Why REQO

Most free screen recorders stop the moment you press stop: you get a file, and then you go and find something else to cut it in. That handoff is where the time goes.

REQO puts the recorder and the editor in the same tab, so the recording you just made is already on a timeline, already transcribed, and already one link away from being shared.

What free covers, and what Pro adds

Record and share with no signup; a recording made without an account is deleted after 24 hours. A free account keeps your recordings and adds auto captions.

Free exports and share pages include a small REQO badge. Go Pro to remove it.

The table is the same one the pricing page uses, so the two cannot disagree.

No download: it runs in your browser

The recorder uses the screen capture built into desktop browsers, so there is no app, no extension and no installer. It works in Chrome, Edge and Firefox on a computer. Phones and tablets cannot share a screen, so on one the page tells you to open it on a computer.

When you start, the browser asks what to share: your entire screen, one window or one browser tab. Add your webcam and microphone, or leave either off.

Sound from your computer comes through that same share dialog. Share a tab in Chrome or Edge, or your entire screen on Windows, and leave the audio box ticked. A single window, or a whole screen on a Mac, shares no computer sound. Your microphone records in every supported browser, and the two are mixed into one audio track.

While you record

Turn on the countdown timer to get a few seconds to settle before capture starts; Esc cancels it. Pause and resume as often as you need, and the pauses are left out of the video.

Keyboard shortcuts keep your hands off the mouse: Space starts and stops, P pauses and resumes, M switches the microphone and V the webcam. Press ? for the full list.

There is no time limit on a recording, on any plan, so a long walkthrough or a full lecture does not get cut off.

After you press stop

The recording opens in the editor in the same tab. There is no file to find and upload again.

Transcribe it and cut by deleting words: the false start, the "um", the pause while you found the right window. Add captions from the same transcript, trim the ends, add music, then download an MP4 or copy a share link that plays without an account.
