Mocha Keeps Brewing: ScreenMotion and RetroFilter Join the Creative Tools Menu
ScreenMotion is out of coming soon and RetroFilter is brand new. Mocha now serves 10 native creative tools - screen recording with motion effects, film-look photo filters, and more - all offline and all included in one subscription.
ScreenMotion: Screen Recording with Motion, Done Locally
ScreenMotion turns your screen recordings into polished videos without sending a single frame to the cloud. Record the full screen, a window, or any region. Add motion: pans, zooms, callouts. Export a clean video file. No watermark. No upload. No render queue in a browser tab.
For anyone who's ever opened a heavyweight editor just to trim a screen recording and add a zoom effect, ScreenMotion is the lighter tool that actually does the job.
RetroFilter: Film-Look Photo Filters That Stay on Your Machine
RetroFilter applies film-era color grading to your photos: Portra warmth, Tri-X grain, Velvia saturation. Batch-export the results. Every filter runs locally on your Mac. Your photos never leave your drive.
It's built for photographers who want a specific look without opening Lightroom, and for anyone who misses the texture of film but shoots digital.
What's in Mocha Now
Mocha started June with just three apps. It now has ten:
- CremaStudio - pro photo editing with layers, masks, and filters
- ScreenMotion - screen recording with motion effects
- DesignBrew - technical layouts and drafting
- BrewCAD - DWG/DXF viewer and editor
- BrewBIM - native BIM viewer for IFC, RVT, and DWF files
- Pixpresso - image viewer, crop, resize, annotate, convert
- ResumeRoast - resume builder with clean PDF export
- RetroFilter - film-look photo filters with batch export
- VectorStudio - vector graphics editor (coming soon)
- MokaStudio - professional video editor (coming soon)
That's a creative suite covering photo editing, screen recording, CAD, BIM, image conversion, resume design, and film grading. Vector editing and pro video are on the way. All ten apps run natively on macOS and Windows. All ten work offline. All ten are included in a single $9.99 subscription.
Why Native Creative Tools Matter
Creative software has been drifting toward browsers for years. Canva, Figma, web-based photo editors. They're convenient until your internet cuts out, or a file is too large, or the tab eats 4GB of RAM.
Native creative tools run at the speed of your machine. They access your local filesystem directly. They don't compress your exports before uploading them to a server. And when you're done, your work is a file on your drive, not a URL behind a login wall.
ScreenMotion and RetroFilter both work this way. No accounts. No cloud processing. Just native Mac and Windows apps that do one thing well.
ScreenMotion and RetroFilter are live now in the Mocha category. If you're already subscribed, update your apps to grab them. If you're not, the full Mocha lineup, plus 40+ apps across six other categories, is included in every plan.
