As Cubicast is getting out of beta, let us explain our pricing policy and the subscription plans in more detail. We tried to keep our pricing policy as clear as possible. All plans come with a set of available features plus a usage quota, in the form of maximum allowed API requests per billing period. First, all newly registered users are given a free 15 day trial period. During this period, you can try Cubicast to its full extent.

Having said this, the way to embed the Cubicast recorder in your web app or site remains the same, as described below.

We are excited to announce two new features: Whole page recording Recording canvas elements Whole Page Recording What lies below the fold of a webpage? One has to scroll down to find out. But what if you want to record before even scrolling? Get a quick snapshot of everything a user can see, not only what he actually sees? Enter the page recording option. You can now select between recording just the viewport or the whole page.

Ever felt frustrated at the speed things happen in a screen recording? We too. It’s natural. When a user is capturing his screen, he rarely does it on a timed scenario. There are gaps, pauses, inactivity and delays. That’s the way we all interact with our browsers. Despite this being the natural way, it doesn’t doesn’t prohibit viewers from being bored. So we have added some sugar to the player to speed this up:
