Works with any screen recorder

Stop drawing with your mouse.

Most annotation tools force you to draw shaky circles with a mouse. TanDraw lets you draw with your iPad and Apple Pencil while recording your screen, so your annotations actually look professional.

The Old Way
Shaky mouse drawings

You're recording a tutorial. You want to circle a button or draw an arrow. Drawing with a mouse looks terrible, post-production takes forever, and the OBS green-screen workaround requires 15 steps to set up.

The TanDraw Way
Perfect iPad strokes

TanDraw syncs drawing from your tablet to your desktop in real-time over WebSockets. You draw naturally on your iPad. The strokes appear instantly on a transparent canvas on your desktop. Your screen recorder captures everything.
