Meet Limelight

Limelight helps Mac users make screen demonstrations easier to follow. Its recorder automatically zooms toward clicks and smooths cursor movement, while overlays can show keyboard shortcuts, highlight the pointer, and display annotations. These tools also work during live presentations or calls, where viewers need to see the action as it happens.

A built-in editor trims recordings, changes playback speed, and exports standard or vertical video. The application runs locally and supports both Apple silicon and Intel Macs. A free tier includes cursor highlighting, while paid options unlock recording and the broader presentation toolkit. It is aimed at tutorials, product walkthroughs, and short explanations.
