Interactive Demo
Screenshot-based walkthroughs with guided hotspots, callouts, and branching flows.
Interactive Demos are the fastest way to create a guided product walkthrough. You capture screenshots of your product, add hotspots and callouts, and publish a step-by-step experience that viewers click through at their own pace.
When to use Interactive Demo
- Product tours for landing pages and onboarding emails.
- Sales enablement where reps need a consistent, repeatable walkthrough.
- Feature announcements that show a flow without requiring a live environment.
- Documentation where a visual guide is clearer than written instructions.
How it works
- Capture screenshots of your product using the browser extension, URL import, or file upload.
- Arrange the screenshots into a flow in the visual editor.
- Add hotspots to guide viewers through each step.
- Optionally add branching to let viewers choose their path.
- Publish and share via link, embed, or Demo Center.
