Keep Every Video in One Searchable Library
Upload a video or record one in the browser and it goes into your account, not a folder on one device. From there you can search it, share it, and ask an AI chat questions about what is in it, the same as any other recording in your library.
Recordings are encrypted with AES-256, and ScreenApp’s security controls are published on its trust center, which lists SOC 2 Type 2 compliance. Instead of downloading a file to check it, you open it in the browser on whatever device you are on.
What you get with every video:
- search across recordings by name or transcript
- one AI chat that searches and answers from every recording in your library, or a single folder
- team workspaces and share links
- A transcript in 99 languages
- Export as PDF, DOCX, TXT, SRT and VTT
- no watermark on any recording or export
- Free plan: one recording of up to 45 minutes, with AI chat on it
How to Store and Organize Your Videos
- Add the video: Record in the browser or on your phone, upload a file you already have, or paste a YouTube, Vimeo, or media link (YouTube, Vimeo and direct media links).
- Let it process: The video is transcribed and added to your library. Long uploads and multiple files at once are supported (bulk upload of multiple files).
- Find it later: Search by title or by a word from the transcript instead of scrolling through folders. Ask the AI chat a question about the recording and get an answer that points to the moment it happened.
Search quality depends on how clearly the audio comes through, the same as transcription accuracy. See how we measure accuracy.
Teams that need one shared place for recordings, not just personal storage, can read about team workspaces on the sharing page.

- vs Google Drive: Google’s own plans page describes general file storage and Gemini features like drafting and image generation, but does not mention searching a video by what was said in it or chatting with an AI about a recording. ScreenApp’s library search and AI chat work on every video by default.
- vs Dropbox: Dropbox’s paid plans add password-protected links, custom expiration dates, and disabled downloads on shared links. ScreenApp’s team workspaces and share links do not include password protection, but every recording is searchable and has an AI chat attached, which Dropbox’s plans page does not offer.
Who Uses ScreenApp as a Video Library
Content creators keep raw footage and edited cuts in one place instead of across a laptop, an external drive, and a folder shared with an editor. A share link replaces sending a large file.
Business teams put training videos, meeting recordings, and product demos in one library so anyone on the team can search for a topic instead of asking who has the file.
Educators archive recorded lectures and let students search the transcript for a term instead of re-watching the whole session. See the lecture recorder for the recording side of this.
Remote workers keep screen recordings and calls backed up to their account instead of a local drive, so a new laptop or a wiped machine does not mean lost recordings.
Support and sales teams search past call recordings for what a customer actually said, instead of relying on whoever remembers the call.
FAQ
How do I store videos online for free?
ScreenApp’s free plan includes one recording of up to 45 minutes, with the transcript and AI chat included. Upload a file you already have, record in the browser, or paste a link. Paid plans start at $19 a month billed annually and remove the per-recording limit.
Is my video storage secure?
Videos are encrypted with AES-256. ScreenApp’s security program is SOC 2 Type 2 certified; the controls and policies are published on its trust center.
How does search work across my videos?
search across recordings by name or transcript. You can also open the AI chat and ask a question about one recording or across your whole library, and it answers from the transcript rather than making you scroll through the video.
Can I share a stored video with someone else?
Yes. team workspaces and share links. Anyone with the link can open the video in the browser without downloading it first.
Does ScreenApp add a watermark to my videos?
No. no watermark on any recording or export.
Can I upload videos I recorded somewhere else?
Yes. Upload the file directly, or paste a link and ScreenApp will pull in the video (YouTube, Vimeo and direct media links). Multiple files can be uploaded at once (bulk upload of multiple files).
What happens to my videos if I stop paying?
This depends on your plan and is best checked on the pricing page before you decide, since ScreenApp does not publish a general data-retention figure here.
Does ScreenApp offer single sign-on for teams?
Not yet. Team accounts use team workspaces and share links, but SSO and SAML are not available on any plan today.
