Turn screen recordings into something worth watching.
Retina started as a screen recorder. 83 days and 270 commits later, it's a GPU-accelerated editor with physics-based cursors, AI graphics, and 10-bit HEVC export.
Features in Action
What it does
Native screen capture with custom region selection, cursor-less mode with overlay cursor, and constant 60fps recording.
PixiJS-based timeline with clip splitting, trim handles, drag-to-reorder, and frame-accurate undo/redo.
Smart Zooms with spring physics, cinematic camera with jitter filtering, 6-layer shadows, motion blur trails.
Physics-based cursor with anchor awareness, glassmorphism style, cinematic click effects with shockwave animation.
GPU pipeline via WebCodecs and FFmpeg. H.264/HEVC with 10-bit color, debanding noise filter, batch export.
Overlay graphics generated via Claude Haiku 4.5. Firebase backend, duration extraction, content type switching.
