Why the difference matters

Look past the feature checklist

More checkmarks doesn't mean a better fit. Here's what actually matters.

Watching a demo vs using one

A buyer who drives the product themselves and gets an answer is closer to sold than one who watched a recording.

Variables vs real personalization

Filling in a first name is not the same as a demo that changes course because of what the buyer just said.

Drop-off data vs buyer intent

Step analytics show where someone stopped. A conversation shows what they actually wanted.

How Inkly works

What happens when the buyer has a question

No authored story playing back on its own, just one live session that answers as the buyer explores.

FAQ

Compare Inkly with Arcade

Arcade turns a capture into a branching demo or an AI video that plays back the same script for everyone. Inkly runs a live product the visitor drives, with an agent that answers in the moment.

When buyers should use a real product instead of watching a recording, ask questions during the demo, and get a walkthrough shaped around their own role and goals.

On higher plans, Arcade's HTML capture reproduces the actual UI at higher fidelity than a screen recording, and viewers can click the authored hotspots and branches. It is still a captured sequence, with no live product behind it.

When you need a polished demo or product video published in minutes, or when one capture has to serve campaigns, launches, enablement, and help docs.

Arcade's AI-generated videos are a genuinely useful format for feature announcements and social content, but a video is watched, not used. That is a different job than a demo a buyer drives themselves.

A brief on what the visitor asked, the workflows they explored, and where their interest spiked, so the next sales conversation starts informed.
