Stop paying to record your screen. Onyx is a privacy-first, studio-quality recorder that runs entirely in your browser. No servers, no uploads, and no "5-minute limits." Why I built it: Most tools force cloud subscriptions or downgrade quality. Onyx respects your privacy, giving you raw, high-bitrate 4K video instantly. Free forever. Built for creators to share work without friction.
Hey Product Hunt! 👋
I’m Suleyman, the maker of Onyx.
I needed to show my editor how to edit a specific video, which meant recording a 30-minute+ walkthrough with my face, audio, and screen. When I searched Google, everything required a new account, monthly subscriptions, and annoying time limits.
I realized I only really need a screen recorder a few times a month, and I didn't want to be locked into a subscription just for that.
So I spent November 19-20th making Onyx, a forever-free screen recorder.
Onyx is my answer to subscription fatigue:
- No Account: Record right away.
- Privacy: It uses your computer's storage, not a cloud server's.
- No Limits: Record for 5 minutes or 5 hours.
- No Watermarks: Just clean 4K video.
- Quick Edits: Trim the video to cut out the "millennial pause" at the start.
I’d love to hear what you think! If you find any bugs or have a feature request, let me know in the comments. I'm shipping updates all day. 🚀
Happy recording! Suleyman
