VisionPiper captures exactly what you need from your screen — no more, no less.
Draw a precise region on any display, then capture screenshots, record video, or stream live frames. Move the region while recording to use it like a steerable camera. Export as GIF, H.264, or HEVC with the built-in trim editor.
Built for professionals, MCP tools included, API and WS.

- Take instant screenshots with a click or keyboard shortcut
- Record the selected region as H.264 MP4 video
- Move or resize the region during recording — the capture follows in real-time

TRIM & EXPORT
- Trim recordings with a visual timeline scrubber
- Export as animated GIF with configurable fps and size
- Export as MP4 with H.264 or H.265/HEVC encoding
