Screenify Studio is the Mac screen recorder for indie hackers and technical founders who refuse to pay the editing tax. Turn rough captures into polished product demos without leaving your machine โ drive it from the timeline editor, the terminal, or from Claude Code in plain English.
Web demos, directed by AI - Point it at any URL and it drives a real browser, adds a smooth cursor and auto-zoom on every click, trims dead time, and hands back a finished demo. - Or describe the demo in plain language and an AI clicks and scrolls your site for you, then directs cinematic effects โ 3D camera tours, spotlights, blur-to-hide, and callout highlights โ on the key moments. Record pages behind a login; export MP4, GIF, or MOV with one-tap sizing for YouTube, TikTok, and Reels.
3D device stages - Drop any recording into a photoreal 3D MacBook, iPhone, or iPad with authentic finishes for each model โ the frame follows your zoom and camera moves. - Environment backdrops and desk surfaces for production-quality framing.
Cinematic camera motions - 30+ hand-crafted multi-axis camera moves with real lens controls โ focal length compresses the background, aperture blurs it for a soft-backdrop look.
Recording & editing - Smart Auto-Zoom follows your cursor and clicks automatically. - Cursor Studio: recolorable or glossy 3D cursors, click sound, motion-based tilt. - A multi-track timeline that collapses inactive tracks so everything stays selectable.
On-device AI - Captions (Whisper), webcam background removal, and silence detection all run on Apple Silicon โ nothing is uploaded.
Automation - A JSON-speaking command-line tool records and exports from the terminal, and ships a Claude Code skill so AI agents can record and produce videos in plain English.
Native Apple-Silicon, local-first. Free to start; Pro from $9/mo or $149 lifetime.
Screenify Studio ScreenFlowScreenify Studio's answer
You can describe a demo in plain English and an AI drives a real browser to record it, then directs cinematic effects โ 3D camera moves, spotlights, and callouts โ on the key moments. Most recorders give you a raw capture; Screenify hands you a finished, launch-ready video, staged in a photoreal 3D MacBook, iPhone, or iPad. The whole thing also runs from a JSON-speaking command line, so an AI agent like Claude Code can produce a demo end-to-end โ and every AI feature runs on-device on Apple Silicon.
Screenify Studio's answer
It removes the editing tax: you get a polished product demo without manually keyframing zooms or learning a video editor. Versus async recorders like Loom, you get cinematic 3D staging and motion; versus cinematic tools, you also get an AI that can record the demo for you plus a CLI for automation. It's native Apple-Silicon and local-first โ recordings and AI processing stay on your Mac โ with a genuine free tier to start.
Screenify Studio's answer
Indie hackers, technical founders, and small product or marketing teams who launch often and need professional-looking demos โ for launches, landing pages, social, sales, and support โ but don't want to become video editors. It especially fits build-in-public creators on Mac who ship fast and want their demos to look as good as the product.
Screenify Studio's answer
I'm Brjan, a solo founder building in public from Ho Chi Minh City. I kept spending weeks shipping features, then watched people barely notice them because my demo videos looked flat and amateur โ the recording took five minutes, making it look good took forty-five. So I built the tool I wished existed: one that turns rough recordings into polished product demos, without the editing tax.
Screenify Studio's answer
A native macOS app built with Rust and Tauri, with a Metal GPU rendering and export pipeline. On-device AI runs on the Apple Neural Engine and Core ML โ captions via Whisper, background removal via Apple's Vision framework. The web-demo recorder drives a real Chromium browser through Playwright, and the CLI speaks JSON so agents and scripts can drive it.
