Value

The pitch is "record once, ship immediately" - the tool handles the polish (smooth cursor, clean transitions, etc.) during capture so you skip the editing step. Good for developer demos, bug reports, documentation screenshots, and quick tutorials where you don't want to open a full video editor afterward.
