🚀 Why Gravity? (The Tella Alternative)

Most screen recorders require logins, upload your data to their servers, and hit you with subscription walls. Gravity is built differently.

🛡️ Technical FAQ

1. How is it private if it's a web app?

Gravity uses the Browser File System Access API. We don't have a backend to store your videos. When you hit save, the browser writes the stream directly to a folder you select on your computer. Your data never touches our servers.

2. Does it work on all browsers?

Gravity is optimized for Chromium-based browsers (Chrome, Edge, Brave) which support the advanced File System and Media Capture APIs.

3. How do I get a "Prebuilt" release?

Gravity is a high-performance Web Studio accessible directly via the web. Standalone Electron builds (.exe/.dmg) are currently in development.
