Screenix
Add to Chrome

A cursor so smooth it looks animated by hand.

Screenix records the page without your system cursor, then redraws a crisp, larger cursor that glides between positions, bumps on clicks and fades when you rest. Every setting stays editable after you record.

The short answer

Record the mouse as data, then draw a better cursor.

Updated October 2026

  • The page is captured without the system cursor, and mouse position, clicks and cursor shape are recorded separately.
  • A spring simulation at 120 Hz turns jittery hand movement into smooth curves.
  • Clicks get a bump plus a ripple, highlight, halo or burst effect. Drags squeeze the cursor slightly.
  • Pick from seven cursor themes and change size, smoothing, sway, motion blur and shadow at any time.

Why it matters

Viewers follow the cursor, not the page

In a demo, the cursor is the narrator. When it's tiny, shaky and teleports between buttons, viewers lose track of what happened. Most recorders capture the system cursor straight into the video, so the only fix is to re-record with a steadier hand.

Screenix keeps the cursor out of the picture until the end. Because it's drawn at render time, you can make it bigger for small screens, smoother for fast movements, or hide it while it rests, without recording again.

What you can tune

Every part of the cursor is a setting

The defaults are tuned to match the Screenix desktop app: a cursor about 6.5% of the video width, medium smoothing, a little sway and motion blur. Change any of them in the Cursor panel and the preview updates instantly.

  • Themes: macOS Tahoe, macOS Dark, Mochi, AOSP, Mocu, Kenney and Mint
  • Size, smoothing speed, sway, motion blur and shadow
  • Click effects: ripple, highlight, halo or burst
  • The right shape for each element: arrow, hand, text cursor and more
  • Hide when idle, with an adjustable delay, or lock one cursor type for the whole video

Sharp at any zoom

Drawn, not scaled

Cursors baked into a recording turn into blurry blobs as soon as you zoom in. Screenix draws the cursor from vector artwork at the final output size, including inside auto zooms and 4K exports, so its edges stay crisp.

What you get

Every detail of a good demo,
handled for you.

The cursor, rebuilt

A cursor that looks animated by hand

Screenix records the page without your system cursor, then draws a crisp macOS-style one in its place, with spring smoothing, click bumps, motion blur and a soft fade when you stop moving. Seven cursor themes, all adjustable.

Auto zoom

Zooms that follow your clicks

Screenix zooms in on every click and pans with the cursor, so viewers see what you did without squinting. Keep the automatic zooms or move, resize and add your own on the timeline.

Add to Chrome

Follows your tabs

Switch tabs and the recording comes with you

Open a link, jump to another tab or reload the page. Screenix keeps recording whichever tab is in front in the same window, so a whole flow fits in one take.

Know before you install

Tabs only,
and it follows you between them.

Screenix for Chrome records the tab in front of you, so it can draw a perfect cursor over pure page pixels.

Records browser tabs

Screenix captures the page in the tab you're on, at full quality, without your system cursor.

Follows you between tabs

Switch tabs, open links or reload in the same window and the recording keeps going in one take.

Tab audio from the first tab

Your mic and camera record throughout. Page sound comes from the tab you started on.

Not your whole screen

It doesn't capture your desktop, other apps or other windows. On Linux, the Screenix desktop app does.

FAQ

We have answers.

It captures the tab through Chrome's DevTools screencast, which contains only page pixels. That's also why Chrome shows a "started debugging this browser" bar while you record.
