A high-performance, native macOS screen recorder built for speed. OwnClip features a strict local-first architecture and on-device AI processing—meaning your recordings, edits, and intelligence workflows happen entirely on your Mac with absolute privacy.

Looks very cool.
When we record these videos, we want to be able to share a URL so someone else can watch it. How do you share a video or screenshot if everything lives on your Mac?

@michaelcyger Thanks , In OwnClip, we solve this with a feature called Smart Share.
How it works: While videos record locally on your Mac we also provide a way to back them up through your private Google Drive (additional private services will be added in the near future - but the key here is you own your data ), Smart Share instantly and securely uploads the file to the cloud in the background.
You immediately get a shareable link, and the recipient can watch the video directly in their browser without downloading anything.
Rebranding: You can also fully customize the viewing page. Add your own logo and brand colors so the shared link looks completely professional and tailored to your business.
The local-first + Apple Neural Engine angle is what sells me — I record a lot of app demo footage and hate that most recorders ship it to someone's cloud by default. Curious how Smart Share handles the trade-off: once a clip goes to Drive for the shareable link, is the on-device transcription/OCR still kept local only?

@lennoxbeflying We will offer in our next builds - to embed the transcription in the video file or as an additional file to the "shared" package. I assume we will share this update in the next few days.
local-first on screen capture is the right default — memory pressure on long recordings is where on-device processing usually falls apart. the streaming-vs-batch call there is the interesting part.

@tomer_weiss2 makes sense — pushing the stream to a cache file sidesteps the ram ceiling cleanly. the seam i'd watch is random-seek latency on a multi-gig cache file mid-download, but native disk access probably keeps that tight.

@qifengzheng Today, Apple ARM NVMes are fine to address such files. So it shouldn't be an issue.

What does AI do? I'm not sure to understand

@fberrez1 Hi there, OwnClip features a local-first AI architecture that runs entirely on-device using your Mac's Apple Neural Engine and other small models we use. Features like instant on-device transcription, smart audio enhancement, OCR , WebCamera effects, and others.

@tomer_weiss2 very interesting, thanks for answering
Really cool tool.
Didn't thought someone could pack so many useful stuff in a single tool.
Liked the transcription, screenshots history and of course the editing is really great.
