I built Highlight Studio because every screen recorder I tried was either too simple (no editing) or too complex (full NLE for a 2-minute demo).
I wanted one app that records, edits, and exports something polished — without switching tools.
What it does:
- Smart Zoom — AI watches your clicks and generates zoom keyframes automatically. No manual keyframing.
- Virtual backgrounds with custom images
- Camera branding
- Cursor effects — 3-level smoothing, post-recording resize, click sounds, and visual highlights.
- Brand kit — Logo, colors, fonts, watermarks, and 6 animated intro/outro templates. Set once, apply everywhere.
- Device frames — 27+ pixel-perfect Apple devices with real finish colors. Record your iPhone via USB and wrap it instantly.
- AI transcription — Word-level subtitles in 50+ languages.
- Multi-track editor — Trim, split, speed ramp, freeze frame, annotations, blur masks. Separate tracks for video, camera, audio, subtitles.
- AI agent support — 40+ CLI commands over TCP. Works with Claude Code and any AI agent framework.
Everything runs on the GPU. Under 100 MB app size.
It's native Swift, renders on Metal, and the entire editing pipeline is GPU-accelerated. Smart zoom alone saves me 20+ minutes per video.
Lifetime access is $55 during launch (60% off). No subscription required.
Highlight Studio offers extensive Help Center with AI chat bot that will answer all of your question about product features and how-tos.
Video has been recorded, and edited only using Highlight Studio it self.
How are you finding the balance between automation (like smart zoom and AI edits) and giving users control, especially for people who want more precise editing?
