Tella and Dailies both end with a polished video you can post. They differ on when the video gets made. With Tella you decide to make one: you open the recorder, capture your screen and your camera, then edit from the transcript until it looks right. With Dailies you decide nothing: you hold in Chrome the client call you were going to hold anyway, and a few minutes later up to eight captioned vertical shorts are waiting. Tella is a screen recorder for the videos you set out to make. Dailies is for the ones you would never have sat down to record.
Checked against Tella’s own site on October 1, 2026.
Dailies
For people who never find the time to record, and whose best material is already said in calls with their clients.
Tella
For people who record demos, courses or updates on purpose and want a polished result, with layouts, zooms and subtitles they control.

Tella is an all-in-one screen recorder to record, edit and share demos, courses and updates. It captures your screen, camera, microphone and system audio on Mac, on Windows or in the browser, and has a Chrome extension. A Tella video is made of clips you record and arrange, which can also be exported as separate MP4 files. Editing happens in the transcript: you delete mistakes, filler words and silences from the text, and Tella removes background noise and echo. It adds automatic layouts, backgrounds and zoom effects. The canvas can be set to 9:16, with presets for TikTok, YouTube Shorts, Instagram and LinkedIn, and layouts adapt when the orientation changes. Subtitles come with presets and a custom size, position, font and colours, can highlight the word being spoken, and are burned in on export. Videos download in up to 4K at 60 frames per second, or are shared by link.
Tella starts when you press record with a video in mind: a demo, a lesson, an update. That takes an idea and time set aside. Dailies starts from a call that would have happened anyway. You talk to your client as usual, and the advice you give them becomes the footage. If you enjoy recording, Tella gives you more control. If you never get round to it, Dailies removes the step.
In Tella, you do. A video is made of the clips you record and arrange, and you cut what you do not want from the transcript. We found no automatic selection of passages on the pages we read. Dailies picks by itself: from each call it keeps up to eight passages, cuts their silences, filler words and false starts, and gives each a line that says which question it answers.
Tella can capture a call as a screen recording: its own blog explains how to record a Zoom meeting with its screen recorder, and its Mac recorder captures system audio. The result is a recording of your screen. Tella’s pages do not mention separate tracks for the people on a call. Dailies records the call tab, your microphone and your webcam, the webcam on a track of its own, then reframes each short on whoever speaks: you full screen, or your guest cropped on their face out of their tile.
Tella is built for product demos, tutorials and courses. It gives you an editor, with layouts, zoom effects, customisable subtitles and exports in up to 4K. Dailies does not edit a video you upload: it only makes shorts from the calls it recorded, downloaded in Full HD.
Yes, as a screen recording. Tella’s blog explains how to record a Zoom meeting with its screen recorder, and says its Mac recorder captures system audio. The pages we read do not mention a separate track per participant. Dailies records Google Meet, Microsoft Teams and Zoom’s web client from Chrome, with your webcam on a track of its own.
We found no automatic selection of passages on the pages we read. A Tella video is made of clips you record and arrange, and is edited from its transcript. Dailies picks up to eight passages per call by itself and delivers each as a finished short.
Yes. Tella’s canvas can be set to 9:16, with presets for TikTok, YouTube Shorts, Instagram and LinkedIn, and its subtitles are burned in on export, with presets and active-word highlighting. Dailies also delivers captioned vertical shorts; the difference is that it cuts them from your calls, with nothing for you to record or edit.
No. Dailies only makes shorts from the calls it records in Chrome, and it does not edit a video you upload. For a demo, a tutorial or a course, a screen recorder such as Tella is the right kind of tool.
Add Dailies to Chrome, record the call you were going to have anyway, and watch its shorts a few minutes after you hang up.
