Zight: Show it, don't type it.

Visit Zight

Zight is a visual communication platform that replaces lengthy written explanations with screen recordings, screenshots, and GIFs shared via secure links. It solves the problem of miscommunication and time lost to typing or scheduling calls by letting users show exactly what they mean. The platform also works in reverse: users can send a request link that allows anyone to record their screen, upload files, or share console logs without needing an account or installing software.

Key capabilities include screen and webcam recording, screenshot capture with annotations, GIF creation, video editing, and file sharing. AI features generate summaries, chapters, step-by-step guides, meeting notes, and smart titles from recordings. The platform integrates with over 90 tools, including Slack, Jira, Zendesk, Intercom, Salesforce Service Cloud, Microsoft Teams, Notion, Confluence, GitHub, and Google Workspace. It also supports MCP connectivity, allowing AI tools like Claude and ChatGPT to read recordings, transcripts, and console logs.

Zight is designed for teams in customer support, engineering, product, training, and sales who need to communicate visually and asynchronously. It offers a free plan, and paid editions are available on a seat-based model.
