Changelog

New in Mazic. It updates itself, so you’re always on the latest.

Mazic 0.5.1

Changed

  • Mazic now runs on mazic.io. Shared links, review pages, media and AI all use Mazic's own domain. Links you've already shared keep working.

Mazic 0.5.0

New

  • Claude credit choice. Connect your own Claude account or API key, or choose to use Mazic credits before an action starts.
  • Remember your choice. Skip the prompt for future actions, with a separate preference for each account and workspace. Change it any time in Integrations.
  • Plan & Usage. See your AI credit balance and activity, compare plans, and manage your subscription.
  • Workspace API keys. Teams can manage shared provider connections from Integrations.

Improved

  • Claude connection. Sign in explicitly through your browser and see which account is connected. No installed Claude Code app or credential discovery is needed.
  • Credit transparency. If your own Claude connection fails, choose whether to continue with Mazic credits. One approval covers the action's requests and retries.
  • Integrations. Claude, ElevenLabs, Nano Banana, and OpenAI Images keep your own connections separate from Mazic AI.

Changed

  • Personal AI connections require Pro. Team projects use API keys rather than personal Claude subscriptions.
  • Free plan. Recordings are limited to five minutes, with one Launch Film and three motion-graphic attempts. Free exports include Mazic branding.

Fixed

  • Closing or cancelling the credit prompt never authorizes spending, and connecting your own Claude does not spend a free generation attempt.
  • Concurrent Claude requests share one prompt. Remembered choices do not carry over to another account or workspace.
  • Background suggestions do not interrupt you with a connection prompt or use Mazic AI without prior credit approval.

Mazic 0.4.0

New

  • Brands. Teach Mazic your brand once — paste your website and it learns your logo, colours, fonts and voice in about a minute. Every video, graphic and launch film follows it
  • Brand in the editor. A new Brand section in the sidebar shows the brand your video is in and switches it in one click
  • Eight starting looks. Midnight, Ink, Paper, Mono, Signal, Citrus, Ember and Aurora, set in real fonts, ready to make your own
  • Import your brand guide. Drop in a brand-guide PDF, or bring the colour and text styles from a Figma file
  • Your brand in motion. See your brand play as a title, chapter and end card the moment it's ready

Improved

  • Captions follow your brand. Its heading font, with its accent on the spoken word
  • A Brand background. Your brand's colour with its accent glowing from below
  • Light brands look right. Full-screen titles, chapters and end cards use dark type on light backgrounds
  • Never the same twice. Each graphic Director makes picks a fresh look within your brand's rules
  • Director's graphics stay on brand. Off-brand colours and fonts are caught and fixed before they're rendered
  • Launch films. The storyboard is reviewed against the studio's best films before anything is designed, and type moves on the beat
  • Setup now asks for your website, so your brand is ready when onboarding ends

Fixed

  • A dropped internet connection could leave a launch film waiting for hours; it now moves on within seconds

Mazic 0.3.1

Improved

  • iPhone, iPad and portrait recordings show whole everywhere: on project cards, in "Your recording is ready" and as a project opens. Ultra-wide and square recordings too
  • The recorder shows when an update is ready, with What's New and Later
  • Delete several projects at once. Select them and press ⌫, or use the trash button in the selection bar

Mazic 0.3.0

New

  • Start window. Your recent projects, search, and three ways to begin: record, make a launch film, or open the editor
  • New project. Start empty and build a video from clips, images, titles and slides
  • Batch export. Select several projects (⌘-click or ⇧-click) and export them in one go
  • Export, redesigned. A preview of your video, one-click presets (Social, Web, Studio, GIF), and the size and time before you start
  • Your exported file, right on the card. Play it, drag it into Slack, Mail or a browser, copy it or share it
  • Import from Screen Studio. Bring your projects across from File → Import from Screen Studio
  • Create with AI, rebuilt. Describe it, see it on your video, add it
  • A new welcome. Pick what you want to make first and try Mazic's best features before you start

Improved

  • Smaller exports. About half the file size at the same quality on Apple silicon
  • Long recordings. Record and export 90-minute videos reliably; a long export picks up where it stopped
  • Exports keep going after you close the editor, and Mazic asks before quitting during one
  • Launch Film. One form written live from your website, captures at real screen sizes, and music you can listen to first
  • Titles. Changes show as you type, with a cleaner title inspector
  • Teams. Uploads and downloads wait out flaky Wi-Fi and resume by themselves
  • Uses much less memory on 8 GB Macs
  • Opens faster, with a smooth zoom from your project into the editor
  • Window recording follows the window as it moves
  • GIF exports use far less memory and finish faster
  • Slim scroll bars throughout

Fixed

  • Settings no longer crashes while looking for Claude Code
  • A recording is never lost. Takes cut short by a crash, a full disk or an unplugged display are recovered
  • Cancelling an export no longer freezes it
  • Many smaller crash fixes

Mazic 0.2.0

New

  • What's new. After each update, see what changed and jump straight into new features with Try it
  • Updates that never interrupt. Mazic downloads new versions in the background and installs them when you quit, or with one click on Restart to Update

Improved

  • Update button in the editor, the library and the menu bar whenever a new version is ready
  • New features get a small blue dot in the sidebar until you've opened them
  • Launch Film. The launch video feature now has the same name everywhere in Mazic

Changed

  • Mazic checks for updates every hour instead of every six hours

Fixed

  • Mazic now always appears in System Settings when you allow Screen Recording

Mazic 0.1.0

  • The first version of Mazic. Record your screen and get a polished product video, with motion graphics, without After Effects
  • Recording. Screen, camera and microphone together; start or stop from any app with ⌥⌘↩; a recent-projects shelf drops from the top of the screen
  • Smooth cursor. Shaky mouse paths become calm, deliberate glides, without re-recording
  • Auto zoom. Follows your clicks and frames the action
  • Camera layouts. Picture-in-picture, side by side or full frame, switchable any time
  • Edit by transcript. Delete a word and the video goes with it; transcripts are made on your Mac (Parakeet or Whisper) and are ready the moment you stop recording
  • Captions. Word-by-word captions in several styles
  • Noise removal. Fans, hum, keyboard and room hiss come out on your Mac, with a strength control
  • Timeline. Trim, split and reorder clips; transitions on every cut (dip, flash, blur, zoom, whip, glitch); layers, sounds and music
  • Director. Ask in plain words and it adds motion graphics, titles and effects to your video
  • Launch films. Director turns your product into a motion-graphics launch video, with designed screens built from your brand
  • Voice and sound. AI voiceover lines, sound effects, and an original music track that ducks under speech
  • Generated visuals. Images and illustrated layers made for your scene
  • Title animations, templates, elements and full-screen slides, all editable and following your brand kit
  • Notes to edits. Pin notes to moments in your video and Director makes the changes
  • Formats. One edit in landscape, vertical and square
  • Export to MP4 (H.264 or HEVC) and GIF, and play any project full screen
  • Privacy. Names, emails, home folders and API keys are blurred in product screenshots
  • Import your Screen Studio projects
  • Mazic Teams. Workspaces, invites, shared projects with live sync, a shared media library and workspace API keys
  • Share links. Comments land on the exact frame; public pages, passwords, expiry and downloads
  • Bring your own Claude account or API keys, or use Mazic's included AI
  • Mazic updates itself, and you'll see what's new right here
