About this tool

This is the honest way to record a live stream. Instead of intercepting a platform's video (which breaks its Terms), you record the tab or window while it plays: pick the tab, enable Share audio, hit Record, and the WebM file is written by your own browser — never uploaded anywhere. Perfect for saving your own streams, webinars you registered for, sports watch-alongs, or any live moment you want to keep. Your file never leaves this page — processing runs in your browser via WebAssembly; nothing is uploaded and the file is dropped from memory when you close the tab.
