The screen recorder your Mac won't even notice.
Records 4K at 60fps using less than 1% CPU — a zero-copy GPU pipeline where pixels never touch your processor.
Free to download, free forever to use — unlimited recording, every feature. No account. Processed exports carry a small watermark; Pro removes it.

Speed
Gone before your Mac notices.
4K at 60fps on < 1% CPU — the pixels never touch your processor, so Wispframe is off the screen before the fan even spins up.
The receipts
What recording 4K at 60fps costs your Mac.
Pixels travel straight from the GPU to the hardware encoder and never touch the CPU — so there's almost nothing to measure.

Make it look like a studio shot it.
One click frames any recording: drop it on a backdrop — gradient presets, a solid color, your wallpaper, or a blurred copy of the clip — then round the corners and add a soft shadow. Baked into the file, on the same zero-copy engine, up to 4K.
