REC · automatically

Every match recorded.
Every highlight ready.

Postmatch starts recording when your game starts and has the match waiting when you quit — compressed, named and in your library. No hotkeys. No account. No "I wasn't recording".

Record any PC game.

Postmatch starts by itself the moment a game starts — from aces to accidents, it's always rolling (even when you forgot it was there).

No F8 needed.

Other recorders save the last few seconds when you press a key — if you remember. Postmatch has the whole match already, so the play you didn't see coming is on tape too.

Battlefield 6 gameplay recorded by Postmatch

How it works

Three steps. You only do one of them.

  1. REC 00:42:17

    01 · you

    Play

    Launch any game. Postmatch spots it and starts recording, with game sound and your mic on separate tracks. A thin red REC bar is the only sign it's there.

  2. ✓ Saved · compressed to 5.2 GB

    02 · Postmatch

    Quit

    When the game closes, the recording is compressed on your GPU and lands in Matches, named by game and time, with the game's own icon.

  3. CLIP 02 · 0:39

    03 · one click

    Clip

    Pick the match and press Make clips. Postmatch finds the loudest moments and cuts 9:16 clips, ready for Shorts and TikTok.

Features

Built to disappear while you play.

Every match, automatically

Whole sessions, not just the last 30 seconds you remembered to save. The clutch you didn't see coming is already on tape.

Barely there

About 30 MB in the tray when you're not playing, about 113 MB while recording. The dashboard only runs when you open it.

Small files, sharp video

HEVC on your GPU at a VMAF score of 95.9 — visually the same as the source — at 17.7 MB a minute. On PCs that can't play HEVC, it saves H.264.

Shorts-ready clips

Your loudest moments as 9:16 clips, cut and framed for you. Tick a few in the Clips list to share or clear space in one go.

Straight into Discord

One click makes a copy under Discord's 10 MB limit and puts it in front of you, ready to drag into the chat.

Anti-cheat safe

Nothing is injected into your game and no keys are ever sent to it. Postmatch captures the window the way Windows itself does.

Finds your games

Setup scans your PC for installed games — Steam, Riot, Epic, Xbox and more — and each one shows up with its own icon.

Your mic, your choice

Your voice gets its own track next to the game sound. Pick which microphone in Settings, or turn it off.

Never loses a match

Recordings are written crash-safe, so a blue screen mid-game still leaves you everything up to that moment.

Matches

Pick a match. Everything is right there.

Your matches on the left, grouped by day. Click one to see it on the right, with Review, Make clips and Discord one click away.

  • Filter by game — one tidy menu even with dozens of games
  • Every clip made from the match, right under it
  • Search and sort by date, length or size

Clips

From match to Shorts in one click.

Postmatch listens to the match, finds the moments where things got loud, and frames them for vertical video: the action in the middle, a blurred backdrop behind.

  • 9:16, 1080×1920, ready to upload
  • Tick several to share or delete them together
  • One click to a Discord-size copy, under 10 MB
  • Made on your PC — nothing leaves it

Benchmark

Same match. Four recorders. One of them is a tenth the size.

All four recording the same 60 seconds of a live Dota 2 match at 1920×1080, measured per app on one NVIDIA PC.

Our promise

Your game comes first.

Never in your way

Under 2% of your GPU's 3D time and half a percent of CPU while recording.

Never in your game

No injection, no overlays, no keypresses — nothing for anti-cheat to object to.

Never in the cloud

No sign-in and no uploads. Your recordings stay on your drive, in a normal folder. The only time Postmatch goes online is to check for updates.

FAQ

Questions

Is Postmatch free?

Yes, Postmatch is free during the beta, with no ads.

Which games does it record?

Any PC game. Setup scans your PC for installed games, and any game you play fullscreen is recognised from then on: games from Steam, Epic, Riot, Xbox, EA, Ubisoft and GOG, and anything Windows itself knows as a game. You can also add a game by hand in Settings.

Is it safe with anti-cheat?

Postmatch never injects anything into a game or sends it input. It records through Windows' own capture (Windows Graphics Capture, or Desktop Duplication on Windows 10), the same way Windows' own tools do.

Does it work on Windows 10? What's the yellow border?

Yes. Windows draws a yellow border around a window being captured; Windows 11 lets Postmatch hide it. Windows 10 can't hide it, so there Postmatch records the game's area of the screen instead — no border, and while you're alt-tabbed out that part of the video stays black, so nothing else on your screen is recorded.

Will it lower my FPS?

Recording uses your GPU's video encoder, a separate chip from the part that draws your game. In our test it used 1.8% of the GPU's 3D time and 0.5% of the CPU.

Where do my recordings go?

To a Postmatch folder on the drive you pick during setup, one folder per game. You can change it any time in Settings. Nothing is uploaded.

How do I update?

The dashboard checks for new versions and shows an update button — one click downloads, installs and reopens Postmatch. Your settings and recordings are kept. See what's new.

What do I need?

Windows 10 (version 1903) or 11, 64-bit. A GPU with a hardware encoder (NVIDIA, AMD or Intel) gives the smallest files; without one, recordings are kept as H.264.

Something isn't working. How do I get help?

Open Settings and press Send logs: Postmatch saves its logs and your PC's details in one zip and shows it in Explorer. Send that file to whoever helps you — nothing is uploaded on its own.

Play your next match. It's already on tape.
