoom is still yours. Move it, resize it, delete it, or turn it off entirely if the automatic one guessed wrong. I'd genuinely love to hear what breaks, especially if you're on Windows or Linux. That's who I built this for, and that's exactly where I have the fewest testers. Ask me anything.

Hey Phoenix. As a Chrome extension rather than a native app, does it capture other windows and your whole desktop too, or only what's inside the browser tab?

$49 once vs a subscription is the right pitch for this category, but I'm curious how the auto-zoom handles a fast, messy demo - lots of quick tab switches, rapid clicking around, no pauses. Does it still pick sensible zoom points, or does that kind of session end up needing a lot of manual "move it, resize it, delete it" cleanup after?

Congrats on the launch, great product, you're selling it too cheaply! Transcriptions would be an amazing addition to this.
