Show HN: Tool for creating step-by-step tutorials from screen recordings. No AI

FramePin launches a tool that lets users create step-by-step tutorials from screen recordings by freezing key moments and adding annotations, then exporting as annotated video or PDF. The tool runs entirely in the browser with no uploads, targeting non-editors who need polished guides for documentation or support.

You already have the recording

Loom, ScreenStudio, OBS, QuickTime, Zoom — it doesn't matter. If you recorded your screen, you're ready. No special format required.

Freeze any moment and add context

Open your recording in FramePin. ** on any frame, draw a rectangle to highlight an area, drop a callout to explain what's happening.**

Move to the next moment and repeat. Takes seconds per frame.

Export as an annotated video

Export your recording as an MP4 with annotations burned in.

Download the file, attach it to a ticket, drop it in Slack. Done.

Or export as a PDF walkthrough

Export every annotated frame as a high-resolution PDF or image pack. Perfect for documentation, support tickets, or onboarding guides that live in Notion or Confluence.

Your video never leaves your computer

Everything runs locally in Chrome. Nothing is uploaded anywhere.

Built for non-editors

If you can click and draw a box, you can use FramePin. Annotations that look professional in one click

Arrows, labels, highlights — pre-styled and ready to drop.
