ScreencastOMatic

ScreencastOMatic, now known as ScreenPal, is a screen recording and video editing software that allows users to capture their computer screen, webcam, or both simultaneously. It is designed for a wide range of users, from educators and students to business professionals and content creators, seeking to create instructional videos, presentations, tutorials, or share their screen activity.

The software offers a straightforward interface that enables users to select the recording area, choose their audio input (microphone or system audio), and start recording with a single click. ScreenPal provides basic video editing tools, including trimming, cutting, adding text overlays, annotations, and zoom effects. Users can also add narration and incorporate webcam footage into their recordings.

ScreenPal offers both a free version with certain limitations and paid subscriptions that unlock advanced features and remove watermarks. The free version typically includes a time limit on recordings and a watermark on exported videos. Paid plans provide unlimited recording time, higher resolution exports, and access to a broader suite of editing tools and cloud storage. The platform is accessible via a desktop application for Windows and macOS, and also offers a web-based recorder for quick captures. ScreenPal is frequently used in educational settings for creating course content and for corporate training and communication.
