Bug Reports: Convert a screen recording into a complete written bug report.

Upload a screen recording reproducing a bug, and we'll extract a structured GitHub/Jira-ready report: numbered repro steps, expected vs actual behaviour, severity, and the environment we could detect from the screen. Saves you 10 minutes of writing per ticket.

Built for QA teams, support engineers, product teams, and developers.

Workflow fit

Built for teams that need evidence, not just summaries.

VidScanner Bug Reports is designed for QA teams, support engineers, product teams, and developers. Instead of treating video as a file to watch from start to finish, the app indexes the recording, identifies important moments, and turns the source footage into a structured deliverable that can be searched and reviewed.

The workflow starts with a short screen recording of the bug happening. The strongest results come from recordings where the camera lingers on important evidence and the speaker narrates key context. VidScanner keeps the generated output tied to the source video so reviewers can verify what was seen or said before they export it.
