# Animated Cursors by Tella

> Tella is an all-in-one screen recorder with AI video editing, that lets startups and entrepreneurs create quick video messages, social demos, and long-form videos without switching apps. Recording, editing and sharing in one tool.

## Summary
Tella redraws the cursor from mouse data captured while recording, so its style and motion can be changed in the editor after the fact.

## Core Features
- Cursor style: macOS, Windows, or touch cursor, at any size
- Smooth movement: smooth the recorded cursor path, with adjustable strength
- Movement tilt: tilt the cursor as it moves horizontally
- Click spring: shrink and spring back on every click
- Click ripple: show a ripple around each click, with adjustable size
- Hide when inactive: fade the cursor out when it stops moving
- Return to start at the end: move the cursor back to its starting position

## Requirements
- Screen recordings from the Tella Mac and Windows apps include cursor data
- The Chrome extension captures cursor data when recording a browser tab, not a window or the entire screen
