Hey Product Hunt 👋
I’m Emory, the maker of ooml.io.
I built ooml.io because I wanted a faster, more private way to record video messages using my screen and face — without accounts, uploads, or cloud platforms.
Most video tools today feel like full platforms: dashboards, links, processing time, and workflows you didn’t really ask for. I wanted something that felt more like a native Mac utility — open it from the menu bar, hit record, explain what you need to explain, and you’re done. Your file is saved locally on your Mac, ready immediately.
ooml.io is lightweight, runs quietly in the background, and is designed to stay out of your way while you work.
I’d love to hear your thoughts — especially from people who use video for walkthroughs, feedback, teaching, or quick updates.
Thanks so much for checking it out 🙌
