Arcade review
Arcade is a tool for capturing a web product's screens and turning them into interactive, clickable product demos, plus demo videos and visuals, that can be embedded on a site or shared by link.
Verdict
Independent discussion is thin: only 4 non-promotional comments carry a real opinion, and most mentions are founders linking their own Arcade demos without judging the tool. The few users who say anything like the free starting point (three free arcades, with AI voiceover) and recording through the Chrome extension, then editing afterwards. On the downside, one embedded demo was slow to load, and one commenter rated Arcade a good option only for teams without budget for a custom-built interactive demo.

I used Arcade [https://www.arcade.software/](https://www.arcade.software/) I recorded using their Chrome Extension then edited - I also fixed the bugs in the new video by using the direct source & editing it
“Why you’re better” is added because if you already have competitors ahead of you and you’re solving the same problem, you have to answer that thing. If you’re literally the same, you have to find a USP. Your product can be better because its affordable. It can be better because it’s fast, etc. i hope you understand what I meant now. And I would not recommend arcade.software if you have budget. This post is only fo…
This is cool :). A little feedback on the landing page Arcade demo. It is quite slow to load up (over 10 seconds) and also it the example you use (AI) is quite broad and the results don't give direct enough pain points IMO. But amazing work otherwise!
