Sharing a Product Demo With a Link
August 20, 2026
The share link is the quietest but most useful thing an interactive demo gives you: one URL that shows your product working, opens anywhere, and needs nothing from the person receiving it.
Most of its value is in what it removes.
What the viewer has to do
- Click it. No account, no download, no plugin.
- Nothing else. It runs in any modern browser, on a phone as well as a laptop.
- Nothing installed in your product either, since the demo is a capture rather than a live session.
It stays current after you send it
This is the part that separates a link from a recording. Fix a screen and everyone who opens the link afterwards sees the fix, including people you sent it to last month.
A video attachment is frozen the moment you send it, and the wrong version circulates for as long as anyone keeps the email.
You find out what happened to it
A link reports whether it was opened and which step viewers stopped on. In a deal, that is the difference between silence and knowing the demo circulated and stalled on step three.
Basic analytics are on the free plan and Starter. Per-step drop-off and viewer detail are on Growth at $39.99 a month.
Where a link goes
- A sales email or follow-up, where an attachment would be ignored.
- A proposal or RFP response, which is read by more people than attended your call.
- A help article or a support reply, answering "how do I set this up" completely.
- Your own site, either as a link or an embedded iframe — both work on every plan.
Frequently asked questions
- Do viewers need an account to watch an interactive demo?
- No. A share link opens in any modern browser with no account, download or plugin, on a phone as well as a laptop, and nothing is installed in the product being demoed.
- What happens to a demo link after I edit the demo?
- It keeps working and shows the updated version, including for people you sent it to previously. That is the main advantage over a recorded video, which is frozen the moment you send it.
- Can I tell whether someone opened my demo?
- Yes. Basic view analytics are on the free and Starter plans; per-step drop-off and viewer-level detail are on Growth at $39.99 a month.
