Domain Rating
Domain Rating is an Ahrefs backlink-strength metric, not a Google ranking score or a measure of product quality. Public readings must match the current product domain and be no more than 21 days old. History covers recorded readings for that domain; missing history does not mean the rating never changed.

What is SmoothCut?
SmoothCut is a screen recorder that turns a raw recording into a polished video without an editing session. You record. SmoothCut adds zooms that follow your cursor, smooths and resizes the cursor, removes background noise, cuts silences and filler words, and writes captions, all on your own computer. Every automatic edit stays editable, so you keep control of the final cut. It runs on macOS and Windows, works offline and needs no account. Instead of a monthly fee you pay once: Personal ($79) for one computer, or Pro ($169) for five computers with lifetime updates. The free trial includes every feature, exporting included, with a watermark.
Selected listed features
A recording that looks edited, without the editing.
The things a good editor would do to a screen recording -- move in on what matters, calm the cursor, place the camera -- happen on their own. Take over any of them from the timeline.
Your voice, without the room.
Most recordings are let down by the audio before anyone judges the picture. The chain that fixes that runs on your computer and is on by default.
The afternoon you would have spent in an editor.
The whole recording can be fixed in one pass, and the parts that need a person -- a caption, a retake -- are found and lined up for you.
One link, or any format.
A recording is a message. It should get to the person it is for in the shape they will watch it in, without a render queue in between.
