Make my startup a legend
  1. 1 A quick demo to record. Loom's free plan stops at five minutes.
  2. 2 Screen Studio looks great. The link only comes after export.
  3. 3 So: let's build a screen recorder.
  4. 4 Reelbird: press record on your Mac.
  5. 5 Press stop. The link is already copied.
  6. 6 Paste it anywhere. They're watching.
  7. 7 Then polish it: auto-zoom, smooth cursor, captions.
  8. 8 Same link, better video. Free and open source.

What they do
Reelbird is a free, open-source screen recorder for Mac with instant sharing and video polishing tools.

The story

Bilal Tahir started Reelbird to bridge the gap between quick sharing and polished screen recordings. The first commit was on October 12, 2026. Three weeks later, Reelbird was at version 0.4.1 and signed and notarized for download.
