I dont quite get the upgrade from the build in Mac OS functionality to take screenshots, record video. not trolling can you give me 2 sentences of what this enables me to do ? I see editing but thats bout it, no? downloading a copy know but wish the value was more clear. thank you
Most of my screen recordings end up on a landing page, where file size decides if the page still loads fast. What does Studio Mode export at?
Can it do these kinds of 3d pano animations of screen recordings. The ones that look really interesting for Hero sections on websites etc?
Finally!!!!! Long-time user of Cleanshot, hands-down my favourite screenshot product. I'd purchased Screen Studio a while back cos this didn't exist. Can't wait to try it now
fred's point abt screenshots giving agents context is exactly what i'd use it for. does studio mode keep the raw cursor path so zooms can be redone after?
Looks like Cleanshot is slowly pivoting towards screen recording to compete with Screenstudio and others
I love this app. It's essential on a Mac. Looking forward to giving 5.0 a shot.
Cleanshot has been one of my favourite mac apps for a while, I've evangelised numerous colleagues to get it and use it dozens of times a day to bring context to agents and humans. The new release looks like a huge addition that I'm sure I'll use for the more polished screen recordings I need to do!

Hey Product Hunt! 🚀
I'm the co-founder of CleanShot, and I'm super excited to finally launch CleanShot 5.0 with Studio Mode and the new Video Editor!
Our mission with this was very simple: make the editor as powerful as possible while keeping it minimalistic and beautifully designed.
And the best part? It's still a fully native Mac app with great UX and performance.
The Studio Mode is available on all CleanShot plans. No subscription required.
We're just getting started, and we have a lot of new stuff planned for the Video Editor, but I'm excited to hear your feedback! 🙌
