Capture, Debug & Report Bugs 10x Faster
Report bugs via instant annotated screenshot or 60fps screen & voice recording. Format tickets with an in-app WYSIWYG editor, capture application storage & network telemetry, and sync directly to ClickUp, Jira, Trello, Linear, Slack, or MS Teams.
Everything You Need To Reproduce & Fix Bugs
Say goodbye to incomplete bug tickets, vague descriptions, and endless back-and-forth messages.
Dual Capture: Instant Screenshots & 60fps Video
File bugs the way that works best: capture instant full-viewport screenshots with immediate visual annotation, or record 60fps video with microphone narration. Both modes automatically gather complete network HAR, console logs, and storage state.
In-App WYSIWYG Editor & Syntax Compilers
Draft professional, structured bug descriptions with an in-app rich text editor supporting bold, italics, headings (H1-H6), bulleted/numbered lists, inline code, and links. Automatically compiles to Jira ADF, Slack mrkdwn, Teams HTML, and Markdown.
Hybrid Video Pipeline & Instant Preview
Trim recordings down to the exact second with zero-delay virtual preview playback. Server-side FFmpeg pipeline bakes visual annotations and encodes universally compatible MP4s in under 15 seconds, backed by an intelligent offline fallback.
Application Storage State Inspector
Automatically captures localStorage, sessionStorage, IndexedDB, and cookies. Export directly as Playwright-compatible storage_state.json with automatic Bearer and JWT token redaction for secure reproduction.
Annotation Studio with Freehand Pen
Highlight defects clearly using freehand pen scribbles, arrows, bounding boxes, text callouts, and crop tools with interactive resize handles. Complete with multi-level undo/redo history.
Deep Telemetry & Core Web Vitals
Silently captures console errors, stack traces, full HAR 1.2 network payloads, Interaction to Next Paint (INP), and JS heap memory spikes in the background while you reproduce bugs.
Adaptive Quality, Dark & Light Mode
Detects device CPU cores and memory to recommend optimal recording quality (480p, 720p, 1080p). Features seamless Dark & Light mode theme switching and scalable font sizing.
In-App CSAT & Diagnostic Feedback
Submit 5-star satisfaction ratings, categorized bug/feature feedback, and anonymous diagnostic telemetry directly inside the extension popup without leaving your workflow.
Multi-Destination 1-Click Sync
Push bug reports directly into ClickUp lists, Jira projects, Trello boards, Linear teams, Slack channels, or Microsoft Teams with rich formatted descriptions, attachments, and Playwright storage state.
Strict Bug Reporting Privacy & Ephemeral Transcoding
RecBug collects user-initiated recordings, console logs, and network telemetry strictly for bug reporting. Video transcoding files are ephemeral and deleted immediately upon delivery.

Key Capabilities
How RecBug Works
From discovering a bug to filing a verified, developer-ready ticket in less than 30 seconds.
Capture: Video or Screenshot
Capture bugs in whatever format fits best: take an instant annotated screenshot or record high-definition 60fps screen & voice sessions. RecBug passively collects application storage state, network HAR, and console logs in the background.
Markup & Format
Markup defects with freehand pen, arrows, shapes, and crop tools with full undo/redo. Write structured bug reports with an in-app WYSIWYG editor featuring bold, lists, headings, and code.
Pre-Flight Preview
Inspect the complete bug report before submitting. Watch the baked video, audit storage keys & masked cookies, verify HAR network traces, and review system metadata.
Sync & Replay
Select your target destination (Linear, ClickUp, Jira, Trello, Slack, Teams) or download an offline ZIP bundle with Playwright storage_state.json for 1-click automated replay.
