# Screen and Webcam Recorder

Record your screen with your camera in a small bubble, right in the browser. When you stop, the take is transcribed and ready to become clips, captions and written content.

Exemplary AI's screen and webcam recorder runs in your browser with nothing to install: share a tab, a window or your whole screen, your camera appears in a small bubble, and your microphone is mixed in. Each take stops automatically at 30 minutes. When you stop, it uploads and is transcribed, ready to become clips, captions or written content. Free plan: 500 one-time credits; files up to 500 MB and 30 min long; 720p video exports with a watermark.

## How to record your screen and webcam

1. Open the recorder and choose Screen + camera. The other modes are Screen, Camera and Audio only.
2. Pick your camera and microphone, allow access when the browser asks, and set the camera bubble's shape, corner and size.
3. Click "Choose screen & start", pick a tab, a window or your whole screen, and present as usual. Pause and resume whenever you need to.
4. Stop when you are done; at 30 minutes the recorder stops by itself. The take uploads and is transcribed.
5. Turn the transcript into clips, captions or written content such as a summary, show notes or a blog post.

## What happens after you stop

A finished take lands in your workspace like any upload, with a transcript. Cut clips from it with [AI Clips](https://exemplary.ai/ai-clips) (or select text and click "Create clip" to cut one yourself), add [subtitles](https://exemplary.ai/auto-subtitle-generator), or write from it: a summary, chapters, show notes, key takeaways, a [blog post](https://exemplary.ai/blog-post-generator), a newsletter, posts for X and LinkedIn, or a YouTube description, in a professional, casual, technical or conversational tone.

## More Than a Screen Recorder

Record, then keep working from the same take: the words are transcribed, so the recording turns into clips and written content without another upload.

### Your face and your screen together

Screen + camera mode shows you in a bubble over your screen, for tutorials, demos and walkthroughs.

### Nothing to install

The recorder runs in a browser tab; there is no app or extension to download.

### Transcribed when you stop

Each take uploads and is transcribed, so you can search it and work from its words.

### From one take to clips and posts

Turn a recording into captioned clips, or into a summary, show notes, a blog post or a newsletter.

## Common questions

### Can I record my screen and webcam at the same time?

Yes. Choose the Screen + camera mode: your screen is recorded with your camera in a small bubble, and your microphone is mixed in so your narration is captured.

### Is this a free online screen recorder with webcam?

You can use it on the Free plan, which includes 500 one-time credits; files up to 500 MB and 30 min long; 720p video exports with a watermark. A take has to fit within those file limits to upload; if it does not, the recorder offers to save it to your computer instead.

### Do I need to install the screen and webcam recorder?

No. It runs in your browser. If a browser will not let a page use your camera, microphone or screen, the recorder says so and you can upload a file instead.

### How long can one recording be?

Up to 30 minutes per take. The recorder stops by itself at that point, so record a longer session in parts.

### Is the webcam bubble part of the recorded video?

If you share your whole screen, yes: the bubble is captured in the picture. If you share one window or tab, the camera is saved as a separate track and placed for you in the editor.

### Can I record only my webcam, or only my voice?

Yes. Besides Screen + camera, the recorder has Screen, Camera and Audio only modes. Audio only makes the smallest file.

### What can I make from a screen recording with face cam?

It is transcribed, so you can cut clips from it with AI Clips or by selecting text, add captions, or write a summary, show notes, a blog post, a newsletter or social posts from it.
