Desktop Recorder

Screen capture and process recording for desktop workflows

Overview

The Desktop Recorder is a lightweight companion app for Windows and macOS that captures screen-based processes at a system level. It records screenshots at every click and keystroke, timestamps each interaction, and tracks which applications are being used. Features include region-of-interest capture, idle/wait time auto-detection, multi-monitor support, recording templates, resource tracking, photo evidence attachment, and automatic updates. The resulting recording syncs to your ValueStream account and auto-generates a process map.

Why Desktop Recorder?

Three reasons teams choose this tool

Automatic Capture

Screenshots at every interaction, timestamps at every click. Zero manual effort during recording.

System-Level Precision

Idle detection, multi-monitor support, and app tracking give you data the browser cannot capture.

Cross-Application Flows
