What would it cost?
Nothing to us: there's no account with us and no subscription. Your videos live in your own
Cloudflare account, and Cloudflare charges for storage only. At normal quality, about three
hours of video fits in Cloudflare's free tier. Beyond that it's about 5 cents per hour of
video per month. Delete old videos and the bill goes down. Cloudflare doesn't charge for
people watching.
A team of 20, an hour each a month: $0.85 with 30-day cleanup, $11.85 kept a year.

For developers
shroom is a Tauri v2 app with a Rust core, plus the small Cloudflare Worker it sets up in
your account. The app builds and records on a Mac with Apple silicon; most tests run
anywhere.
npm ci
cargo test --workspace # the Rust core; the recording tests need a Mac
npm test --workspace app # the app's webviews
npm run test:site # shroom.am
