Primary Metric 101

Turn your team's real workflows into AI training data

Screencap records how work actually happens: screen, clicks, keystrokes, window context and teams can use it to turn real workflows into structured datasets for automation and AI training. Consent and privacy are enforced while recording so most sensitive apps are blocked before anything is written, and every trace is scrubbed and reviewed before it leaves a machine. macOS, open source. Try it solo with a free trial, or talk to us about a team pilot.

Hey - congrats on the launch! How do you get consistent labeling out of messy real usage? Real workflows are noisy next to curated demos.

Blocking password managers and banking at record time is the right instinct, and it's the easy half. The harder half is the app that's fine 95% of the time. Our CRM is a perfectly normal thing to record right up until someone opens a customer record, and no app level blocklist catches that.Is there anything working at the content level rather than the app level, or is the review step before upload doing that job? Asking because "I have to review every clip" is the thing that quietly kills daily use.

Hey people!We built Screencap mainly because knowledge inside teams keeps getting lost. Sometimes it lives in someone's head, and when that person leaves, it leaves with them. And even when nobody leaves, teams that move fast rarely remember every step it took to get something done. So when it's time to repeat a workflow, we lose hours trying to reconstruct what we did before. What if the things that matter had permanent memory?That's what Screencap is: a screen recorder for your Mac that keeps everything on your device and makes your work searchable, by you and by your AI tools if you connect them. Sensitive stuff like password managers and banking is blocked while recording, so it's never even written to disk. Nothing leaves your Mac unless you choose to upload it, and even then it's scrubbed and you review it first.We still have a lot to improve, and that's exactly why we're launching now. We want to build this together with a community and shape the path forward with the people using it. It's also why we're completely open source. And we're committed to making it accessible to everyone, not just technical people: download, hit record, done.Honest feedback means a lot to us. What would you need to trust a tool like this enough to leave it on all day?
