Whiteboard recording tool: record and export whiteboard videos online
A whiteboard recording tool lets you draw on a digital canvas while speaking, then turn the session into a video. Excalicast captures the whiteboard operation stream plus your microphone (not screen pixels) and exports a clean MP4 in multiple aspect ratios from a single recording.
Short answer
Excalicast is a browser-based whiteboard recording tool. Open the app, pick an aspect ratio, draw and narrate, then export an MP4 in 16:9, 9:16, 1:1 or 4:5 — free watermarked export, no sign-up.
Workflow
- 1
Open the recorder
Open Excalicast in Chrome or Edge. No download or account is needed to start.
- 2
Pick an aspect ratio
Choose 16:9 for YouTube, 9:16 for Shorts/TikTok, or 1:1 — a crop frame shows exactly what will be in the video.
- 3
Draw and narrate
Press record and explain on the whiteboard. The operation stream keeps strokes crisp; your voice is captured on a synced audio track.
- 4
Export the MP4
Stop and export. The video renders locally in your browser via ffmpeg.wasm; the watermarked export is free.
FAQ
Do I need to install software to record a whiteboard?
No. Excalicast runs in the browser (Chrome/Edge). Recording and watermarked MP4 export work without installing anything or signing up.
Can one recording become both landscape and vertical?
Yes. A single recording re-renders to 16:9, 9:16, 1:1, and 4:5 without re-recording, so you can publish to YouTube and TikTok from one take.
