How does library search work for design recordings?

Every recording is automatically transcribed, published or not. Your team searches the library by what was said in any recording, not just the title. Hit ⌘K from anywhere in the app, search a phrase or concept, and we surface the recordings where it came up. You can also filter by tag, creator, or date.

Can we tag recordings by project or design system?

Yes. Tags are searchable across the whole org library. Tag by project, by feature, by design system component, or whatever makes your team's content findable. A designer six months from now can search the tag "checkout" and find everything your team recorded about that flow.

Does this work for recording Figma in the browser?

Yes. Open Figma in your browser, start a tab recording, and walk through your prototype or design file. You're not limited to the browser, though: you can share any application window or your entire screen, so a desktop design tool, a native app, or anything else on your machine records exactly the same way. The recorder captures the screen and your audio commentary either way.

Can we share a recording with stakeholders who aren't on the team?

Yes. Published recordings get a public link. Anyone with the link can watch in their browser, no Pixelmatic account required. Useful for sharing designs with client stakeholders, executive reviews, or external collaborators.

Is there a limit on how many recordings we can store?

Cloud storage varies by plan: Short, Feature, and Blockbuster tiers differ by publish volume and storage quota. Recording itself is unlimited (local-first). Contact us if you need higher limits.

Design reviews

The trade-off discussion,
findable months later.

Record the walkthrough. Talk through why you landed on this layout, what you rejected, and what the constraints were. That reasoning stays in your org's library, searchable forever, so you're not explaining it again next quarter.

The problem

Design decisions get made.
The reasoning disappears.

"Why did we do it this way?": Six months after the design decision, nobody remembers the rationale. The designer who made the call moved to a different project. The trade-offs that seemed obvious are invisible now.
New designers inherit decisions they don't understand.: They work around constraints without knowing what the constraints are for. They propose changes that relitigate settled discussions. Not because they're not good, but because there's no artifact.
Stakeholders push back and you have nothing to point to.: "We considered that option and ruled it out for [reason]" is a strong response. "We considered that option" is weak. The reasoning that wasn't documented doesn't exist.
The design review happens in Zoom. The thinking evaporates.: The best discussions happen in the walkthrough: the real trade-offs, the context, the half-finished thinking. Then the recording sits in someone's Zoom history for 90 days and disappears.

How Pixelmatic helps

The rationale stays in the library.

Record where the design lives: The recorder is browser-based, so it works wherever you're showing the work. Recording a Figma prototype in the browser? Tab-share it. Showing a staging environment? Same thing.
The reasoning is now searchable text: Every recording is automatically transcribed, published or not. "We ruled out the tab-based nav because of the mobile constraints" becomes a searchable phrase in your org's library.
Find past decision recordings by what was said: Search across your whole team's recordings by phrase, tag, creator, or title. "What were the constraints on the checkout flow redesign?" Search it, find the recording, jump to the moment.
Share with stakeholders without a login: Published recordings get a public link. Share it in a Notion doc, in a Slack thread, in a PR comment. Stakeholders open it in their browser, no account required.

Where this pays off

Design work worth preserving.

Design decision walkthroughs with rationale for the library
Async design reviews without scheduling a review call
Sharing a prototype walkthrough with stakeholders for feedback
Onboarding new designers to existing design decisions
Documenting what was considered and rejected during a redesign
