Never forget to record again.
PixelRec records your Photoshop work on its own. You just paint. No extra software, no editing.

You forget to press record, and the process behind your painting is gone.

It records.
You paint.
PixelRec saves a picture of your canvas each time you rest your pen. Only the canvas: never your menus, your desktop or your messages.
- Starts by itself. Every file you paint in is recorded. Pause any time.
- You choose when a frame is saved. Every stroke, every 5, 10 or 30 seconds, or when you rest.
- Mini bar. A small bar with your time, frames and Pause. Keep it open while the big panel stays closed.
- Real painting time. The timer pauses about one minute after you stop painting. Breaks do not count.
- Break messages. When you rest, a short line keeps you going. Hype, Calm, or Off.
Try Ultra right here.
This is how PixelRec Ultra looks inside Photoshop. Draw on the canvas: the real Ultra panel and Mini bar save a frame each time your pen stops. Then press Export video and watch your own timelapse.
The real PixelRec Ultra panel and Mini bar, running in your browser. Library and Stats show sample recordings.
Watch your painting
come back to life.
The Replay window plays your whole process, from the first sketch to the final picture. Find the moment you like, then make a video of just that part.
Day chapters
A painting made over many days? Jump straight to Day 1, Day 2, Day 3.
See the busy parts
The bar shows where you painted the most, so the good moments are easy to find.
Save a part
Mark where the part begins and where it ends. Export only that part of the painting.
Suggest 15 s
One click suggests 15 seconds where you painted the most. Change it if you want.
Edit your timelapse
like a video.
Before you export, the Export window shows your whole video on a timeline. Cut it into parts, remove the slow parts, and change the speed. You can undo your recent edits.
Split
Move the playhead and click Split. Your video is now two parts.
Delete the slow parts
Select a part and delete it. The video gets shorter at once.
Speed per part
Make one part faster or slower, from 0.25x to 8x. The rest stays the same.
Finished art at both ends
The video can start and end on your finished painting, so people see the result.
One painting.
Every size.
Pick Reels, Post, Square and YouTube together. Ultra makes all the videos in one export, into one folder.
Every size in one export
Each video is cropped and framed for its app.
Your video is ready.
So is your post.
Open the video, show it in the folder, or copy a caption with your painting time and hashtags.
Slow ending
The last strokes play slower, so people see the final picture.
15, 30 or 60 seconds
Or full length. MP4 up to 4K.
Ready to post
A caption to copy, and a progress collage with 6 stages of your painting.
Presets
Save your favorite settings and use them again.

4.7 out of 5 · 25 ratings of PixelRec Pro on Gumroad
“The quality of recording and the ease of use is top notch. I used to use OBS for recording and I usually forget to press the record button but with Pixelrec, I just need to start painting and it records even the stroke count! And also the time! Love it!”
“A big upgrade from the standard PixelRec. You don't have to worry about hitting the record button. It stays recording no matter what :D”
“Really great plugin! Exactly what I needed for a long time. I only wish I had it earlier.”
“This plugin is a total game changer! As an artist who has been using Photoshop for decades, I knew this was one of its biggest missing features. And the moment I saw this add-on, I was sure it would be super useful. It's the perfect tool both for someone like me who uses social media and for saving my work much faster! I would definitely love to see more plugins from this team!”
“best fking thing ever. EVERYONE WHO USES PHOTOSHOP has needed this at one point if u want to record your work. any other fix is annoying and doesnt do it right. this is exactly what you need if you want to record your process on photoshop. i've recommended this to all of my friends who use PS. WELL WORTH THE PRICE.”
“Amazing app which records perfectly, support was super helpful and responsive too!! thanks guys <3”
