Screen Studio

macOS recorder that adds automatic zoom and smoothed cursor motion

Overview

Screen Studio is a macOS-only recorder designed for polished product demos and social clips. Its distinguishing method is that it records the screen without the mouse cursor, logs precise cursor movement separately and adds the cursor back afterwards, which allows smoothing of motion, resizing of the cursor and automatic zoom effects after recording[10].

Every feature is included in every plan, including export up to 4K at 60 fps, shareable links, cloud transcripts and project sharing[10]. The company says recordings are stored and processed locally and that AI features such as transcription run on the user’s computer; basic usage data collection can be switched off[10].

Screen Studio has a narrow focus. It does not run on Windows, and the company states there are no near-term plans for a Windows version[10]. It is not a team messaging tool with analytics or admin controls, so it competes with Camtasia and Descript for produced demos rather than with Loom.
