# DemoPage vs Arcade: A polished product video, or a live demo each buyer steers.

> Arcade captures your product with your screen and camera and turns it into on-brand AI-generated videos, and sells interactive demos separately. Every viewer sees the video or demo you published. DemoPage opens your real product in a sandboxed browser, walks the screens each buyer asks about, and answers their questions from pages you approved.

Here, Arcade means Arcade's AI product videos and interactive demos. Features differ from tool to tool; this compares the approach. Arcade details checked on October 27, 2026 from <https://www.arcade.software/>, <https://www.arcade.software/pricing>.

| Who decides what's shown | Your team, when it makes the video or demo | The buyer: the route follows what they asked to see |

| Buyer questions | Covered if your video or demo covers them | Answered live in text or voice from your approved pages, with a link to each source |
| When your product UI changes | Make the video again, or edit it | The next demo shows the current product; a nightly check flags approved pages that changed |

## Made once for everyone vs. made for each buyer

Arcade is built for marketing teams that want a studio-quality, on-brand product video without an agency: capture the product, let the AI build the cut, and edit any scene. Every viewer gets the same polished story.

When a prospect clicks your main demo button, they usually want to know how your product handles their problem and their tools. DemoPage asks what they want to see, plans the stops across your approved pages, and walks them through the real product live.

## What happens when your product UI changes

A demo built from captured screens shows your product as it was when someone captured it. A navigation redesign or a renamed menu means going back to recapture the changed steps.

DemoPage opens your live site or sandbox on each run, so the next demo shows the current product. Every night it loads each approved page in a headless browser, checks that its expected text is still there, and holds back any page that changed before a buyer sees it.

## Lead handoff and demos before the first call

After a DemoPage demo, your team gets an email with who watched, what they saw, and what they asked. Starter adds Slack, webhooks, and Zapier.

On Growth and Scale, alerts also carry lead notes in the buyer's own words, the buyer gets a 30-day recap link to forward to their team, and your HubSpot, Salesforce, or Zapier workflow can have DemoPage record a demo for each new lead before the first call.

## Pick Arcade when

- You want a polished, on-brand video for a launch, an ad, or a social post
- Every viewer should get the same message
- What you're showing can't run in a web browser

## Pick DemoPage when

- You want your main demo button to run a walkthrough planned for each buyer
- Buyers ask about integrations, security, or pricing that one video can't cover
- You want the demo to show your product as it is today, without remaking anything
- You want each lead handed to your team with what they saw and asked

You can use both: Arcade for launch and social videos, and DemoPage behind your main demo button for buyers evaluating the product.

## Questions

**What is the difference between DemoPage and Arcade?**
Arcade makes AI-generated product videos, and interactive demos, that every viewer watches the same way. DemoPage runs your real product in a sandboxed browser, plans the walkthrough around what each visitor asks to see, and answers their questions from your approved pages.

**Does Arcade still make interactive demos?**
Yes. As of October 2026, Arcade's pricing page says it still supports interactive demos, sold separately from its AI video plans.

**Can we use Arcade and DemoPage together?**
Yes. Use Arcade videos in launches, release notes, and social posts, and DemoPage behind your primary demo button where prospects ask their own questions.

**How does DemoPage keep a live product demo fast?**
DemoPage starts the recorded walkthrough immediately so there is no blank wait, while a pre-warmed standby browser opens the live personalized walkthrough in seconds and completes a typical public website demo in 50 to 80 seconds.

**Does DemoPage charge per seat?**
DemoPage charges for counted live demos, never per seat: a live demo counts when a visitor stays three minutes or finishes, once per visitor per day. Free gives 10 live demos in your first 30 days, then 3 a month; Starter is $99 a month for 10, and Growth $799 a month for 100. Recordings and chat don't count.
