Dashcam - Capture the steps to reproduce ever bug, every time.

Why double-back when you can capture it the first time? Playback and share exactly what happened with Dashcam's desktop replay buffer.

The fastest way to add context

Don't stop to record a screencast or schedule a meeting. Dashcam creates a library of desktop highlights you can share instantly.

Adding a replay takes 30 seconds. Recording a screencast takes 15 minutes, and meetings can be over an hour! Avoid the hassle by attaching a replay instead!

Squash the bugs - Don't reproduce bugs, capture them first time and resolve them faster.
Ship features quicker - Demonstrating how things work is a quick and way to help teammates review changes.
Collaborate remotely - No more saying “it works on my machine”—share videos directly from the source.
Centralize team knowledge - Quickly share the steps a user, support agent, or teammate can take to resolve an issue.
Partner with product owners - Demo products in development with product owners to clarify requirements and discuss trade-offs.
Pair development and design - Keep everyone on the same page with async video handoffs and updates.
Everyone can understand a replay.

Works everywhere you do
It doesn't get faster than this. Instantly embed replays within the development tools you already use.

Capture footage of everything that happens on your desktop.
Rest easy knowing that you've got a visual backup of everything that happens on your computer. Create instant-replays or find specific events in the 3-day long buffer.

Edit, publish, and share in seconds.
Isolate the relevant parts of your clip and keep private stuff a secret. All footage is stored locally and must be manually reviewed before uploading.

Enhance your contributions with video replays.
Say goodbye to demo days. Fix bugs and ship features faster by providing collaborators with the context they need.

Won't impact your system performance.
Dashcam won't fill up your disk and is performant enough to run in the background.
