An easy-to-use screen recorder for Chrome with all your needs met. Frameforge is a free to use, privacy-first screen recorder built for Chrome. Capture a browser tab, application window, or entire screen with a clean workflow that keeps the important controls close at hand. Record locally. Share intentionally. Keep control of your screen and audio with Frameforge. Whether you are creating a product walkthrough, recording a support answer, saving a live lesson, sharing a design review, or capturing a technical demonstration, Frameforge helps you get from setup to recording quickly. Record what matters your way. Choose the capture surface that fits your task: - Browser tab for web demos, presentations, dashboards, and online tools - Application window for focused app tutorials and workflow recordings - Entire screen for multi-window demonstrations, classes, and full desktop walkthroughs Chrome's native screen-sharing picker gives you the final control over which surface is shared. Frameforge never silently captures a tab, window, or screen. Flexible audio capture Build the audio mix you need before recording: - System audio captures sound from the selected surface when Chrome makes it available - Microphone audio captures your voice from the default microphone - System audio and microphone together lets you narrate a demo while preserving the source audio - Video-only recording is available when you disable both audio sources Audio capture begins only after you approve it through Chrome's permission and sharing controls. You can cancel the native picker without starting a recording. A clear recording workspace Frameforge keeps the recording experience compact and easy-to-use: - Live preview of the selected capture stream - Recording status indicator and elapsed timer - One-click start and stop controls - Dedicated controls for source, audio, and output format - Preview-first or controls-first layout modes - Layout preference remembered between sessions - Automatic cleanup of display, microphone, and audio resources after recording to keep your system optimized The recorder opens in its own tab so the popup can close without interrupting the workspace. Unlike other screen recorder software we support more than 1 output format. Frameforge checks the capabilities of the installed browser before enabling format choices: - WEBM is the most broadly compatible option and is the default - MP4 is available when the browser exposes a compatible MP4 MediaRecorder encoder - AV1 is available when the browser exposes AV1 recording support - MKV is shown only when the browser exposes a compatible Matroska encoder Browser encoding support varies by Chrome version, operating system, and available codecs. Unsupported formats are visibly disabled instead of being mislabeled or silently renamed. When available, recordings are downloaded locally with a timestamped filename. Privacy-first by design Your recordings stay on your device. - No recording uploads - No external analytics or media processing service - No website content access - No account required - Screen and audio capture begin only after your explicit action - Active media streams are stopped when recording ends or the recorder closes Frameforge is designed to be useful without collecting your recordings or browsing activity. Here's a basic rundown on how to use it: 1. Open Frameforge from the Chrome toolbar. 2. Select Open recorder. 3. Choose Browser tab, Window, or Entire screen. 4. Enable system audio and/or microphone audio as needed. 5. Select an available output format. 6. Choose the surface in Chrome's native sharing dialog. 7. Click Start recording. 8. Click Stop recording when finished. 9. Your recording downloads locally to your device. Built for practical workflows Frameforge is useful for: - Product demos and feature walkthroughs - Customer support recordings - Bug reproduction videos - Online lessons and training - Presentations and narrated slides - Design critiques and review sessions - Software tutorials - Quick visual notes and team updates Browser compatibility notice: Frameforge uses Chrome's native screen capture and MediaRecorder APIs. The exact audio and output-format options available to you depend on Chrome and your operating system. WebM provides the best compatibility across supported environments. Frameforge does not claim to override Chrome's security model. Chrome always controls the final screen-sharing choice and permission prompts. A focused alternative to complicated recording tools Frameforge keeps the workflow deliberately direct: choose a surface, choose your audio, choose a supported format, and record. There are no accounts, upload queues, editing timelines, or distracting dashboards between you and the capture you need.
