What is Focus Cursor?
This tool clearly highlights the cursor, making movements and clicks easy to follow. It’s ideal for conferences, teaching, and video tutorials, helping audiences stay engaged and better understand your actions.
Problem
Presenters and educators rely on standard cursor visibility during screen sharing, leading to audience disengagement and difficulty tracking cursor movements in conferences, tutorials, or lectures.
Solution
A cursor highlighting and markup tool that visually emphasizes cursor movements and enables real-time screen annotations. Users can customize cursor effects (e.g., trails, colors) and add on-screen drawings to guide viewers’ attention.
Customers
