Release videos for product managers

The feature is done, and now you need a video for the announcement, the release notes, and the internal walkthrough. RunDemo generates all three from your real product, so the PM who shipped the feature can also show it, on the same day.

A product manager is the person who understands a new feature best and has the least time to film it. So the announcement goes out as text, the internal teams learn the feature from a Slack thread, and the polished video never gets made. RunDemo closes that gap: describe the flow, point it at the feature in your live product, and an AI agent performs the walkthrough while a synchronized voiceover explains each step.

You get a shareable narrated MP4 of the actual release, ready for the changelog, the launch email, the sales enablement doc, and the internal wiki, produced in the window between "it shipped" and "everyone forgot it shipped."

Feature announcements that ship on release day

The value of a launch video decays by the hour. RunDemo lets the PM generate one the moment the feature is live: describe what changed, show the new flow, and attach a narrated demo to the announcement and the in-app what's-new. Because the agent drives the real product, the video shows the feature exactly as it shipped, not a staging build or a mockup. If the change is behind a flag or a login, the agent can run it with test credentials that are used only for the render and deleted afterward.

Release notes people actually watch

Written release notes are necessary and largely unread. A 45-second narrated clip attached to each meaningful change turns the changelog into something users open. The reason PMs do not do this today is cost per note; RunDemo makes each clip a prompt, so even a modest release can carry a demo for its two or three headline changes. And when you tweak the narration, "call this out first," "explain the permission model" you edit the transcript and re-render in seconds rather than re-recording.

Internal walkthroughs for sales, support, and CS

Every release needs an internal version of the story: sales needs to pitch it, support needs to troubleshoot it, and CS needs to teach it. Recording a proper internal walkthrough is exactly the kind of task that slips. With RunDemo the PM can generate a clear internal demo alongside the external one, from the same flow, and drop it into the enablement doc so the whole go-to-market org sees the feature the same way. It also removes the "can you just hop on a call and show me" tax on the PM's calendar.

A living demo library, not a graveyard

Most demo libraries are archaeology: videos recorded against UIs that no longer exist. Because RunDemo demos are regenerated against the live product, a PM can keep a current walkthrough for each major feature and refresh the ones a redesign touched, instead of letting the whole library rot. Pro at $29/mo covers 30 demos and Scale at $99/mo covers 150, which comfortably fits an active release calendar and the internal and external cuts each release needs.

Frequently asked questions

Can I make internal and external versions of the same demo?

Yes. Because the narration is a transcript you edit, you can generate an external announcement demo and an internal enablement walkthrough from the same flow, each with its own script, and re-render either in seconds.

Will the video show the feature exactly as it shipped?

Yes. The AI agent drives your live product, so the walkthrough reflects the real, released UI rather than a mockup or an old recording.

Can it demo a feature behind a flag or login?

Yes. You can supply test credentials so the agent signs in and reaches the feature. The credentials are used only for the render and deleted afterward.

How do I keep release videos from going stale?

Regenerate them against the live product when the UI changes. Because the agent performs the real flow rather than replaying footage, updating a demo is a re-run, not a re-shoot.
