Show HN: We built a native macOS screen recorder focused on speed and quality (supercut.video)
7 points by neilkinnish 452 days ago
We built a fully native Swift macOS screen recorder, with a big focus on simplicity, speed and high quality output.

We record the camera, screen and audio separately and composite them into your chosen layout on the fly as you record, we get you a shareable URL super quick and you can change your mind on the layout post recording.

We designed our online video pipeline around Mac Mini's, processing chunks of video in real-time and the code is shared with the macOS app so we are able to fully render both online and offline.

Now that we have built the baseline product we are finally ready to really start innovating.

Happy to answer any questions, appreciate any feedback.

Goodbye Loom, hello Supercut!

Supercut is the fastest and easiest way to share my screen. Really slick user experience and the output is fantastic.

Can your share your experience and observations about where Supercut excels vs Loom?
Thank you!
Loved the demo and the landing! Any plans on creating a Lifetime deal for early adopters?
Thanks! Will discuss with the team.
Great!
