Give your AI agent a product flow to record. Slideshot drives your web app through MCP, captures the walkthrough, and returns a polished demo video and GIF with zooms, cursor motion, and custom intro animation. No manual recording or editing.
congrats on the launch @geek_1001 Is the editing of video is ai driven or need manual intervention
Product demo videos are the one thing I keep putting off. Recording, editing, re-recording when the UI changes... it never ends. Having an AI agent handle this would remove a real bottleneck. Question: can it handle multi-step flows? Like "user signs up → connects YouTube → sees their first dashboard"? That kind of walkthrough is what I need for my landing page but I've been too lazy to produce manually.
Do teams ever push back wanting truer pacing for onboarding or sales videos? Or it it more like everyone just wants the cleaned-up version? Congrats on a well-executed product
This is a strong wedge. One place I’d watch is narrative intent: if the agent records exactly the flow you ask for, the demo can still miss the “why this matters” moment.
It would be useful to attach a tiny script/storyboard to each recording: audience, promise, steps to emphasize, parts to skip, CTA. Then the agent isn’t just capturing UI motion; it’s preserving the GTM/story context around the feature as the product changes.
Using MCP to let an agent drive the app rather than relying on brittle scripted shortcuts is clever. It's a guarantee that demos stay reproducible when the product UI shifts. How does it handle apps that need auth flows or complex stateful setups before the walkthrough can begin?
Okay this is actually so cool — the fact that it drives your app by itself and just hands you back a finished demo video is wild to me. I'm always putting off recording demos because it takes forever to get right, and this just… does it for you. Really curious how it handles things like popups or slow loading screens though. Definitely upvoting this one.
this would've saved me so many hours. recording product demos manually and then adding zoom effects and cursor animations in post is the most tedious part of marketing. does it handle multi-step flows where you need to show different pages or is it single page only
Excited to launch Slideshot on Product Hunt today!
Huge thanks to @fmerian for hunting! As always, extremely appreciate your support 🙏
I built Slideshot from a simple realization. AI agents made it so much faster to ship features. At the same time, I felt the speed of how fast you can market these new features is lacking behind. Especially when it comes to video demo preparation. I'd need to manually walk through the flow, record it, then edit it, adding some nice zoom effects, then generate a GIF. It takes a while...
Slideshot is my attempt to make that workflow "agentic".
Instead of opening another screen recorder, you connect Slideshot to the agent you already use through MCP. It supports Claude, Codex, Cursor, ChatGPT, or any other MCP-capable agent. Then you describe the product flow you want to show.
The agent drives the browser, walks through your web app autonomously, records the demo, and Slideshot returns a polished video with built-in zoom effects, cursor motion, and an intro animation.
✻ Product teams keep demo assets up to date as the product changes. Think of a Help Centre that automatically shows how a video of the feature works in the latest version.
✻ Customer success and support teams creating walkthroughs for help docs and customer education
What I’m most interested in is whether demo creation can become part of the same AI-assisted workflow as product building itself.
If an agent can help ship the feature, it should also be able to help market that feature.
It's is still early, so I’d love feedback from teams that regularly need product demos but do not want to spend time recording and editing them by hand.

Because I'm building Slidehsot as an agent-first tool, the pricing model is also different. Usually, video recording/editing tools charge a monthly subscription per seat. For Slidehsot, I opted for usage-based pricing. You only pay for the videos you generate.
For Product Hunt, the first 25 people who use the PH21SLIDE code at checkout will also receive $5 worth of credits for free.
