Third-party notices
ScreenCraft itself is licensed under the MIT License. The application bundles, links to, or downloads the third-party components listed below. Each is the property of its respective authors and is used under its own license. Nothing here changes the terms under which those components are offered.
This file is the authoritative list. The same text is published at https://getscreencraft.pages.dev/third-party-notices.
whisper.cpp (automatic captions)
- Component(s): the C/C++ inference library, statically linked into the ScreenCraft executable
- Used by: Captions → Generate captions (on-device speech recognition)
- License: MIT, Copyright (c) 2023-2026 The ggml authors
- Upstream: https://github.com/ggml-org/whisper.cpp
- Corresponding source: the version vendored by the
whisper-rs-syscrate (0.15.x), available at https://crates.io/crates/whisper-rs-sys - Why it ships: it runs the Whisper model on the user's own machine so no audio is uploaded
ggml (tensor library inside whisper.cpp)
- License: MIT, Copyright (c) 2023-2026 The ggml authors
- Upstream: https://github.com/ggml-org/ggml
- Used by: whisper.cpp (statically linked; Metal backend on macOS, CPU elsewhere)
whisper-rs / whisper-rs-sys
- License: Unlicense (public domain dedication)
- Upstream: https://codeberg.org/tazz4843/whisper-rs
- Used by: Rust bindings that call whisper.cpp
OpenAI Whisper model weights (downloaded on request)
- Component(s):
ggml-tiny.en.bin,ggml-base.en.bin,ggml-small.en.bin,ggml-base.bin - Used by: Captions → Generate captions. Not bundled. Downloaded only when the user starts caption generation and stored in the app data folder.
- License: MIT, Copyright (c) 2022 OpenAI. The ggml conversions are published by the whisper.cpp project.
- Upstream: https://github.com/openai/whisper and https://huggingface.co/ggerganov/whisper.cpp
- Notes: model files are fetched directly from Hugging Face to the user's device; ScreenCraft does not host or redistribute them.
mp4-muxer (JavaScript, bundled in the UI)
- Component(s):
ui/vendor/mp4-muxer.mjs - Used by: MP4 export
- License: MIT, Copyright (c) 2023 Vanilagy (full text:
ui/vendor/mp4-muxer.LICENSE) - Upstream: https://github.com/Vanilagy/mp4-muxer
gifenc (JavaScript, bundled in the UI)
- Component(s):
ui/vendor/gifenc.esm.js - Used by: GIF export
- License: MIT, Copyright (c) 2017 Matt DesLauriers (full text:
ui/vendor/gifenc.LICENSE.md) - Upstream: https://github.com/mattdesl/gifenc (by Matt DesLauriers)
Tauri and the web view
- Tauri 2 and its plugins: MIT OR Apache-2.0 — https://tauri.app
- WKWebView (macOS): part of the operating system, used under Apple's system terms.
- Microsoft Edge WebView2 Runtime (Windows): not bundled. If missing, the installer runs Microsoft's own bootstrapper, which is subject to Microsoft's WebView2 license terms (https://developer.microsoft.com/microsoft-edge/webview2/).
Operating-system frameworks
ScreenCaptureKit, AVFoundation, VideoToolbox, ImageIO, Accelerate (macOS) and Windows.Graphics.Capture, Media Foundation, WASAPI, WIC (Windows) are system components used through their public APIs. They are not redistributed.
symphonia (MPL-2.0 notice)
Audio decoding uses the symphonia crates, licensed under the Mozilla Public License 2.0. They are used
unmodified, as published on crates.io, and linked into the executable. Their source is available at
https://github.com/pdeljanov/Symphonia. MPL-2.0 is a file-level copyleft: it applies to those files only
and places no obligations on the rest of ScreenCraft. The same applies to the other MPL-2.0 crates in the
list below (cssparser, selectors, dtoa-short, option-ext), all unmodified.
Assets created for ScreenCraft
The application icon, procedural wallpapers, cursor artwork, device frames and the click/keyboard sounds
(ui/sounds/*.wav, generated by scripts/make-sounds.py) were created for this project and are covered
by the MIT License. No third-party artwork, fonts or audio samples are bundled.
Rust crates
Resolved from Cargo.lock (all targets, including build tooling). Grouped by license identifier. Where a
crate is offered under several licenses, ScreenCraft elects the most permissive option (MIT or Apache-2.0).
