I Built a Free AI Screen Recorder That Auto-Edits Your Videos

I Built a Free AI Screen Recorder That Auto-Edits Your Videos

Every content creator knows the pain: you spend 3-5 hours editing a 10-minute screen recording. Cropping dead space, adding zooms, fixing transitions... it's tedious, it's boring, and it eats your life.

I built AI Screen Recorder to fix exactly that. It's a free, open-source tool that records your screen AND auto-edits the result β€” cropping active regions, adding smart transitions, and highlighting clicks automatically.

What it does

  • 🎯 Auto-crop & zoom β€” detects the active region of your screen and crops automatically
  • ✨ Smart transitions β€” one-click professional transitions (fade, zoom, slide)
  • πŸ–±οΈ Click detection β€” highlights mouse clicks and scrolls automatically (perfect for tutorials)
  • πŸ’» Cross-platform β€” works on Windows, Mac, and Linux
  • πŸ†“ 100% free & open source β€” no watermarks, no subscriptions, no catch

Why open source?

Most tools in this space are expensive ($15-30/month) and platform-locked. Screen Studio, for example, charges $29/mo and only works on Mac. I believe great recording tools should be free and available everywhere.

That's why the entire project is MIT-licensed and hosted on Vercel + GitHub Pages β€” zero cost to run, zero cost to use.

The tech stack

  • React + TypeScript + Vite
  • Tailwind CSS
  • Zustand for state management
  • Deployed on Vercel (free tier) + GitHub Pages

Pulled up the page β€” the tech sounds great, but the hero undersells it. "Record screens like a pro" could be any of 50 recorders; your actual differentiator (it edits the video for you) is buried in the subhead, and none of the claims there is quantified β€” "turns a 30-min raw recording into a 5-min tutorial" would land harder than "AI-powered." Biggest gap: no before/after demo clip or GIF above the fold, so visitors take the auto-editing on faith. Genuine positive: the "100% Free / No Watermark / Cross-Platform" badges answer the three questions everyone asks about free recorders β€” smart placement. I do landing page teardowns for a living β€” kimmy.inkboxwire.com/roasts has free one-line examples from 550+ recent launches if the pattern is useful.
