Screen Studio helps you polish a recording. Reely makes the recording, directs the native flow, and finishes the reel inside your agent workflow.
Mac app · Agent skill · No recording session
Screen Studio is a general-purpose recorder for Mac screens and connected iPhones or iPads. You perform the flow, then it smooths the cursor, adds zooms, and can generate editable captions from recorded speech. Reely is purpose-built for repeatable SwiftUI reels: your agent drives the Simulator from a Flow Spec and turns those semantic steps into cuts, camera moves, and timed callouts. Choose Screen Studio for broad capture and hands-on editing; choose Reely when you want the native-iOS reel generated without a recording session or a required timeline pass.
What each workflow asks from you — and what comes out the other side.
| Capability | Reely | Screen Studio |
|---|---|---|
| What you get | Finished, publishable iOS marketing reel | Polished recording you perform and edit |
| How it’s made | Your agent drives the Simulator; generated from a prompt | You record your screen manually, then edit |
| Platform / scope | Native iOS / SwiftUI in the Simulator | Mac screens and windows; iPhone/iPad over USB |
| Auto-zoom | Automatic, toward each interaction | Automatic, with manual control |
| Captions | Authored step copy, automatically timed | Local voice transcription with editable captions |
| Brand theming | Theme-from-app (pulls colors + font from your build) | Manual styling |
| Agent / CLI | MCP tool + CLI — runs inside your agent | GUI workflow; no documented MCP or full CLI |
| Pricing | Free to create; $9.99/mo or $89.99/yr to export | Subscription (~$29/mo) |
The practical differences you will feel every time you need a new demo.
Screen Studio starts with a take: you press record, perform the flow, then trim and arrange the result. Reely starts with a Flow Spec. Your agent drives registered SwiftUI actions in the Simulator, records the native transitions, and uses the same semantic steps to author the camera, cuts, and callout timing. You can refine the result in Reely’s Mac editor, but a timeline pass is not required.
Screen Studio can capture Mac apps, browser demos, the Simulator, or an iPhone or iPad over USB. That breadth is a real advantage, especially for physical-device footage. Reely stays focused on native iOS in the Simulator: it owns the driven flow, captures device-native source footage, and anchors the edit to pixel-detected sync frames for repeatable timing.
The look Screen Studio made popular — pushing in toward whatever you’re interacting with — is exactly what Reely does, except Reely picks the zoom targets automatically from your flow’s interaction rects. Same polished motion language, none of the manual keyframing.
Reely is free to create with and $9.99 monthly or $89.99 annually to export, with every feature included. Screen Studio is $29 monthly or $108 annually, so price alone will not decide this comparison—the real difference is whether you want to record manually or generate the iOS reel end to end.
$9.99/month or $89.99/year. One plan with every feature included.
$29/month, or $108/year ($9/month billed annually). The legacy one-time license is no longer offered to new buyers.
Yes — that’s its purpose. Reely is built specifically for native iOS/SwiftUI demos and generates the reel for you, where Screen Studio is a manual, general-purpose desktop recorder.
Yes. It can capture the Simulator or record a connected iPhone or iPad over USB. You perform and edit the take; Reely instead drives a registered Simulator flow and authors the reel from those semantic steps.
Yes. Reely zooms toward each interaction automatically, choosing targets from your flow’s interaction rects — the same polished motion, without manual keyframing.
Reely costs $9.99/month or $89.99/year. Screen Studio costs $29/month or $108/year, so Reely is less monthly but not less annually. Choose based on whether you need an iOS reel engine or a general-purpose recorder.
