Shape the take
Trim in and out, split clips, ripple-delete pauses and change speed without rebuilding the project.
Native screen recording for Mac
Polished screen recordings, edited by your agent.
Kapture uses clicks, keys and scrolls to place better zooms, then opens a full timeline for the finishing touches.
Automatic zooms
Zooms that follow the work, not the pointer.
Kapture watches clicks, typing, scrolling and cursor movement to frame the part that matters. It leaves still moments alone, and every zoom stays editable.

The editor
Automatic where it helps. Editable everywhere.

Capture / 01
Record the whole conversation, not a flattened copy.
Pick a display, window or area, then bring in the sources the take needs. Kapture keeps screen, camera, microphone and system audio separate, so a noisy track or an awkward camera moment never ruins the recording underneath it.

Editing / 02
A real timeline for the decisions automation cannot make.
The first pass arrives quickly. The final call stays yours. Open the take on a multi-track timeline and change any automatic choice with the same controls you would expect from a dedicated editor.
Direct the frame
Add or redraw zoom regions, tune their timing and keep quiet moments comfortably still.
Refine the pointer
Smooth motion, change size, hide idle moments and add click ripples or sounds when they help.
Protect the details
Blur a private area, spotlight a region, crop the source and tune the canvas around it.
Mix every track
Balance microphone, system audio and music, reduce noise and duck the background under speech.
Reuse the look
Save canvas, cursor and camera treatments as presets, then bring the same finish to the next project.
Captions / 03
Captions that stay editable to the last frame.
Transcribe the take on device, correct the words and retime any cue. Choose how the track looks in the editor, then decide whether to burn it into the finished file.
On-device transcription
No upload queue and no cloud transcript.
Cue-level timing
Move one caption without disturbing the rest of the track.
Track and cue styling
Set the overall look, then emphasize an individual moment.
Optional burn-in
Keep captions editable until the final export.
Deliver / 04
One recording can become every cut you need.
Build alternate timelines from the same source media instead of duplicating a project. Keep a wide demo, a vertical reel and a square social cut together, then export each one for where it is going.
Private by default
Your footage stays on your Mac.
Recording, transcription, zoom analysis and export run locally. There is no account, upload queue or hosted project.

Questions
The practical questions.
Is Kapture free?
Yes. Recording, editing, automatic zoom, captions and agent control are free with no account or time limit. Free exports are 1080p at 30 fps and carry a small corner watermark; Pro removes the mark and raises the ceiling to 4K and 60 fps.
What does the $99 licence actually buy?
The app, and every version released in the twelve months after you buy it. When that window closes nothing is taken away — the copy you have keeps working exactly as it is, with no watermark and nothing switched off. You stop receiving newer versions until you choose to renew, and renewing extends the window from wherever it left off rather than from the day you renew.
What happens if I never renew?
Nothing. Kapture keeps working at the last version your window covered, for as long as the Mac runs it. There is no nag screen, no watermark returning, and no feature switched off. Renew only if a later version is worth it to you.
Should I buy the licence or the monthly plan?
The licence if you want to own it: it pays for itself against monthly inside a year and never expires. Monthly if you would rather try Pro for a while, or only need it for a single project.
Does anything leave my Mac?
No. Recording, transcription, zoom analysis and export run locally. Kapture has no upload queue, cloud project or hosted share link.
Can I record system audio and my microphone together?
Yes. Kapture records system audio and your microphone as separate tracks, so you can mix them after the take.
How is Kapture's automatic zoom different?
Kapture plans zooms from clicks, typing, scrolling and cursor movement instead of chasing the pointer alone. It leaves still moments alone, and every planned zoom remains editable.
Can I use my own AI agent with Kapture?
Yes. Copy Kapture's local MCP URL from Settings into Claude Code, Cursor, Codex or another MCP-compatible client. Your agent connects directly to Kapture on your Mac; there is no Kapture-hosted bot or cloud project.
What can an agent edit for me?
Kapture exposes 42 MCP tools for recording, trimming, rebuilding zooms, styling captions, making reels and exporting. The project stays open in Kapture, so every change is visible, reversible and yours to refine.
What Mac does Kapture require?
Kapture requires Apple silicon and macOS 14 or later. It is a native Mac app; there is no Windows, Linux or browser version.
