Record your product walkthrough with screen, camera, audio, cursor, and keystrokes all in sync. Add subtitles, clean it up fast, and publish a polished demo without becoming a video editor.
Hey Product Hunt! I’m Aleksei, maker of Stage.
I built Stage because creating a polished product demo still feels way harder than it should. Most screen recorders are either too basic, too heavy, too expensive, or they turn a simple walkthrough into a video editing project.
Stage is a free macOS app for recording product demos. After recording, you can clean things up: add subtitles, adjust the webcam, customize or hide the cursor, show keystrokes, and add a background.
I would love feedback from founders, designers, PMs, engineers, and anyone who records product walkthroughs.

I hate how much time I waste turning raw recordings into decent demos. This tool seems to handle everything in one flow - synced recording, subtitles, quick cleanup.
How fast is the editing process in practice? Can you usually get a polished video out in under 10 minutes?
@hsr88 that’s the exact problem I had. I designed it for fast output. Creating a demo with Stage is totally doable in 10 minutes if you’re happy with the recording. The editing process itself is super simple.
Love both the simplicity of the product and the fact that it solves the problem I have: making any type of the video would turn into the nightmare we so-so result. Thanks for launching this one @kipin :)

Does it have auto zoom ?

@shuvodip yes, it has two zoom modes: auto zoom, which follows your mouse pointer, and manual zoom, which stays in a fixed position.
Hey Aleksei, congratulations with the launch 👏
The UI looks great and the app has many nice features!
Does it support importing your own video for quick edits, e.g. adding manual zoom?

@petersamokhin thank you! It doesn’t support video uploads yet, but I have plans to extend the editor’s capabilities and support video uploads.
Loved the product, i haven't played with bg yet but having animated bg would be cool for high production screen demos.
