MotionShot

What Is MotionShot?

MotionShot creates step-by-step walkthrough guides for browser-based tasks. Its Chrome extension captures your screen and clicks automatically as you work, turning the process into a guide you can customize and export as MP4 video, GIF, or PDF, or embed directly on your website.

You can also build a “MotionShot Hub” — a public, searchable library for sharing collections of your guides. By providing visual answers to common questions, it can reduce customer service inquiries.

The tool was created by its founder and focuses on making screenshot-based walkthrough guides simple to produce, particularly for support teams and onboarding.
