About ReelCast

ReelCast is a innovative macOS application designed for content creators, educators, and indie hackers who need quick, high-quality video clips optimized for social media platforms like TikTok, Shorts, and Reels. The app simplifies the recording process by automatically capturing your screen in a vertical 9:16 aspect ratio while seamlessly tracking your cursor and focus window. This eliminates the tedious post-production cropping or zooming typically required to prepare videos for vertical formats. With ReelCast, users can simply hit record and work as usual, producing ready-to-share clips in seconds, making it an invaluable tool for fast-paced content workflows. Its automatic tracking feature ensures that the focus remains on the subject, providing a polished, professional look without extra editing.
