ScreenCI

ScreenCI is a video generation tool that creates narrated app walkthroughs from coding agent prompts.

ScreenCI generates tutorial videos, help-center walkthroughs, onboarding tours, and documentation screenshots from a single coding agent prompt. Users describe a feature and paste a prompt into a coding agent like Claude Code, Codex, or Cursor, which records a narrated walkthrough of the real app on a local machine. The finished video opens in a browser editor where teams can edit narration, switch between 79 supported languages, adjust voices, and manage assets. Engineers can store the scripts as Playwright tests in the repository, allowing CI pipelines to automatically re-record videos on every release. The platform also includes features like auto-zoom, secret redaction, custom branding, and timed image or video overlays.
