5 demos free, forever, with no card required. Paid from $15.99/month.

The fastest way to create a product demo is to stop creating and start recording. Everything a viewer needs to see already exists on your screen.

This captures it as you click, writes the first draft of the captions from the controls you pressed, and leaves you editing rather than authoring.

STEP 1
Decide the one job

A demo should show one job done start to finish. Pick it before recording and the demo writes itself.

STEP 2
Record it once

Click through that job at a normal pace. Each step is captured with the screen and a caption.

STEP 3
Cut and clean

Remove the steps that were setup rather than value, and blur anything that should not be public.

STEP 4
Publish

Send the link, embed it, or export it as a video when the channel needs one.

Real screens beat mockups

A demo built in a design tool looks like a design tool, and buyers have learned to spot it. A recording of the actual product carries a credibility a mockup cannot buy.

It is also faster to keep current: when a screen changes you re-record that step rather than rebuilding an illustration of it.

The parts most people forget

  • Start populated. An empty state is the least convincing screen in your product.
  • Blur real names before publishing, not after somebody notices.
  • End with an ask. A demo that stops strands the person who liked it.
  • Check it on a phone, since a good share of viewers will open it there.

Questions

How do I create a product demo?

Pick one job your product does, record yourself doing it, cut the setup steps, blur anything private, and publish it as a link. The recording is the fast part; deciding which single job to show is what makes it good.

Should a demo use real screens or mockups?

Real screens. Buyers recognise a mockup and discount it, and a recording is faster to keep current — when the UI changes you re-record one step instead of rebuilding an illustration of the whole flow.

How long should a product demo be?

As many steps as one complete job takes. Demos get long by covering three jobs badly rather than one well, so the fix for a long demo is usually removing the second job, not narrating faster.
