What it does
Pagecorder is an API that records your web page as video, including screen and audio. It's performance-oriented and supports 60 FPS at 4K. Just add two JavaScript calls to your page to signal the start and end of the recording, post the link (or a self-contained ZIP bundle) to the API, and voilà! Use it for social video from HTML templates, animated dashboards, product demos, or CSS/Canvas/WebGL motion graphics. Recordings are billed per second. Failed jobs are free.
Pagecorder is an API that records a website
Pagecorder is an API that loads your URL in a browser, captures the screen and audio at 60 FPS, and delivers an MP4. Generate video from HTML, CSS, and JavaScript programmatically. Add two lines of JavaScript to your page. Pagecorder does the rest. Call window.pagecorder('start') when your page is ready to begin recording, and window.pagecorder('stop') when it should end. These calls are silently ignored in normal browsers, so your page works everywhere. <script> // Start recording when the page loads window . pagecorder ( 'start' ); // ... your animation or dynamic content runs ... // Stop after 10 seconds setTimeout (() => window . pagecorder ( 'stop' ), 10000 ); </script> 2 Submit a…from pagecorder.com

Hi HN, I've been working on this project for the last 5 months, inspired by Screen Studio but runs 100% in the browser. Here is a demo of the editor: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k7-etsFZgPI One of the big challenges of using the browser is getDisplayMedia, the API for recording screens, doesn't provide mouse coordinates for security reasons. Mouse coordinates are important for auto-focus animations. So I trained a YOLOv11 model to detect mouse cursors and I run inference in real time while you record. Also, I created my own Remotion-style renderer because I started with…

Talanoa▲346Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them. I will review and approve it.
