Record
Capture the screen, cursor, and you
Record your full screen or a single window with system audio and microphone, and add a webcam bubble you can shape and position. Guide Studio captures your real cursor every shape, click, and movement so it can polish it later.
- Full screen or single window, with system + mic audio
- Webcam picture-in-picture with masks and placement
- Real cursor capture for clicks and motion
Polish
One click makes it look produced
Automatic zoom follows your cursor, dead air gets trimmed, and the cursor path smooths itself out. Drop the recording onto a background, round the corners, add a shadow, and it looks like it took hours in seconds.
- Auto-zoom and pan that track the action
- Smart trim removes the dead air
- Backgrounds, padding, rounded corners, and shadows
Direct with AI
Tell the editor what you want
Ask the built-in AI assistant to make the changes 'trim the boring parts', 'add a zoom at 0:15', 'speed up 5s to 12s'. Or hand the AI demo recorder a URL and a goal and let it capture and narrate a full walkthrough on its own.
- Natural-language editing. No timeline wrangling
- AI demo recorder navigates a site and narrates it
- AI voiceover and on-device auto-captions

FAQ
Guide Studio, answered
Guide Studio is a desktop app for recording your screen and turning it into a polished product video. It handles the capture, the zoom and cursor effects, backgrounds, captions, and voiceover.
Guide Pro builds interactive, clickable demos you embed on a page. Guide Studio produces finished video. The MP4 or GIF you'd post to your site, a launch tweet, or a training library. Many teams use both: an interactive demo to explore, a video to watch.
Only if you want to. One-click polish adds zooms, trims dead air, and cleans up the cursor automatically. You can also just tell the built-in AI assistant what to change, 'trim the boring parts', 'add a zoom at 0:15', 'speed up this section'.
Yes. Give the AI demo recorder a URL and a goal and it navigates the site itself, capturing the flow with narration written as it goes as a first draft you can refine.
MP4 or GIF, in whatever aspect ratio and resolution you need for the web, social, or docs.
