For quick dev demos, bug reports, or client walkthroughs, I just wanted a recording that stays on my machine. No accounts, no uploads, no wondering who else can see my screen.</p> <p>So I built <a href="https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/jot-%E2%80%94-screen-recorder/mjlienibahpgoliehkbdeajdedebiedh">Jot</a> — a Chrome extension that records your browser tab and processes everything locally. Your video never leaves your device.</p>
