What do employees at HBO, Spotify, Facebook, Netflix, MailChimp, Amazon, FourSquare, The New York Times, Tumblr, Etsy, BuzzFeed, and GitHub all have in common? They all use CloudApp. It’s a video and image sharing tool that makes team collaboration much easier and saves you a significant amount of time personally — and you can get it for 97% off right now. But more on those benefits and that deal in a moment.

First, here’s how it works: It allows you to capture anything on your screen or webcam — GIFS, HD video recordings, images — and instantly turns each file into a shareable link. As soon as the link is generated, you can share it with your co-workers or clients just as instantly.

A small CloudApp icon sits at the top of your screen that gives you access to a small but highly useful dashboard where you’ll find tools to make capture videos, GIFs or anything else much easier. You can also find the annotation tool, which allows for easy markup or commenting (including emojis) on whatever you’ve captured.

Back to the benefits.

It’s makes collaboration seamless and (really) easy.

This all-inclusive platform allows you to share just about anything with your team while integrating productivity services like Trello, Slack, and HipChat to streamline your workflow. Each screen drop comes with its own analytics report that shows who's viewing your drops from where. You can customize these drops using the advanced share settings, which control who does (and doesn't) get to see your screen drop, and for how long.

It’s a true time saver.

There are so many productivity tools that are built to save you time and make your workflow more efficient, but it’s less common to find one that explicitly tells you how much time it saves you on a weekly basis.

Make your day more efficient and your team faster with a lifetime subscription to CloudApp's team plan, available for a limited time in The Daily Beast Shop for just $29.99 — an unparalleled savings of 97%.
