Never miss
the setup again.
ClipCatch keeps the last sixty seconds of your chart always ready to save. You saw the tape rip — hit save and the move is on disk. One app, every platform you trade on.
I built this because I kept missing my own setups.
Six thousand hours on the tape. I'd watch a textbook failed breakdown, print the exact bar I'd been waiting for, and realize I didn't have the chart.
OBS eats my CPU. QuickTime fills my SSD with garbage clips. Screen-recording apps want my email, a subscription, and a tour of their AI. I wanted something that stays out of the way — and when I say "save the last minute," saves the last minute.
So I built it. For you, for me, for my funded friends who keep DMing me "bro did you catch that." Yeah. I caught it.
Three things. That's the whole app.
No tutorial. No onboarding. Open it, pick what to record, trade.
It's quietly recording your chart.
The last 60 seconds (or 3 min) live in RAM. Nothing on disk. Under 3% CPU on Apple Silicon. You forget it's there.
The move prints. You save.
Hit Save 60s — or let the Area Monitor auto-save when the newest candle moves hard. The clip is already rendered.
Clip is on disk. Review at the close.
MP4, H.264, named with the ticker and time. Open with anything. Drop in Notion, Discord, Journalytix — wherever your journal lives.
Your platform, your charts, your way.
ClipCatch records what's on screen — so it works with every trading platform, period. Here are the ones our beta testers use most.
Four workflows. One keyboard shortcut away.
Stop explaining trades in words.
A 45-second clip of the actual bar-by-bar print is worth ten paragraphs in your trade journal. Drop it in Notion or Edgewonk and move on.
Show your mentor exactly what you saw.
Trade review over Discord or Zoom. Paste a clip, get notes back. Better than chart screenshots — they can see the build-up.
Proof when the fill was wrong.
When your DOM shows one thing and your broker says another, a clip of the ladder at the exact millisecond is not a debate.
Always on.
Never on disk.
Until you say so.
ClipCatch keeps the last 60 seconds of your screen in memory — not files. Storage stays clean. CPU stays cool. And "wait, did anyone get that?" becomes: you did.
- In-memory ring buffer. No ghost files in your Movies folder.
- Save backwards — capture the move you already watched.
- Under 3% CPU at 4K · runs silent next to your chart software.
Quiet app. Loud endorsements.
"I've screenshotted ten thousand charts. Every single one was the wrong moment. This is the first tool that catches the actual print."
"Set the area over my P&L, let it auto-record. I have a library of every stop-out I ever took. Ugly, but it made me a better trader."
"Replaced OBS, Loom, and QuickTime on my rig. Laptop fan finally shuts up."
Simple pricing. Serious tool.

Answers.
How does the 3-day trial work?
Download, install, record. No card, no account, no friction. After 3 days the app asks for a licence key before it'll record again. Saved clips stay in your Movies folder regardless — they're just MP4s, they never needed the app.
Can I use one licence on multiple Macs?
Yes. Every licence covers 2 Macs — work desk + home setup is the typical split. You can free up a slot from Settings → License if you sell or replace a machine.
Monthly or lifetime — which should I pick?
Lifetime pays itself back in 10 months and never renews. Pick Monthly if you want to feel it out, Lifetime if you already know you're keeping it. You can upgrade from Monthly to Lifetime anytime and we'll credit you what you already paid.
Does it send data anywhere?
No telemetry. No analytics. No crash reporting. Licence checks go to Gumroad once a day, that's it. Your recordings never leave your machine unless you share them yourself.
Does it work with my prop firm's platform?
If the platform renders on your screen, ClipCatch records it. Every firm-specific build of NinjaTrader, Tradovate, Rithmic, ProjectX, TradingView, TWS — they all just render pixels, ClipCatch catches them.
Refund policy?
30-day no-questions refund on both plans. Email support@clipcatch.app, we process refunds within a business day.
What about audio — mentor calls, squawks?
Screen only for now. System audio and mic capture are on the roadmap — most traders using ClipCatch don't need them, but we hear you if you do.
Windows version?
Not yet. We prototyped one but the platform's capture APIs are messier than macOS — rather than ship something half-baked we're focusing Mac-only until the Mac build is exactly where we want it.
