Product demo videos, made on Mac

Record once.
Export for every platform.

Recordcake records your screen, then turns that one recording into the exact files Steam, YouTube and the App Store ask for. No more looking up specs and converting by hand.

Built for product demos

Everything you need to get from a working app to an uploaded video.

Record a display, a window or an area

Capture the whole screen, a single window, or drag out just the part that matters.

System audio and microphone

Record the sound your Mac is playing, your own voice-over, or both. No extra audio driver to install.

Platform export presets

Pick Steam, YouTube, Mac App Store, X or GIF. Resolution, frame rate, codec and bitrate are already set.

Export several formats at once

Tick every platform you publish to and get all the files in one go, named so you can tell them apart.

Checks before you export

App Store previews must be 15 to 30 seconds. Recordcake tells you before exporting, not after the upload is rejected.

Trim the start and the end

Cut off the part where you reach for the stop button. No timeline to learn.

One recording, every format

Keep a full-quality master and export it again whenever you need another platform.

  • Steam
  • YouTube
  • Mac App Store
  • X
  • GIF

Chrome Web Store promo videos are YouTube links, so the YouTube preset covers those too.

How it works

Three steps, from the menu bar.

  1. Record

    Click the menu bar icon, choose what to capture, and start.

  2. Pick platforms

    Stop, trim if needed, and tick the platforms you publish to.

  3. Upload

    Every file lands in one folder, ready to upload as it is.

Free to record. Pro when you publish.

The free download is a complete screen recorder. Pro is a single one-time purchase that removes the limits on exporting — no subscription, nothing renews.
