Two tools with different centres

Zight, formerly CloudApp, grew out of quick screenshots and GIFs, and added screen recording, AI summaries and video requests on top. It suits teams that capture a lot of stills alongside video, often for support and documentation.

Opivv is built for the video itself: an update, a walkthrough, a bug report or a review that someone needs to watch today. It records in your browser, copies the link when you stop, and turns the video page into a conversation. If that is most of what you capture, start with the free screen recorder, or see how it stacks up in the best Loom alternatives.

Frequently asked

Yes. CloudApp renamed itself Zight, so the screen recorder, screenshot and GIF tool you may know as CloudApp is now sold as Zight plans.
