how does it handle longer workflows when a single click or scroll step would normally look too fast or too slow in the final demo?
the auto zoom follow on my clicks actually worked way better than i expected, no editing needed after. One thing i'd want is a way to slow down sections where i'm typing credentials or something sensitive.
The smart zoom that follows the cursor during playback is such a thoughtful touch, makes the whole demo feel way more intentional than the raw screen recording would. Really clean execution on the keystroke overlays too.
Adding a quick "demo script" overlay mode would be huge for sales teams, like the ability to drop in talking points that appear as subtle captions timed to each click, so the video walks the viewer through the pitch without needing a separate voiceover.
The smart zoom following the cursor is genuinely impressive, way smoother than the choppy pans I usually see in automated editors. Clean execution on something most tools botch.
Recorded a quick product walkthrough and the smart zoom picked up exactly the parts I wanted to highlight, saved me like twenty minutes of editing. The click animations feel smooth, not cheesy.
