Let AI agents record, edit, and export demos of real macOS apps through MCP.

Tài liệu

Beautiful screen captures, without the effort

Click to record, do your thing, and get a polished demo video automatically.

Or ask Claude or ChatGPT to record, make and edit the entire demo for you.

Start by selecting a window, screen or area

Auto window detection across multiple windows and monitors.

Or let Claude or ChatGPT film it for you

Connect Claude Code, Codex, OpenClaw, OpenCode or another compatible AI agent through MCP. Ask it to record an app demo, take a screenshot or edit a recording in ShotGlass. Real apps, smooth cursor movement, and a result you can make your own.

  • Film a website walkthrough from one sentence

    "Film a 30-second demo of browsing my website and export it for social." The agent stages the browser, drives the pointer through the pages with real clicks, and hands back an auto-zoomed MP4.
  • Teach something in Google Sheets

    Every character arrives as a real keystroke, so a viewer can follow the formula being typed. Ask for a budget totalled with =SUM and that is what gets filmed.
  • Demo your own app for a release post

    Name your app and the task. The agent opens it at its default size, works out every coordinate from what is on screen, and walks one real task end to end.

Get automatic zoom

ShotGlass makes things look cinematic straight after shooting.

  • Smart automatic zoom

    Straight after recording, ShotGlass automatically zooms in on the actions you perform on screen.
  • Manual zoom

    Simply drag your zooms on the timeline or click to add new custom ones.
  • Easy editing

    Adjust zooms, trim, cut and speed up.

Make 3D animations like an Apple Ad

Customisable and clear backgrounds

Cluttered background? Don't worry, ShotGlass swaps it out automatically, making every screenshot and screen recording look professional.

  • Removes that clutter on your desktop for you, keeping focus on what you're recording.

  • Choose from a selection of real Mac backgrounds, upload or make something custom.

  • Add shadow and padding

Smooth animations and a custom cursor

Effects that normally take hours are now instant.

  • Smooth cursor movements

    Cursor movements are automatically smoothed for professional-looking recordings.
  • Animated transitions

    Add professional transitions between scenes with a single click.
  • Make your cursor bigger and animated

    Make what you're doing easy to see.

Add annotations

Highlight important parts of your screenshots and screen recordings with the annotation tools.

Record cameras, microphone and system audio

ShotGlass can record and mix multiple video and audio sources with your screen recordings

Messed around with it for like 30 min, hit my first render and just bought it. Looks sick, the aesthetics are great, awesome work.

The biggest win here is honestly killing the 5 apps for one demo workflow. That friction alone stops most people from making good product videos consistently.

The post record multi-window editing is a genuinely smart feature; it solves a pain point most screen recorders still ignore.

Shot glass by the man @jakemangerdev is an awesome product tool I’m using for product recordings. Google Flow is also great for some of the other mockups you may need too. ElevenLabs has some amazing tools as well. Good Luck!
