CapyCursor is a lightweight Windows tool that makes on-screen presentations clearer and more engaging. Teachers, YouTubers, and meeting presenters can use it to highlight the cursor, draw directly on the screen, spotlight specific areas, zoom in on details, and switch to a blank whiteboard — all with a single hotkey. Works system-wide alongside Zoom, Google Meet, PowerPoint, or any browser. No setup complexity, no performance lag. Ideal for online teaching, tutorial recording, and live demos.
Hey everyone 👋
I’m the maker of CapyCursor — really excited to finally share this with you today!
CapyCursor started from a simple frustration: during presentations, recordings, or even daily work, it’s surprisingly hard to make your screen interactions clear and engaging. The default cursor just isn’t built for communication.
So we built CapyCursor to help you present, explain, and highlight better on screen, with features like:
🎨 Cursor skins (make your cursor actually visible & fun)
🖊️ Screen annotation & drawing
🔍 Spotlight & magnifier for focus
🧑🏫 Perfect for creators, teachers, and streamers
We tried to keep it lightweight, simple, and actually useful in real scenarios—not just another flashy tool.
Would love your feedback:
👉 What’s the one feature you wish your cursor could do?
I’ll be here all day to answer questions. Thanks so much for checking it out 🙌
IT is so refreshing to see new products that dont involve AI and are actually useful for our day to day.
I downloaded capy cursor and loved how easy it is to install, how little time it takes and also how user friendly it is.
I think is great that you have options for free features which are very useful for presentations.
My only feedback is that i honestly was expecting an actual cursor with the shape of a capybara. That would be amazing!
The ability to draw directly on screen is super useful. Can you detail the drawing tools?
