What MergeCam is

MergeCam is a free web recorder that combines screen video, microphone audio, webcam footage, and system audio into one .webm file saved directly to your disk. You can capture a browser tab, a window, or the entire display, and switch microphone or webcam capture on or off. Recording is assembled locally in the browser, without a recording server. The tool requires no account, email address, or password. It requests microphone or webcam permission only when those options are enabled, and you can deny either permission while continuing to record the screen. MergeCam writes the recording in one-second chunks and states that there is no hard recording-time limit. The site says it collects nothing and uses no tracking cookies, analytics, advertising scripts, backend server, or database. Use requires a recent desktop Chrome or Edge browser; Firefox and Safari are unsupported.
