Rescreen / Free tools
Free tools for planning a recording
Small, single-purpose tools for the work around a screen recording. They run in your browser, need no account and do not upload what you put in them.
- Free screen recorderThe recorder itself: record your screen, camera and microphone in your browser, get an automatic edit when you stop, and share it by link. Free with an account, and no watermark.
- Script timerPaste a script and see how long it takes to say, with pauses and on-screen actions counted separately. Section timings, a word budget for a target length and a rehearsal stopwatch.
- Microphone testCheck your mic before you record: pick the device, watch a live level meter, and record a five-second sample to play back. Plain fixes for blocked, silent, quiet or distorting microphones. Nothing is uploaded.
- Webcam testCheck your camera before a call or a recording: pick the camera, see a live preview, and read the resolution and frame rate it really delivers. Mirrored or as viewers see you, plain fixes for black, dark or blocked cameras. Nothing is uploaded.
- WebM to MP4 converterTurn a WebM recording into an H.264 and AAC MP4 that plays on iPhone, Mac, Windows and social sites. Converted in your browser, checked before you download, never uploaded.
- Loom video downloaderPaste a public Loom share link and download the video as an MP4 that plays anywhere, at the best quality Loom has. Straight from Loom to your browser: no account, no extension, no watermark.
- Video trimmerCut the start and end off a video: set them on a preview or type exact times, then make a fast cut with no re-encoding or an exact one to the frame. MP4, MOV, WebM and MKV, trimmed in your browser, never uploaded.
- Video compressorMake a video or screen recording smaller, by quality or to fit a size like 10 MB or 25 MB. Lower the resolution, frame rate or sound, compare with the original and download an MP4. Compressed in your browser, never uploaded.
- Video silence removerCut the pauses out of a recording. See every silence on a timeline, set the threshold and padding, keep the pauses that matter, and download an MP4. Done in your browser, never uploaded.
- Video to text converterTranscribe a video or audio file on your own device: a speech model runs in your browser, so nothing is uploaded. Edit the transcript, play from any line, and download a TXT file or SRT subtitles.
- Video to GIF converterTurn a few seconds of a video or screen recording into a GIF: crop it, pick the width, frame rate and looping, preview and download. Made in your browser, never uploaded.
- Video file size and bitrate calculatorWork out how big a video will be, the bitrate that fits a size limit, or how long a video fits. Audio, MB versus MiB and container overhead included.
- Aspect ratio calculatorFind the aspect ratio of any size, work out the missing width or height, and preview cropping versus letterboxing to 16:9, 9:16, 1:1 or 4:5 — with what a crop cuts from a screen recording.
- SRT to VTT subtitle converterConvert SRT subtitles to WebVTT for a web video player, or VTT back to SRT. Every timestamp checked, lost styling listed, UTF-8 download. Converted in your browser, never uploaded.
Looking for method rather than a calculator? The guides cover scripting, recording and editing a tutorial end to end.
