Highlight Studio

During recording, Highlight Studio tracks cursor position and click events. After you stop, it analyzes click clusters and mouse movement to place zoom keyframes at the moments that matter. Each zoom becomes a draggable clip on the timeline, so you can resize, move, or delete it. The selling point is zero manual keyframing when you don't want it, and full control when you do.

The app transcribes your audio with word-level timestamps and builds a subtitle track automatically. It handles more than 50 languages, which covers most tutorial and demo use cases. Subtitles sit on their own track, so you can edit or restyle them without touching the video. Transcription is the one feature that spends credits.

This is a full timeline editor, not a trimmed-down capturer. You get separate tracks for video, camera, audio, voice-overs, subtitles, and annotations. That means speed ramps from 0.25x to 2x, frame holds while audio keeps playing, and per-track control over volume, visibility, and timing. Everything stays editable. Annotations and subtitles live on their own layers instead of being baked into the picture.

Mouse movement gets smoothed in post with three levels of intensity, so the cursor glides instead of jumping around. You can also scale the cursor after recording, since it's tracked separately from the video. Click sounds and visual ripples pair with each mouse action, with adjustable color, radius, and intensity, which makes step-by-step tutorials easier to follow.

Connect an iPhone or iPad over USB and Highlight Studio records the screen directly. You can then wrap that recording in an accurate device frame covering more than 27 Apple models, with the correct screen radius, notch, and home button for each one. Color finishes match the real hardware, and exports can carry transparent alpha at App Store Connect's preview resolution.

Set your logo, colors, fonts, and watermark position once, and they apply to every export. There are six animated intro and outro templates that auto-fill your logo, name, and tagline, plus 13 built-in style presets for backgrounds, camera layouts, and export settings. Set it once. The brand kit keeps a whole series visually consistent without repeated setup.

The background panel includes thousands of royalty-free images you can search or filter, and royalty-free audio tracks you can preview and drop onto the timeline. Cursor packs swap the pointer for a minimal, bold, or branded style. There's also a built-in teleprompter that scrolls word by word while you record, so your eyes stay on camera.

A command-line tool and skill system expose 40+ commands over a local TCP socket using newline-delimited JSON. Any AI agent framework can record screens, edit timelines, add effects, and export videos programmatically. That's the whole point. A natural-language prompt like "record for 30 seconds, zoom on clicks, add subtitles, export MP4" can drive the whole flow.
