RecBeamEverything 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
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
Record a bug, get the written report
Record in Bug report mode and RecBeam writes the report from what you said: title, steps, acceptance criteria and the timestamp of the failure.
- Reproduction steps written from your narration
- Expected and actual stated separately
- A link that opens the recording at the moment it broke
- Only Bug report recordings are scanned, so ordinary videos stay clean
- Review and edit before anything is filed
File it where your team already works
Connect GitHub, Linear or Slack once, then push a finished report straight into your tracker.
- GitHub and Linear issues with the full report in the description
- Slack posts with the title, length and summary
- Credentials checked with the provider before they are saved, then encrypted
- Filing the same bug twice is refused, not duplicated
Every recording, written up
Transcripts on every plan. Summaries, chapters, action items and meeting recaps on Business + AI.
- Transcripts and captions on every plan, including free
- Search across every recording by what was said, not just the title
- Summary, chapters and action items collected on your dashboard
- Meeting recaps with participants, decisions and follow-ups
- A knowledge base your support assistant answers from
- All processed on Cloudflare, never sent to OpenAI
Hide what should not be on screen
Blur a region during the recording. It is composited into the frames as they are captured, so the unblurred pixels never leave your machine.
- Draw a blur over anything sensitive mid-recording
- The blur follows the content when the page scrolls
- Permanent by design, so it cannot be undone later by anyone
- Background blur for the camera, applied before upload
