Auto Zoom
Auto zoom from real interactions
The zoom follows what you actually do: your clicks, typing, and scrolling, instead of pushing in at random. Adjust, add, or remove any of it in the editor.

Chrome Extension
Record focused product demos in one take
FocusTake records a browser tab and turns it into a clean demo. The zoom follows your real clicks, typing, and scrolling, the cursor moves smoothly, and you export WebM right on your machine.

Choose a browser tab
Pick the tab you want to demo. Browser Tab is the recommended source, and tab audio is optional.
- 02
Record your run-through
Walk through your product once. FocusTake captures the cursor, clicks, typing, scrolling, selection, and URL changes as you go.
- 03
Auto zoom finds the focus
Those interactions turn into zoom moments on their own, so the view follows the action. No keyframing by hand.

Polish and export WebM
Tune the background, layout, cursor, and motion in the local editor, then export a clean WebM straight from your machine.
Features
What makes a demo look clean
A focused tool for browser demos. It isn't a full video editor or a general-purpose recorder, and it doesn't try to be.
Smooth Cursor
Smooth cursor overlay
Shaky mouse movement gets smoothed into steady, readable motion, so a walkthrough looks closer to a studio recording than a raw screen grab.
Local Editor
A focused local editor
A tool rail on the left, preview and timeline in the middle, export panel on the right. The controls for background, layout, cursor, motion, and zoom are packed in but stay readable.
Layout
Background, aspect ratio & framing
Set background, aspect ratio, padding, corner radius, and shadow to frame the capture for YouTube, X, TikTok, or a docs embed.
Local Export
Local WebM export
Render the final WebM on your own device. Nothing is sent through a cloud editor, so the recording stays with you.
Free / Pro
The only difference is the watermark
Free and Pro record and edit the same way, with the same resolution, length, and bitrate controls. A local Pro license just removes the export watermark.

Early feedback
Built for people who ship demos
Founders, indie hackers, product marketers, and support teams.
These quotes are placeholders for now. Real feedback will go here before launch.
“The first take looked like I'd spent an hour editing it. The auto zoom just lands on the right moments.”
“Recording a tab and getting a clean WebM locally is exactly the workflow I wanted.”
“The smooth cursor is the small thing that makes a walkthrough feel professional.”
“I use it for changelog clips. Record once, tidy it up, post it.”
“Support replies with a 20-second demo now. Faster than typing out the steps.”
“Zoom that follows real clicks and typing beats keyframing every push by hand.”
Pricing
Recording and quality are free. Pro removes the watermark.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Straight answers about what this first version does.
Does it support MP4?
Not yet. The first version exports WebM locally. MP4 export is on the roadmap, but it isn't in the current build.
Does it record the whole screen?
Yes — you can record the entire screen or an application window as a plain recording. FocusTake is built around the browser tab, though: the enhancements (auto zoom, event capture, smooth cursor, and the camera overlay) apply to Browser Tab recordings.
Is my recording processed locally?
Yes. In this first version, recording, editing, and WebM export all happen on your device, so the capture stays with you.
What does Pro unlock?
A local Pro license removes the export watermark. Resolution, length, and bitrate aren't gated — recording and the quality controls are free either way.
Which browser is supported?
FocusTake is a Chrome extension and runs on Chrome. It uses Chrome permissions to record the selected tab and to run the extension's editor pages.
How does auto zoom work?
It watches your interactions (clicks, typing, scrolling, selection, and URL changes) and turns them into zoom moments you can adjust, add, or remove in the editor.
