Every screen recorder claims a fast export. None of them says fast compared to what.

So the comparison is public now: screen-recorder-benchmark. Same clip, same edit, same machine, across the desktop apps built to turn a recording into a finished demo. OpenScreen is one of the tools in it, alongside Cap, FocuSee, Recordly and Screen Studio, and the standings are whatever the submissions say.

Exporting a 1080p60 project with full effects used to run at about 8 fps. The same project now exports at about 126 fps on the same laptop. The bottleneck was never the encoder, which is the part of this worth writing down.

v1.8.0 shipped that on August 4, alongside an optional AI editing layer. It transcribes on your own machine, and chat edits go to the LLM provider you connect.
