Limelight started as a live overlay for Mac a cursor spotlight, on-screen keystrokes, and freehand drawing so your audience can actually follow your pointer and the shortcuts you press.
This relaunch adds full recording. Now you hit record and Limelight auto-zooms toward your clicks, smooths your cursor, drops it on a clean background, and exports a sharp mp4 or a vertical 9:16 clip all on your Mac, nothing uploaded.
What I'm trying to do differently from the screen recorders already out there:
It shows your keystrokes and clicks right on screen perfect for coding tutorials, no separate KeyCastr window.
Pay once ($34), not a $20/month subscription. Free to try, no account.
100% offline and notarized your recordings never leave your machine.
A native macOS menu-bar app for demos, tutorials, and screen recordings. Spotlight your cursor, show the keys you press, and draw or drop text on any app — each with one hotkey. Then hit record: Limelight auto-zooms into every click, smooths your cursor, and bakes those overlays right into the video. Trim and export to mp4 or a 9:16 clip — no editing afterward. Fully offline. The cursor spotlight is free; Pro is a one-time $34 lifetime, no subscription.
Record your screen — Glide auto-zooms toward your clicks, smooths the cursor, drops it on a clean background, and exports a cinematic video. No editing skills needed. For macOS. Free to record, Pro to export.
