I built a screen recorder that turns your janky demos into Apple keynote quality videos
the problem every builder faces: you ship something amazing but the demo looks like trash (we're talking 2014 screencapture vibes)
ShotGlass fixes this by recording your screen and making it look cinematic automatically
what you get:
> screen recording + screenshots in the same tool (no juggling apps)
> each window records as its own layer so you can move things around after
> 3D environments, custom backgrounds, and camera effects that make it feel cinematic
> zoom controls (smooth or instant), transitions, cursor styles, and background replacement
> built-in audio mixer so you can layer music and voiceover
> clean 2D mode if you want simple polish without the fancy stuff
you can even drop your recording into a 3D macbook shell and it looks identical to those slick apple presentations
making a professional demo normally means one of three options: grind for hours in premiere, hire someone expensive, or post something ugly and cross your fingers
with this you just hit record and the tool does the heavy lifting
whether you're launching on product hunt, building a landing page, pitching investors, or submitting to the app store, your demo is what people judge first
and honestly it's usually the worst part of most launches
this solves it without needing to learn video editing
I built a screen recorder that turns Mac demos into cinematic shots
2 weeks in and 159 people have bought it
It records your screen with 3D camera effects, virtual backgrounds, and a full timeline editor
Makes your product demos look way more professional without spending hours in Premiere or After Effects

@shawnRYUsmith Glad to hear. Send them via chat here on X or to the support email: [email protected] (it's in the FAQ of the site if you ever need to find it).
Lots of updates are coming so I may already be working on it, but it's always great to hear to know what to prioritise first
@dzhohola yep, all automatically generated! The above video is literally the workflow needed:
- select the windows, screen or area
- do your thing and press stop
- add a 3d section
then you get the full 3d view and auto zooms. Everythings customisable there too
πββοΈ I've gamified my own run so I can race my own ghost with the Meta Ray-Ban Display.
I built a web app for the glasses, loaded a previous GPX from Strava, and dropped game mechanics on top.
Pick up coins when you keep pace, sprint zones reward extra points if you push, and a mini leaderboard on the lens shows how you're tracking against your past self in real time.
Best part: it actually works. Seeing your ghost 20 m ahead is a way stronger nudge than any number on a watch. π
Hmm could be an issue but always worth experimenting. I A B tested it myself on two versions of the site for a while just in case.
I have a super simple object as a lookup table in a js file for my local pricing on the landing page. Paddle let you manually set the price per country so it stays fixed (i think stripe can too)
I just use the X-Vercel-IP-Country header to lookup it and itβs super simple
