About

Hi — I'm Dominion, an indie developer. I built Tau because I kept wanting to share my work — coding sessions, design explorations, side projects — but every tool I tried was either a 4GB video of me typing slowly, or a sped-up mess with no personality.

Timelapse should be easy. Record your screen or camera, export something worth sharing, move on. I couldn't find an app that did that cleanly, so I built one.

Tau is a one-person project. I build it, support it, and use it myself. When something breaks or doesn't work how it should, I hear about it directly — and I fix it.

“Stop making boring timelapses.”

That's the whole idea.

Tau works on macOS and Windows. It records at frame intervals natively — not a sped-up video, but a proper timelapse. You can record your screen, your camera, or both at once. Edit, add overlays, attach audio, and export to MP4, GIF, or WEBM without touching another app.

One-time payment. No subscription. Free updates for the current major version.

I also build Luttie — a browser colour grading tool that exports LUTs. Different problem, same itch: the footage you record still has to be graded, and neither step should need a subscription.
