RecBeam
Everything you need to record, capture and share
RecBeam covers the whole path from a raw recording to a link someone else can open — recording, upload, organization, and screenshots, all in one place.

Record exactly what you mean to show
Choose the source that fits the moment, without extra setup.
- Screen only, for a clean walkthrough of an app or website
- Screen and camera, composited together for a more personal explanation
- Camera only, for a quick face-to-camera message
- Record a single browser tab, one window, or your entire screen

Weekly update
Add a face to your explanation
A camera bubble composites over your screen recording, so viewers can see your reactions while you talk through what's on screen.
- Show or hide the camera bubble mid-recording without restarting
- Camera-only mode for a message with no screen content at all
- No new permission prompt when you re-show a camera you already approved
Narrate clearly, mute when you need to
Microphone narration is built in, with a one-click mute that actually silences the recorded audio for that period — not just your local monitor.
- Microphone toggle before and during recording
- Optional tab or system audio capture where supported
- Muted periods are genuinely silent in the final file, not just visually indicated
Control recording without switching tabs
A floating Picture-in-Picture dock stays visible above whatever you're working in, so you never have to hunt for a browser tab mid-recording.
- Pause and resume without losing your take or restarting the countdown
- Timer counts up, with a clear warning before you hit your plan's limit
- Minimizes to a compact bar when you need the screen space back
- Closing the floating window doesn't stop the recording — it just returns to an in-tab dock
Finish recording, and it's already uploading
There's no separate "upload" button. As soon as you finish, RecBeam starts sending your recording to your account automatically.
- Upload begins the moment recording ends
- A temporary local copy is kept only until the upload is verified as complete
- The local copy is removed automatically once the video is confirmed retrievable

A failed upload never costs you the recording
If a network drop, a closed tab, or an expired session interrupts an upload, your recording is never silently lost.
- Interrupted uploads appear under "Uploads needing attention"
- Retry, download, or discard — your choice
- A retry never creates a duplicate cloud copy of the same recording

Find any recording in seconds
Every uploaded recording lives in one searchable, sortable library, private to your account.
- Search by title as you type
- Sort by newest, oldest, largest file, or name
- Filter by date range (7/30/90 days) and duration
- Pagination that loads more without duplicating results

Manage recordings the way you'd expect
Every recording supports the basic actions you need, with clear confirmation before anything permanent happens.
- Rename a recording any time
- Archive to tidy your active library without losing the video or its share link
- Download the original file
- Permanently delete — this immediately breaks the public share link, with no undo

Capture a moment, not just a video
Sometimes a single image says it faster than a recording. RecBeam captures your current tab, or a window or screen you pick.
- Capture this tab — one click from the toolbar popup
- Capture a selected window or screen through Chrome's own picker
- Nothing is ever captured without you explicitly choosing to

Mark up exactly what matters
A full annotation editor runs right in your browser, so you can highlight the detail that actually needs attention.
- Crop to the relevant area
- Draw freehand, or add arrows, lines, rectangles and ellipses
- Add text callouts and highlight important details
- Pixelate sensitive information before you share
- Full undo and redo history while you edit

One link, ready the moment upload finishes
Every recording and screenshot gets its own unlisted share link the instant its upload is verified.
- Copy the link with one click
- Anyone with the exact link can view — no sign-in required to watch
- Links are unlisted: not searchable, not indexed, not discoverable by browsing
