Screen Studio quality. Free.

Now, on a Mac with Apple silicon. Windows follows.

Dolly isn't notarized by Apple yet, so macOS asks once. On macOS 15 or later, click Done, then go to System Settings → Privacy & Security, scroll down and click Open Anyway. On macOS 13 or 14, right-click Dolly in Applications and choose Open, then Open. You never do this again, not even after updates. Step-by-step install guide.

Dolly needs screen recording permission. Switch Dolly on in System Settings → Privacy & Security → Screen & System Audio Recording, then quit and reopen Dolly. How to.

Not yet. The Windows recorder is in the works; the editor is already cross-platform.

Only when you click Get link. Recording, editing and export happen on your own Mac. Get link uploads a web copy of that one video to make its link; nothing else leaves your Mac. How Dolly links work.

Yes. Get link puts a short link on your clipboard right away; it plays as soon as the video is ready, on a clean page with comments, reactions, a transcript and chapters. Free includes up to 10 active links; Pro makes them unlimited and adds insights, a password, an expiry date and a button of your own.

Yes. Set After recording to Get link (or choose Stop and Get Link in the recording pill). ⇧⌘2 stops, and the share link is on your clipboard in under a second while the video uploads behind it. From the editor, ⇧⌘L does the same.

Not yet: it's coming soon. Recording an iPhone or iPad over a cable, in a phone or tablet frame, comes once it has been tested on real devices. More.

Everything stays editable: zooms, cursor, background, cuts and speed. Your raw recording is never changed.

No. Free records as long as you like, as often as you like, and exports up to 1080p with a small Made with Dolly logo in the corner. Coming from Loom's 5-minute limit? See Dolly as a free Loom alternative.

Free costs nothing: no time limit, the full editor, export up to 1080p with a small Made with Dolly logo in the corner, Quick Share and up to 10 active Dolly links. Pro is €9.99 a month or €59 a year: no logo, 4K at 60 fps, GIF, unlimited links with stats, password and expiry, your own branding and Connect your AI. Lifetime is €99 once (€49 for the first 500 founders) and keeps everything on your Mac forever. Team is €11.99 per user a month, from 3 users. Our launch gift: every account gets Pro free until 30 November. From 1 December, new accounts get 14 days of Pro, then Free. Pricing.

Connect your AI: Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor can drive Dolly through MCP. Ask for explainer videos and your AI writes the plan while Dolly records a narrated, captioned series of your app; or ask for a demo and it records, cuts, zooms and exports. All on your Mac, with no extra AI or voice costs.

Yes. If you bought Dolly for €5 or €19, you keep everything you paid for, forever. Your license key keeps working under Dolly → Settings → License. Your license.

Recording, editing and export happen on your own computer, so there are no render servers to pay for. The only thing that costs us money is hosting the videos you share as Dolly links, which is why Free has 10 active links and Pro has as many as you like.
