Browser-based screen recorder adds cursor effects, subtitles without install
LivCapture is a browser-based screen recorder that layers cursor effects, click storytelling, keyboard shortcut badges, live zoom, annotations, webcam overlay, and Whisper-powered subtitles into a single recording. It runs entirely client-side using getDisplayMedia, getUserMedia, MediaRecorder, Canvas, and FFmpeg.wasm. A companion Chrome extension captures cursor coordinates and click events for real-time overlay.
