Continuous session recording, reimagined
Record sessions in the background: Multiplayer saves recordings the moment bugs or anomalies occur, making it effortless to capture elusive, hard-to-reproduce problems.
Most session recording tools force you into a tradeoff:
- On-demand recording: Tools like Jam with browser extensions and screencapture. You get control, but you only capture what you remembered to start recording. If an unexpected error happens outside that window, it’s lost forever.
- Traditional continuous recording: Tools like Sentry, FullStory, or LogRocket capture every user session on the frontend. Useful, but overwhelming. Teams end up drowning in data, burning storage on noise, and wasting hours filtering to find the handful of sessions that matter.
Multiplayer takes a different approach
Instead of recording every second of every session forever, we keep a lightweight rolling buffer while you work, adding no latency to your process. If an issue arises, you can instantly save the last snapshot, no need to start the recording and try to reproduce the issue.
We also auto-save sessions when frontend or backend exceptions and errors occur, so you’ll always have the critical context when something breaks.
Because Multiplayer captures the full stack out of the box (frontend interactions, backend traces, logs, request/response content, and headers) you don’t just get more data, you get the right data. No sampling. No noise.
The result: less wasted time searching, lower storage overhead, and higher confidence that the sessions you need are always there.

Overview of recording modes
Multiplayer is versatile by design: with multiple installation options and three recording modes, you always capture the right context. No matter your workflow or team setup, you’ll have the visibility you need to debug, validate, and build with confidence.
On-demand recording
Capture full stack session recordings on demand: manually start and stop a session replay with a browser extension, in-app widget, or SDK.
Developers, QA, product, support, and even external partners can instantly record and share issues, explore system behavior, and collaborate with sketches and annotations to fix bugs or design new features.
Continuous recording
Record all sessions automatically in the background, so reproducing issues is never required. Multiplayer saves recordings the moment bugs or anomalies occur making it effortless to capture elusive, hard-to-reproduce problems.
Remote recording
Silently capture user sessions without any manual steps, bug reports or action from your end users. Multiplayer detects and records issues even when users don't notice or don't report them, giving your team complete context to resolve problems faster and avoid unclear, incomplete tickets.
(This recording mode is coming soon - contact us if you’re interested in early beta).
Why three modes matter
With Multiplayer, you’re not locked into a single recording strategy. On-demand, continuous, and remote modes work together, so your team can choose the right balance of precision, automation, and coverage.
End-to-end visibility is the baseline. What matters is that you always have the right session at the right time, without drowning in noise or losing the context you need to fix, validate, and move forward.
