replayinkRecorded like any video
Press record, use the site, press stop. Every click, typed value and dialog becomes a step.
Record your app. Send a demo people can click.
Not a video. A copy of your app that plays like one, until the viewer presses a button. Nothing for them to install. Free for Chrome and Edge.
Add to Chrome
Free. No account to record. Viewers need nothing.
Three real websites, each recorded once with the extension. They play by themselves; click anything and it is the page, as it was. Nothing here is a mock-up. About these recordings.
Sent like any video
One link on your clipboard the moment you press stop. It can be embedded in your docs too.
Except the buttons work
No extension, no account, nothing for viewers to install. You see how far each one got.
An interactive demo recorder, a web highlighter and team comments in one extension
Show how your app works, mark up any page or PDF, and talk about it with your team.
Interactive demos
Press record, use your app, send a link. The viewer clicks the real screens, in any order.
Web highlighter and pen
Highlight text on any website or PDF, with a pen, arrows, boxes and labels.
Sticky notes
Drop a note anywhere on the page. It stays where you put it.
Comments and @mentions
Pin a comment to a sentence and mention the person who knows.
Live pointers
See who is on the page, where they point and who is typing.
Notifications
A bell for mentions, replies and pages shared with you.
Share a page or a link
With one person, your whole team, or anyone holding the link.
PDFs too
The same highlighter, pen and notes on any PDF you open in Chrome.
Mark up any page with your team
A web highlighter with sticky notes and comments, live pointers and a bell for what is said to you. Five things you can do on any page, shown on one.
Notes on designing for interruption
Every serious piece of software is used by someone who is about to be interrupted. The meeting starts in four minutes, the child needs collecting, the deploy is still red.
What matters far more than speed is whether a thing can be put down and picked back up without having to reconstruct where you were. That takes a marker: a way to point at one sentence and say this one, the claim I do not believe.
Anchoring to a pixel position fails on the first reflow. Anchoring to an element fails the first time the framework re-renders. Anchoring to the text itself survives nearly everything short of the sentence being rewritten.
The measure of an interface is not how quickly a rested person can use it. It is how much of the work survives when they stop paying attention halfway through.
Three properties of resumable work
Work that survives interruption tends to share three properties. It is visible: the state of the thing is on the screen rather than in the person's head. It is durable: closing the tab does not throw the work away. And it is addressable: there is a way to point at a specific part of it, so a person can leave themselves a marker.
Given a way to mark things, people immediately want to sort what they marked. Colour costs nothing: you reach for the yellow one because it is the yellow one, and the meaning follows the habit.
The same is true of a team. A question pinned to the sentence it is about gets an answer. The same question in a chat window gets a reply that starts with "which part?".
Five things you can do on any page. Pick one, or watch them in order.
A working copy of what the extension puts on a page. Priya and Dan are scripted, and everything you do here stays in this tab.
Every note lands on the same page
Highlights, sticky notes, comments and pointers from everyone, kept where the conversation is about: on the page itself.
Collaborate on the same page, at the same time
Real-time collaboration on any web page or PDF: open a shared page while a teammate is on it and you watch each other work, the way you would in a shared document.
- See who has the page open right now
- Pointers with names, and who is typing in a thread
- Follow someone's view as they scroll
You choose who sees what
Your notes are private until you share them. Each way of sharing shows what the other person gets before it shares anything.
Private until you share
Annotating, PDFs, presenter mode, screenshots and recording all run on your computer. No telemetry, no usage counter, no advertising.
- Nothing is uploaded until you share a page or publish a recording
- No account needed to highlight, draw or take notes
- Your devices sync through your Chrome profile, never through us
