The future of video starts here.
A fully open-source desktop studio for recording your screen, camera, and mic — with streaming and publishing tools when you need them.
See the macOS Beta go live to five destinations at once
Create videos. Stream everywhere. Let AI handle the tedious parts.
Videorc brings recording, streaming, and AI-assisted publishing into one desktop workflow. Exact capabilities depend on your platform, build, and plan.
Everything you need in one window
On macOS Beta, the free studio records in 4K, previews, and streams to up to five platforms at once. Premium adds 4K streaming, early live captions, and AI publishing. Windows Alpha capabilities are listed per release.
Record locally for free
Capture your screen, camera, and mic in one calm desktop app. The macOS beta supports local recording up to 4K at 60 fps; Windows Alpha uses hardware-tested quality profiles and may recommend a lower setting.
Go live — up to 5 platforms, free
The macOS beta streams to YouTube, Twitch, X, or any RTMP server — up to five destinations at once, free. Windows streaming is advertised only after its release acceptance record proves the same path.
A preview you can trust
A live preview shows what is being recorded or streamed. Windows Alpha includes a fallback path for troublesome GPUs, with any known device limits listed before download.
Quick and out of the way
Press Space to start recording and use fast keyboard search to jump anywhere — no digging through menus. Platform-specific shortcuts and permissions stay explicit.
From setup to live in seconds
This macOS beta capture shows the shared studio flow. Windows Alpha screenshots and feature claims stay separate until the corresponding build passes acceptance.
Pick what to capture
Choose your screen, your camera, and your mic, then pick how they're arranged - screen, camera, or side by side. You'll see it come together right away.
Connect your channels
Connect Twitch, YouTube, X, and custom RTMP once. Videorc remembers them safely and keeps a backup of your stream keys.
Record, go live, or both
Press Record for a free local video saved on your computer. Premium features are shown only when they are supported by the build and platform you downloaded.
Everything in your library
Where the current build supports it, recordings are saved in your library and Premium can generate titles, chapters, and highlights. Check the platform release notes for exact capabilities.
What Premium actually buys
Everything in the supported local studio stays free, multistreaming included. On macOS Beta, Premium adds 4K streaming, live captions, and publishing AI; Windows Alpha availability is listed feature by feature before purchase.
4K streaming
On macOS Beta, the free studio streams to up to five destinations at 1080p30. Premium raises the single-destination ceiling to 4K30 or 1080p60 where the platform accepts it. Windows Alpha support is listed per release.
From stop to published
On supported builds, the AI publish pipeline can turn a finished recording into a transcript, title, description, chapters, and highlights. Windows Alpha support is listed per release.
Live captions on your stream and recording, with a synced .srt.
Smart-zoom, noise cleanup, and silence removal — experiments Premium members get first.

“Recording my first ever video and started falling into the trap of comparing video software. Installed a few. So many settings, paid features, and unnecessary friction. Then I opened @videorc and everything became simpler. I found everything I needed in less than a minute. Free and open source FTW. thx @orcdev”
