It fits when

What a demo video does

A demo video does the walkthrough your sales team would do on a call, before the call. It follows one real workflow from start to finish, in the order a new user would do it, and says why each step matters. Prospects who watch it arrive at a call already knowing how the product works, or they sign up without needing one.

A demo is longer than a launch film or an explainer, because the viewer has already chosen to learn. That is why we make it 60 to 90 seconds: long enough to show a full workflow, short enough to hold attention. Our guide on how long a product demo video should be explains the trade-off.

Recording a demo yourself, or having it made

A screen recording with your own voice can be a good demo, especially early on. Our guide on how to make a product demo video walks through doing it yourself, and the free demo video script generator writes the script. A made demo is worth it when the film will be seen by many prospects: clean screens, steady pacing, captions and every format make it easier to watch and easier to share.

How it works

  1. Brief. Tell us the workflow to show and who watches it. Add screenshots or a recording if the product is behind a login.
  2. Storyboard. Each step of the workflow, the words on screen and the voiceover, on one page. Free to approve or change.
  3. Preview. A private, watermarked preview of the full demo.
  4. Payment and files. Pay by bank transfer when you are happy, and we send the demo in every format.

Where to use it

Put the demo on your pricing or product page, link it from sales emails, send it before calls, and use it as the longer video in your Product Hunt gallery. Our Product Hunt launch video guide covers the gallery.

Frequently asked questions

How long should a product demo video be?

Between 60 and 90 seconds for most SaaS products. That is long enough to show one full workflow and short enough that most viewers finish it. Shorter films, such as a 30 second explainer, suit homepages better.

What does a product demo video cost with you?

Adding a 60 to 90 second demo to any package costs $299, so the lowest price is One Film plus the demo. Launch + Ads includes a 60 second demo along with the launch film and ad cuts. Prices are fixed and shown on this page.

Can the demo show a product behind a login?

Yes. Send screenshots, a screen recording or a demo account. We rebuild the screens, so no real customer data appears unless you want it to.

Is there a voiceover?

Yes. Every film comes with a narrated version and a music-only version, plus captions and a subtitle file, so it works with the sound on or off.
