DevRecorder

DevRecorder is a screen recorder for developers that captures console logs, network requests, errors, and navigation events with video for faster debugging and bug reports.

DevRecorder

Overview

DevRecorder is a screen recorder for developers that pairs video capture with synchronized debugging data. It records browser activity together with console logs, network requests, errors, and navigation events so teams can review what happened in context.

The product is designed for debugging, bug reports, and handoff workflows. Users can start with the Chrome extension, share recordings through public links, add comments, and push recordings into issue trackers or AI coding tools through integrations and MCP support.

Core features

Screen recording with synced debug context

Record the browser window or a selected region, then capture console logs, network requests, and navigation events alongside the video.

Timeline-based playback

Review recordings with a timeline panel that lets you jump to events and inspect console errors, network requests, and response details.

Public sharing

Share recordings through a public link so viewers can watch the video with synchronized debug data without logging in.

Comments and reactions

Add time-stamped comments and threaded replies, with emoji reactions for team review on recordings.

Project-management integrations

Create linked issues or tasks from a recording in Linear, Jira, ClickUp, or Trello, with context prefilled from the recording.

MCP access for AI tools

Connect an MCP endpoint so supported AI coding tools can query recorded errors, console logs, and network requests directly from your account.

Common use cases

  • Debugging browser issues

    Capture a bug while keeping the relevant console errors and network activity attached to the recording, so a teammate can review the issue without recreating the same environment.

  • Bug report handoff

    Share a public recording with synchronized debug data when handing off work to another engineer or a support teammate, reducing back-and-forth over missing context.

  • Collaborative review

    Use time-stamped comments and threaded replies to review a recording as a team, especially when a fix needs quick discussion around a specific moment in the playback.

  • Issue creation from recordings

    Turn a recording into a linked issue or task in Linear, Jira, ClickUp, or Trello when a bug needs to move from investigation into the team’s workflow.

  • AI-assisted debugging

    Ask an AI coding tool for details from recent recordings through the MCP server when you want logs, errors, or request data surfaced in your development workflow.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Captures video together with console logs, network requests, and navigation events in one recording.
  • Provides a quick setup flow that the docs describe as taking under 5 minutes.
  • Supports sharing via public links so recipients can review the recording without logging in.
  • Includes collaboration tools such as time-stamped comments, threaded replies, and reactions.
  • Connects to issue trackers and AI coding tools, reducing manual copying of logs and reproduction details.

Cons

  • The browser extension workflow is centered on Chrome, so the documentation does not present native desktop or mobile apps.
  • Paid plan details are documented for response body capture, higher storage, longer duration, and more team members, which suggests the Free plan is more limited in scope.

FAQ

Is there a free plan or trial?

Yes. The Free plan includes 5 recordings, 500 MB of storage, and no credit card is required to get started. The documentation says your first recording is free.

The docs say setup takes under 5 minutes: create an account with Google, install the Chrome extension, and start a recording from the extension menu.

What data is captured with a recording?

DevRecorder captures console logs, network requests, and navigation events with the recording. The docs also say it can capture response bodies on paid plans and redacts sensitive headers such as Authorization and cookies.

Can I share recordings with other people?

Yes. The documentation says recordings can be shared with a public link so viewers can see the video with synchronized debug data without logging in.

Does it integrate with issue trackers or AI tools?

DevRecorder supports Linear, Jira, ClickUp, and Trello integrations, and it also offers an MCP server for AI coding tools such as Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, and VS Code (Copilot).
