CaptureGem saves public Stripchat shows to your computer. You don't need a Stripchat account. This guide walks you from installing the app to finding the saved video.
Free to start, and the same steps on Windows, macOS and Linux.
CaptureGem is free to download and use, with no account needed. Download CaptureGem for Windows, macOS or Linux and open the desktop app.
If you already have CaptureGem, update to the latest version.
Example link
https://stripchat.com/model_usernameOpen the model's room and copy the address from the browser bar. Links on strip.chat, stripchat.global, stripchat.ooo, stripchat.cam and stripchat.org are recognized too, including language subdomains such as de.stripchat.global.
The names and numbers in these examples are placeholders; use the ones from the real page.
Go to the Record tab and paste the link into Enter URL or Username in the Add Stream panel; CaptureGem switches Select Website to Stripchat on its own. Prefer typing? Pick Stripchat under Select Website and enter just the username.
Keep Monitor Only switched off so the stream is saved, then click Add Stream.

Recording a model's VR show? Choose StripchatVR under Select Website before you add the model, because a pasted link otherwise adds regular Stripchat. See the StripchatVR guide.
While the model is in a public show, the row switches to Recording within a few seconds. Otherwise the Status column explains why nothing is being saved:
Hover over a status for more detail, such as the reason behind an Errored status.
When a recording finishes, CaptureGem converts it into a video file; long recordings can take a little while. Open the Review tab to play, trim, tag or delete it, or click Open Video Folder on the Record tab.
Recordings are MP4 files by default. With Premium, each file runs up to 60 minutes by default and auto-record starts the next one straight away. You can change the save location, the file length (Cap Video Segments at Duration (Minutes)) and the container in Settings.
The free version saves up to 5 minutes per recording and lets you add up to 10 models. It records a model when you add or start them while they are live, so if the model was offline, start the recording again later.
Premium removes those limits and adds auto-record: select the model on the Record tab, choose Modify Auto Record under Actions and pick Record Always. CaptureGem then records whenever the model comes online and restarts after a disconnect. To do this for every model you add, turn on Auto Record All Newly Added Models in Settings.
The Monitor tab shows live previews of everything you are recording.
Compare the free version and PremiumThe model may have blocked viewers in your country. If the show won't play in your browser either, CaptureGem can't record it from where you are.
Under Settings > Advanced Settings, Stripchat API Domain switches between strip.chat (the default) and stripchat.com; try the other one if room checks keep failing. Use cURL for Stripchat Requests is on by default, and switching it off makes CaptureGem use its built-in browser, which can work better in some countries.
CaptureGem notices a blocked video server and moves to a backup automatically. If Stripchat refuses one quality, recording carries on at the next best.
CaptureGem takes the best quality Stripchat offers. To save bandwidth and disk space, set a lower Stripchat limit under Max Resolution Per Site in Advanced Settings.
CaptureGem records public shows. If you can watch a private show in your own browser, Premium's Proxy feature can save it as well. See the proxy guide for Windows, macOS or Linux.
If a recording keeps failing, update CaptureGem, check that the stream plays in your browser, and ask in our Discord community. Premium members can also send a failed recording to support.
Download CaptureGem for free and follow the steps above to add your first stream.
