Gyazo
Gyazo captures images and video, then creates links that can be shared. It supports still images, videos, frames, webcam footage, and voice explanations, with scrolling capture and exports in JPG, PNG, GIF, and MP4. OCR recognizes text in captures and makes those words searchable. Passwords, viewer permissions, and hashed URLs provide ways to control access. Gyazo runs on Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, Android, and the web, with Chrome, Firefox, and Edge support. The free plan allows unlimited screenshot capture and uploads, and unlimited HD video recording and uploads, but only the 10 latest images are accessible and recordings are limited to 7 seconds. Gyazo Pro costs $6.99 a month on a 12-month monthly plan, or $71.88 a year. Pro supports video recording up to 10 minutes and replay recording up to 30 seconds. Teams has a five-user minimum and includes private team sharing, multi-user management, team billing, a custom subdomain, and optional Google Workspace SSO.
