Cap - Open Source Loom Alternative

Hey, everyone 👋 It's been an amazing journey so far building Cap over the last 6 months. The support from everyone whilst building, testing and iterating on what Cap is has been crazy. Without you I couldn't have done it and I'm so happy to finally launch. However, there's still a lot to do. This is the first version of Cap. The aim isn't to be the open source alternative to Loom, it is to be the open source successor. And together - we'll do it. Right now Cap is a little rough around the edges - but I'm fixing any reported feedback/bugs/edge cases asap. Thank you so much 🥹

Have been watching Richie build a killer alternative to Loom for the last couple of months — super excited to see this finally launch! Huge congrats 💪

hahah, at first glance I saw 'Rich' in the name and thought, 'wow Cal is launching another tool? Sweet." Turns out there's no relation to @peer_rich I assume, just me being too tired while using Producthunt. but...hoping the 2 people with Rich in their name can take on the world with Open Source alternatives 😆🚀 Signing up to try the free version! Huge congrats on your launch! Landing looks amazing.

Congrats on launching Cap. Been following Richie’s progress in the COSS space for a while. So much love in the details and man this guy ships 💪 Big plus: killer 3 letter domain

Congrats! Downloading right now

finally I can switch from Loom 🖤🖤 And the fact it’s OSS is just amazing 🤩

Got the chance to build it on Windows off GitHub. Can't wait for the official release! Love OSS!

Been following cap since its first announcement I previously put out a call for an OS Loom alternative Been a beta tester for a couple of months Really great product being built by a great builder lots of potential and cool things planned excited for Loom's successor to keep growing

Seeing the detail and thought going into building this has been inspiring Richie, I know this is going to be a top-tier product, good luck with the launch!

super cool, go OSS!

I've been following your progress ever since you pitched me this idea! Great stuff, dude!

Will there be a browser extension for this? Or its more focussed to work from the website only?

This is amazing, going to try it out immediately! I’ve been waiting for quite a while for this launch 🫶

Been watching you build Cap on X for a while now. Congrats on the launch, Richie! 🎉

Loom is way too bloated these days. Finally there's a good alternative, and it's open source too!

awesome product richie! love that it’s oss too!

Waiting for this for a long time. Finally a good open source competitor for loom!
