In their own words
Cap
Cap is an open-source screen recording and sharing platform with Instant, Studio, and Screenshot modes. Instant Mode uploads as recording happens and copies a share link when recording stops. Studio Mode records locally in 4K at 60fps with separate screen, camera, and microphone tracks, then supports editing and export. Editing tools include privacy masks, automatic zoom, captions, animated text, scenes, color grades, and audio tracks. Share pages can include comments, reactions, transcripts, and chapters; viewers can watch in a browser without an account. Users can choose Cap Cloud, connect S3-compatible storage or Google Drive, or self-host. Cap includes a Loom video importer and says its code is fully open source under AGPL. Cap Cloud is described as having SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 controls and HIPAA compliance, with signed BAAs available for organizations handling PHI. The Free plan is for personal use; commercial use requires a paid plan. Cap Pro Annual costs $8.16 a month, billed annually.
