4K 60fps Recording
Buttery smooth, native resolution. Every pixel, every frame.
Native Apple Silicon Performance
Optimized for M1, M2, M3, and M4 Macs for maximum performance and battery efficiency. Intel build also available for older Mac models.
The Screen Studio Alternative That's Free
Screen Studio costs $89 with no free plan. Cubix Capture offers the same cinematic auto-zoom, gradient backgrounds, and smooth cursors — with a completely free Starter tier. No credit card, no account required.
Why Mac Creators Choose Cubix Capture Over Kite
Kite requires post-production editing after recording. Cubix Capture applies cinematic zooms, gradient backgrounds, and smooth cursors the moment you stop recording. No timeline, no exports, no extra steps. The polished version is the original version.
