The recorder already on your computer for a quick clip, Loom to share by link, and OBS Studio, free, for anything longer.

On a Mac press Shift, Command and 5; on Windows 11 the Snipping Tool records a chosen area and opens the clip in Clipchamp. Loom's free Starter plan gives 25 videos of up to 5 minutes each. For polished product demos on a Mac, Screen Studio adds zooms at $9 a month billed yearly, and Descript edits a recording by editing its transcript.
