What is FastCapture?
🎬 VIDEO RECORDING
Record anything on your screen with multiple source options:
- Tab - Record the current browser tab with audio
- Desktop - Record your entire screen or a specific window
- Region - Draw a custom rectangle to record only a specific area
- Camera - Record from your webcam
Export your recordings in WebM (VP8/VP9) format. Pro users can also export in MP4 (H.264) or GIF (animated clips).
Recording controls:
- Pause & Resume - Take a break and continue recording later
- Discard - Delete the recording without saving
- Configurable countdown - 3s, 5s, or 10s delay before recording starts
- Customizable keyboard shortcuts to start and stop recording instantly
📸 SCREENSHOT CAPTURE
Capture any part of any webpage with four powerful modes:
- Visible Area - Capture exactly what you see on screen
- Full Page - Automatically scroll and stitch the entire webpage into a single image
- Region - Draw a rectangle to capture a specific area
- All Tabs - Capture every open tab in the current window at once
Save your screenshots as PNG (lossless), JPG, WebP (Pro), or PDF. Full-page and multi-tab captures work seamlessly with all formats, including multi-page PDFs.
?? ANNOTATION TOOLS
Draw, write, and highlight directly on any webpage:
- Freehand drawing with adjustable brush size and color
- Text, sticky notes, arrows, and shapes
- Blur tool to hide sensitive information before capturing
- Laser pointer for live presentations
- Image insertion for logos, diagrams, and references
- Three modes: edit (draw), display (view annotations), hidden (clean page)
- Side panel mode: annotation controls stay invisible to screen recordings
Annotate before or after your capture. Everything is rendered as a transparent overlay - the page itself is never modified.
🎥 CAMERA OVERLAY
Add a floating webcam overlay to your recordings. Perfect for tutorials, presentations, and product demos. Choose from multiple shapes, resize and reposition freely, and toggle visibility during recording.
? QUICK CAPTURE
Enable Quick Capture in settings to instantly capture a region the moment you release the mouse - no need to click Confirm. Ideal for rapid-fire screenshots when you need to capture multiple areas quickly.
📁 AUTO-SAVE

- Auto-save videos to a custom folder (default: FastCapture/Videos)
- Auto-save images to a custom folder (default: FastCapture/Images)
- Smart filename templates with page title, date, time, and counters
Combined with the "Download" after-capture option, you can capture and save in a single click - no preview window, no interruption.
