We just made AI Insights completely free on Drefly, here's everything the platform does now
Been heads-down building this out, so wanted to share where Drefly stands today.
The big update: AI Insights is now 100% free, no paywall, no credit limits. Every screen recording on record.drefly.pro automatically gets:
An accurate transcript
A summary of the whole recording
Auto-generated chapter markers
Translation into dozens of languages
A "perception scan" that reads on-screen text and context frame by frame, not just what was said out loud
You can also edit any of these insights after they're generated (fix a transcript line, tighten a summary) and download them individually, as a bundle, or baked into the video itself.
We also support BYOK (bring your own key) if you want to use your own AI provider key instead of ours, useful if you're already paying for a model elsewhere or want more control over usage.
That perception scan has been the differentiator for us. Most transcript tools only capture audio. We wanted something that understands what's actually happening on screen too, code in an IDE, text in a doc, a UI you're walking someone through.
On sharing: recordings go out with a PIN, and you get full control over exactly which AI insights are included in that share. Want to share the video and summary but hold back the raw transcript? You can. Viewers can comment with pinning and reporting, synced live back to you.
Since a few people have asked "what else does Drefly actually do," here's the full picture:
drefly.pro, the core toolkit. Screen recording, video conversion (MP4/WEBM/MOV), PDF tools (merge, compress, split, convert, edit), image resizing/conversion, media extraction from post URLs, and AI-powered summarization/translation/restructuring. No signup, no install, runs entirely in the browser.
record.drefly.pro, screen recording with the full AI layer above, PIN-protected sharing with customizable insight visibility, editable and downloadable AI insights, BYOK support, and downloads up to 4K in MP4, MOV, MKV, FLV, AVI, WEBM, or GIF.
developer.drefly.pro, the same recording and AI toolkit, built for teams: customer calls, support sessions, bug reports, demos, onboarding. Same transcript, summary, translation, sharing, and download features, plus the option to pipe recordings straight into your own S3-compatible storage instead of staying locked in.
PDF tools, this is honestly where we started and still our deepest feature set: convert pages to PNG/JPG, merge images into a PDF, combine or split PDFs, compress without wrecking readability, rotate/delete/reorder pages, annotate regions for sharing to WhatsApp, Slack, email, or X, and pull embedded images/icons into a zip.
Office bridge, Word to PDF and back, Excel to print ready PDF, PDF tables/text into editable Excel, slide decks flattened to PDF.
Everything's drag and drop: pick a tool, upload, get your file. No account required anywhere on the platform.
Would genuinely love feedback on the AI Insights stuff specifically, that's the part we're iterating on fastest right now. record.drefly.pro if you want to try it.
