Demo videos for developer tools

Technical products are hard to demo and easy to get wrong. RunDemo generates narrated walkthroughs of your dashboard, console, or web app from the real product, so developers see the actual workflow, explained precisely, without you booking a recording session.

Developers do not trust a demo that hand-waves. They want to see the real console, the real request, the real response, and they will notice the moment a video shows a mocked screen. RunDemo is built for that scrutiny: an AI agent opens your actual product in a browser, performs the workflow, and a synchronized voiceover explains each step, so what a developer sees is your live dashboard or web app, not a staged approximation.

The output is a shareable narrated MP4 of the genuine flow, which you can embed in your docs, your quickstart, and your launch, and regenerate whenever the product changes underneath it.

Show the real dashboard, console, and web app

Most developer products have a web surface, a dashboard, an API console, a settings and keys page, a logs view, and that is exactly what RunDemo demos well. Point the agent at your console and describe the task: create a project, generate an API key, wire up a webhook, read the logs. The demo shows the true UI performing the real steps, with narration that names what is happening. For workflows behind auth, the agent can sign in with test credentials that are used only for the render and deleted afterward, so gated dashboards demo cleanly.

Demos your docs can rely on

Documentation is where developers actually evaluate a tool, and a short narrated walkthrough beside a quickstart converts far better than a wall of prose. Because each RunDemo clip is a prompt rather than a recording session, you can attach one to each key doc, the getting-started flow, the auth setup, the primary integration, and keep them all current as the product evolves. When an endpoint moves or the dashboard is redesigned, you regenerate the affected demo instead of leaving docs illustrated with screenshots from two versions ago.

Accurate narration, no live-demo mistakes

Recording a technical walkthrough live is unforgiving: one wrong click, one stale token, one "oops, let me refresh" and you start over. RunDemo separates the doing from the saying. The agent performs the workflow and the narration is a transcript you write and edit, so the explanation is precise and the walkthrough is clean, no dead air while a page loads, no fumbling through a settings menu on camera. If you need to sharpen how you describe a concept, you edit the script and re-render in seconds.

Keep pace with a fast-moving product

Developer tools ship constantly, and demos that cannot keep up become liabilities, a wrong walkthrough is worse than none. RunDemo makes currency cheap: re-run the demo against the live product and the new flow is captured automatically. Free to start, then Pro at $29/mo for 30 demos and Scale at $99/mo for 150, it fits the cadence of a team that ships weekly and wants its demos, docs, and launches to reflect what actually shipped.

Frequently asked questions

Can RunDemo demo the parts of our product behind authentication?
Yes. You can provide test credentials so the AI agent signs in and performs the workflow inside your dashboard or console. The credentials are used only for the render and deleted afterward.
Can it show a real API or CLI workflow?
RunDemo drives the browser surface of your product, so it demos web consoles, dashboards, API key and webhook setup, logs, and settings by performing the real steps. Anything visible in your web app can be walked through and narrated.
Will the demo reflect the actual product or a mockup?
The actual product. The agent opens your live app in a browser and performs the flow, so developers see the real UI rather than a staged screen.
How do we keep technical demos accurate over time?
Regenerate them against the live product when things change. Because the agent performs the real flow, an updated demo is a re-run, and script tweaks re-render in seconds.
