Record. Edit. Publish.

From record to ready-to-publish

ScreenSei handles the whole flow — capture, a fast edit, and an export that's ready to share — so you stay in your craft instead of fighting your tools.

Screen + Camera recording

Record your display and front camera simultaneously with real-time composition. The camera bubble follows you, framed exactly how it will export.

Built-in editor

Trim, cut, and add automatic zoom without ever leaving the app. The preview is pixel-identical to the final render — what you see is what you ship.

Studio-quality export

Export crisp, high-bitrate video with smooth cursor motion and clean, denoised audio. Ready for YouTube, docs, or your team in a click.

The toolkit

Everything you need, built in

The same polish the pros use — automatic zoom, smooth cursors, studio audio and captions — without ever leaving the app.

Automatic zoom

Zoom follows your cursor and clicks, then snaps back — fully editable on the timeline with a slow push-in option.

Buttery cursor motion

Smoothed cursor path, adjustable size, custom cursors, and a spotlight to draw the eye exactly where it matters.

Studio Voice audio

One toggle strips background noise and evens out your voice with a spectral denoiser, EQ and loudness — no plugins.

On-device captions

Auto-generated subtitles transcribed entirely on your Mac. Edit the text, restyle, and export SRT.

Backgrounds & framing

Wallpapers, padding, rounded corners and a camera bubble. The preview is pixel-identical to the export — true WYSIWYG.

Export anywhere

MP4 up to 4K — high-bitrate and ready for YouTube, docs, or your team in a click.

AI Teleprompter

An invisible teleprompter that follows your voice or auto-scrolls at a steady speed. Resize it and place it anywhere — it never shows up in your recording.

Keystrokes & smart speed

Overlay the keys you press. The app detects long typing sessions and suggests speeding them up with a single click.

Smart trim

Automatically cuts the silences and dead air out of your recording — and it's fully reversible on the timeline.

Blur & highlight masks

Draw a box over anything on screen and blur it out or spotlight it. Keyframe it to track a moving window across the whole recording.

Hey everyone, welcome back to the channel.

Today I'm showing you something I've been using.

It records your screen and camera at once.

And the best part — you barely edit anything.

Let me walk you through how it works.

AI Teleprompter

Read your script. It follows your voice.

An invisible teleprompter that docks by the notch. It listens while you talk and scrolls itself — so you stay on message without breaking eye contact with the camera.

Follows your voice

On-device speech recognition tracks where you are in the script and scrolls to match. Skip a line or improvise — it keeps up. Or set a steady speed and let it auto-scroll.

Invisible on screen shares

The overlay is excluded from capture, so it never lands in your recording or on a call. Only you can see it.

Resize it, place it anywhere

Drag the panel wherever you want and scale it to any size — tuck it under the notch, park it in a corner, or make it big for a long script.

Blur & Highlight Masks

Hide what shouldn't be seen. Show what should.

Draw a box anywhere on the recording and blur out sensitive data, or spotlight the part that matters. Keyframe it so the mask tracks a moving window or field across the whole clip.

Blur sensitive data

API keys, emails, account numbers — box it once and it stays blurred for as long as you need, editable frame by frame.

Spotlight what matters

Dim everything but the region you want the viewer's eyes on, with a soft glowing highlight instead of a blur.

Keyframed, so it tracks

Move the box across the timeline and the mask follows — a field that scrolls, a window that resizes, a cursor that wanders.

Mobile Companion

Your phone is the remote now.

Pair it with a QR code and your phone becomes a wireless remote — start, pause, and stop the recording, drive your slides, and mirror the teleprompter, all without touching your Mac.

One QR code, no app store

Scan it once from the Mac and you're paired — no login, no download, no account. Add it to your home screen for a full-screen, native feel.

Start, pause, stop — from anywhere

Trigger the recording and advance your presentation slides from across the room, without breaking your shot to reach the keyboard.

The teleprompter, mirrored

Your script follows your voice right there on the phone screen. Flip on Mirror mode for a beam-splitter rig, or just prop it on your desk.

Presentation Mode

Built-in slides & lightweight dynamic backgrounds.

Elevate your tutorials with real-time text overlays and stunning, generative Canvas backgrounds. No need to edit in another app.

Dynamic backgrounds

Choose from animated backgrounds like Aurora, Fluid Mesh, Connected Particles, and Isometric Grid to give your videos a premium studio feel.

On-screen slides

Overlay titles and bullet points directly on your recording. Perfect for highlighting key takeaways without touching an external editor.

Native typography

Use beautiful native font profiles like SF Pro, New York, and Futura to keep your text crisp and perfectly integrated.

FAQ

Questions, answered

ScreenSei is a native app for macOS 14 Sonoma and later, optimized for Apple Silicon and Intel Macs. It uses Apple's ScreenCaptureKit for crisp, low-overhead capture.

ScreenSei doesn't have a traditional free trial. You can record and preview without a subscription, but exporting your recordings requires an active plan. That way you can evaluate the app before buying.

Pro unlocks export — that's the whole editor, at 4K, with no watermark. Ultra adds the two features you use while you record rather than after: the presentation overlay with animated slides, and the AI teleprompter that scrolls as you speak or by time

ScreenSei is a native macOS app focused on a fast record-to-export flow with a WYSIWYG editor — the preview is pixel-identical to the export. We pair automatic zoom and smooth cursor motion with built-in studio-grade audio denoising, at a friendlier price.

If ScreenSei isn't right for you, email us within 14 days of purchase and we'll issue a full refund — no hoops.

We use Paddle.com as our payment processor and Merchant of Record — they handle billing, taxes and invoicing on our behalf. Your card statement and receipt email will show Paddle.com or PADDLE.NET, not ScreenSei directly. That's expected and it's us.

Your subscription license activates ScreenSei on your Mac and includes every update while it's active. Manage or cancel anytime; your projects always stay on your machine.

New features ship every week.
