For Windows 10 and 11 · Invite-only
Save the moment after it happens.
Shard keeps the last moments of your game in memory. Press one key and they become a clip. No recording to remember to start, nothing slowing your game down.

Built to stay out of the way.
It starts with your game, runs quietly in the tray and turns the last moments into an ordinary MP4 the instant you ask.
One key, the last 30 seconds
Pick 15 s, 30 s, 1 or 2 minutes. Your key works in fullscreen games and while the app sits in the tray.
Light on your PC
Its own video and audio encoders, written for Shard. Your game's frame rate doesn't move, and idle it uses next to nothing.
Your keys and mouse, in the clip
An overlay shows what you pressed and clicked. Restyle it in the app, then keep it in the video so it plays the same anywhere.
Clips stay on your PC
Ordinary MP4 files in your Videos folder that play and upload anywhere. Nothing is uploaded for you.
A library, not a folder
Every clip with its game, length and size. Search, sort, star your favourites and trim without re-encoding.
Private by invite
Accounts need an invite. Each PC signs in with its own key, and you can see and end every session from your account page.
Numbers, not promises.
Every figure here was measured on a real machine with the release build.

Not just games.
