Screen recordings that
edit themselves
Glideo records your screen and does the editing for you. The camera zooms toward your clicks, the cursor glides instead of jittering, and the frame lands on a styled canvas. You never touch a keyframe.

Watch Glideo do the camera work
A screen recording edited in Glideo on macOS. Every zoom, pan, and cursor move is generated from the recorded clicks. Nothing here was keyframed by hand.
You record. Glideo does the camera work.
Recording and rendering are separate passes, so you can change the motion at any point after the fact.
Record
Glideo captures your display at full resolution while logging your mouse movement and clicks to a timestamped event timeline.
Plan
Glideo reads that timeline and plans the camera for you: each burst of clicks becomes a smooth zoom-in, a hold, and an ease back out.
Render
A second pass crops each frame to the moving camera, composites it onto a styled canvas, and encodes the final video.
The editing you'd normally do by hand
What Glideo does
Automatic zoom & pan
The camera pushes toward where you click and eases back out when activity stops. Generated from your input, not keyframed by hand.
Cursor smoothing
Glideo swaps the twitchy system cursor for a larger, smoothed one that glides across the frame.
Styled canvas
Your recording lands on a finished canvas: padding, rounded corners, a drop shadow, and a gradient or wallpaper background.
Editable motion
Every zoom is a segment on a timeline: retime it, resize it, add one at the playhead, or reset to the automatic plan.
Reopenable projects
A project keeps the raw capture and the event timeline in an open .glideo folder, so you can re-render any time.
Private by design
Recording, planning, and rendering all happen on your Mac. Nothing is uploaded, and there is no account.
Raw capture in, share-ready video out
Backgrounds, padding, corner radius, and shadow are applied at render time, so you can change the style and re-export without recording again.
16:9 for YouTube, 9:16 for everywhere else
Export 16:9 for YouTube or 9:16 for Reels, Shorts, and TikTok, up to 4K and with no watermark. Every format is free.
Made for product demos, dev tools, and tutorials
Anywhere a screen recording has to hold attention, the camera work is what separates a demo from a screencast.
Product demos
Record a feature walkthrough once and get a launch-ready demo video: the zoom follows your clicks, so the viewer always looks where you want them to.
Dev tools & changelogs
Show a CLI, an IDE plugin, or a dashboard without the viewer squinting at small text. Glideo zooms into the terminal or panel you're actually using.
Tutorials & docs
Drop short, polished clips into READMEs, docs, and support answers. Projects stay reopenable, so you can re-export when the UI changes.
Free means free
Glideo is the complete recorder, planner, and renderer, free for individuals with every feature unlocked and no watermark on export. There is no account and no trial clock. It runs on donations; companies using it in a professional setting arrange an enterprise contract.
