RecBeamA free screen recorder with camera and audio, no watermark
A browser screen recorder with camera and microphone support, floating controls, and automatic cloud upload — no software to install beyond the Chrome extension itself.
How it works
- Install RecBeam from the Download page.
- Sign in with Google.
- Choose Screen only, Screen + Camera, or Camera only.
- Select a tab, window, or screen using Chrome's own picker.
- Record using the floating controls — pause, resume, mute, or hide your camera as needed.
- Finish, and RecBeam uploads automatically.
- Share the generated link.
Built for real recording sessions
Screen, window or tab
Record your full screen, one window, or a single browser tab, chosen through Chrome's native picker.
Screen and camera
Composite a camera bubble over your screen recording for a more personal explanation.
Microphone support
Narrate clearly with a one-click mute that genuinely silences the recorded audio.
Pause and resume
Stop mid-recording and pick back up without losing your take or restarting the countdown.
Entire-screen warning
A clear heads-up when recording your entire screen, since RecBeam's own floating controls may appear in that capture.
Upload recovery
A network drop never costs you the recording — it's kept locally until the upload is verified, with retry available.
Recording limits
Starter recordings run up to 5 minutes. Business removes the limit entirely. RecBeam warns you as you approach the limit and finishes the recording safely — it's never discarded, even at the cutoff. See our pricing for full plan details.
RecBeam records what Chrome's own screen-capture picker can see. The extension does not capture native desktop applications outside the browser beyond what that picker supports. To record any app on your PC, use RecBeam for Windows.
Frequently asked questions
Can I record just a browser tab?
Yes. Chrome's own source picker lets you choose a single tab, a specific window, or your entire screen.
Does the recorder capture audio?
Yes — your microphone, and tab or system audio where supported by Chrome.
Does RecBeam add a watermark to my recordings?
No. RecBeam never adds a watermark, on the free Starter plan or on Business. Starter recordings run up to 5 minutes; Business removes the limit.
Can I pause a recording?
Yes. Pause and resume from the floating controls; the final file has no gap where you paused.
What happens at the entire-screen option?
RecBeam shows a clear warning that its own floating controls may appear inside an entire-screen recording, since that's the one mode where your whole display — including RecBeam's own dock — is being captured.
How long can a recording be?
5 minutes on Starter, unlimited on Business. RecBeam warns you before the limit and finishes safely — your recording is never discarded.
