Arcade 2.0
The easiest way to showcase your product
Hi Product Hunt 👋
About eight months ago, we launched Arcade for the first time. We were floored by the response. Since then, we’ve had over 1k companies publish over 4k external demos! The Product Hunt community is a big reason why we were able to gain the amount of traction that we have.
What is Arcade? We’re an interactive demo platform. We make it easy for you to create, edit, and publish demos (or Arcades, as we call them). You can also measure success and engagement dropoffs with our out of the box analytics.
Today, we’re coming out of beta and launching Arcade 2.0! We’ve been making major updates to our product functionality, including:
📈Product-led: Unlike most of our competitors, we’re actually product-led! You can go right to our website and get started within minutes. We’ve made a lot of investments in a great self-service experience. No more waiting for someone to respond to your “requested a demo” form.
🕹 Arcade Play: We rebuilt our Chrome extension to automatically make video snippets based on actions such as scrolling, drag and drop, and entering text. Press “Record Demo” in our extension to see what we mean!
🥁 Interactive emails and GIFs: We’ve doubled down on our GTM user base who love embedding Arcades inside of homepages, emails, social media and onboarding flows. Since launching, we’ve redesigned our chrome extension to create interactive video based on user actions, and we now support interactive Arcades inside of Gmail, Outlook, Superhuman, and Github! We also allow you to export Arcades as GIFs if you want to promote across channels.
👨👩👧👦 Arcade Teams: If you are a creator and want to collaborate with others inside your company, check out our new Arcade Teams product (in beta). We have signed contracts with Atlassian, Carta, Sentry, AngelList and many more!
🎨 A completely redesigned UI: We gave our product a nice facelift with our new design language.
We’re also one of the easiest interactive demo tools to use. Our median time to publish is 7m. We have a generous free tier as well. Try it out for yourself: http://arcade.software/.
@caroline_clark Congrats on the launch! Just tried it out,
A couple of observations:
1. My use-case involves selecting text and right-clicking on the chrome context bar so it shows up as multiple clicks on the same purple ripple.
2. The demo I'm doing is for inboxpirates, a chrome extension itself, so when I click on a button it takes me to a different tab, I don't see an option to switch the tab mid-way to the current active tab in chrome - is there?
Awesome product though, previously was using a software called shepherd.js and usetiful to accomplish this, it could be a game changer like Loom.
@goforbg Thanks for this thoughtful feedback.
1. I think what you are saying here is that the right click is not showing up inside the demo? Have you tried "Advanced Options" and using a video?
2. Yes, this a challenge. We only capture windows, not chrome extensions themselves. We hacked this a bit with our chrome extension but we used videos and then uploaded them as MP4s. Longer term, we want to invest in a desktop application that can solve this...but it will be a while!
