¿Qué es?

Cap is a screen recording tool for macOS and Windows that turns recordings into shareable video links. It records screen, camera, and microphone, and offers two modes: Instant Mode uploads while you record so a link is ready as soon as you stop, while Studio Mode records locally and opens an editor for backgrounds, zooms, trimming, captions, and export.

Shared videos can include comments, reactions, transcripts, viewer analytics, and team workspaces, and can be public or password-protected. Cap also offers AI-generated titles, summaries, chapters, and captions, plus import of existing Loom videos.

For storage, you can use Cap Cloud, connect an S3-compatible bucket such as AWS S3, Cloudflare R2, or MinIO, or self-host the web app, API, database, media server, and object storage with Docker Compose. The repository is a Turborepo monorepo combining a Tauri desktop app, a Next.js web app, and Rust crates for capture and rendering.
