Share Screen Companion

You want them paying attention to your presentation.

Most online presentations are managed by their tools. Until now.

Scroll
For anyone who presents online.
The solution

Focus on what matters.
Hide the rest from view.

Captascreen separates what you see from what they'll see. Behind the glass, you control navigation and narration while sharing a single, dedicated window — image only, no UI. Operate your full control surface privately. They see one thing.
You see everything.

Nothing leaves your machine. No account. No server. No dependency on anyone's infrastructure.

The system

One for them.
Two for you.

One window for your audience. Dedicated presentation and narration layers for you.

The method

Open. Control. Share.

01

Build locally

Your entire presentation — images, PDFs, video, slides, run order — all stored in your browser's own database. No account. No server. Chrome required.

02

Open your control surface

The Presenter Window is what they see — image only, zero UI. The Navigator is yours — full run order, every thumbnail, your notes. Jump to any slide. Click Arrange. Everything snaps into position.

03

Your screen. Your stage.

In Zoom, Teams, or Meet — share the Presenter Window. Your Navigator shows the full run order, every note, every thumbnail. Change direction mid-presentation. Your audience sees only what you show them.

Features

No concessions.
No compromises.

Platform agnostic

If it shares a named window, you own it. Zoom, Teams, Meet, Webex, Loom — the list is every platform that has shipped a screen-share feature.

Air-gapped by design

IndexedDB. Your browser's own storage. Nothing touches a network. No size limit. Full-resolution assets land exactly as created.

PDF page navigation

Drop any document. Every page becomes a navigable slide. No conversion, no upload, no third-party service. Client-side, instantaneous.

Pro

Video per project

Short-form video loops silently in the Presenter Window. Product demos, case studies, showreel segments — native playback, no encoding.

Pro

Audio with waveform

Full-resolution waveform in the Presenter Window. Transport controls in your surface. Music, voice, podcast — the audience sees the wave, you control playback.

Pro

Live URL — sandboxed

Present a live prototype, a data dashboard, a Figma file — without leaving the platform. Sandboxed iframe. No domain restrictions on your end.

Pro

Sequenced opens

Cover, mission, context — a full slide sequence before the grid. Any content type per slide. End title on demand. You control the pace of the entire room.

Full frame

F key. Both windows go edge to edge simultaneously. No crop, no padding, no browser chrome. The content fills everything they see.

Owned outright

Single file. No subscription, no seat count, no renewal date. It works as long as Chrome does.

FAQ

Answered.

Chrome. Captascreen's three-window architecture uses Blob URL popups and window positioning that only Chrome supports reliably. Firefox and Safari will not work.

If Chrome is not your default browser, download it here, then right-click the Captascreen file and choose Open With — Google Chrome.
Download the HTML file. Open it in Chrome — double-click, or right-click and choose Open With — Google Chrome. The app loads immediately. No install, no account, no setup. Your first visit creates a local database for your project data, stored only on your machine.
The HTML app file, sw.js (service worker for offline use), manifest.json (PWA configuration), and a full README guide covering every feature.

Download the ZIP if you want the complete offline-capable setup or plan to self-host. Download the HTML file if you just want to run it now.
From the hosted version at captascreen.com: open captascreen-lite.html or captascreen-pro.html in Chrome. Look for the install icon in the address bar — a small screen or download icon. Click it and confirm. Captascreen installs to your dock and runs in its own window with no browser chrome, no tabs, no distractions.

To self-host: place sw.js and manifest.json in the same folder as the HTML file, serve from any HTTP server, then install from Chrome.
No. Once downloaded, Captascreen runs entirely from your machine. No server, no cloud, no account required during a presentation.

Two exceptions: Google Fonts load on first open for correct typography (falls back to system sans if offline), and PDF imports use a CDN-hosted renderer on first use. After that, everything is local and offline.
Yes — and your data moves with you. In Lite, open the editor, go to Data and Backup, and click Export JSON. In Pro, open the editor, go to Data and Backup, and click Import JSON. All projects, images, and talk points transfer in one step.
If your presentation is image-based — portfolio work, photography, visual research — Lite is complete. If you present PDFs, run video in meetings, need to show a live URL, or work in a content-diverse environment, Pro is the right tool. Both are free. There's no reason not to try Pro.
A Progressive Web App installs from a URL and runs like a native application — its own window, its own dock icon, no browser chrome, works offline. Visit the hosted URL in Chrome, click Install, done. No App Store, no review, no distribution friction.

Share the URL with anyone. They install their own copy in two clicks. It never requires your involvement again.
Any platform that can share a named browser window. Zoom, Teams, Google Meet, Webex, Loom, and every other tool that has shipped window sharing. The Presenter Window appears in their share dialog by name. Select it.
Zoom: Share Screen → Window tab → Captascreen Presenter Window.

Google Meet: Present Now → A Window → Presenter Window.

Teams: Share → Window → Presenter Window.

Share the window. Not the screen.
IndexedDB — your browser's local storage. Nothing leaves your machine. No analytics, no telemetry. No size limit. Full-resolution assets stored without compression or downscaling.
Generate Hosted Version exports a single self-contained HTML file with all content baked in. Upload it, share the URL. They open a browser — no account, no software, no instructions required. The hosted version has no editor and no controls beyond presenting.
← → navigate between projects. ↑ ↓ step through images and PDF pages within the current project — including when the Presenter Window is open, letting you cue content without exposing your control surface.

Space advances. F full frame. P presentation mode. E end slide. Escape exits the current view.
Click Allow in the Chrome address bar when prompted. Permanently permitted after that. One-time friction, never again.
