Instant Demo description
A quick and easy way to create demos and tutorials as Flash movies

Instant Demo will provide a quick and easy way to create demos and tutorials of your software in the popular Flash format!

Instant Demo is ideal for software demonstrations, customer support and training.

Instant Demo uses a simple design philosophy, providing an intuitive approach to the creation process. A single click of a button is all that is required to start recording.

Instant demo automatically captures any visual changes on your desktop, including mouse appearance and movement. This smart capture technology simplifies demo creation by removing the need to later edit your mouse activity.

Editing features include annotated text and interactive hotspots which can be added quickly and easily using a simple control panel.

Instant Demo automatically calculates the correct display time for your annotated text. Images can be imported using cut and paste, and Instant Demo can be easily integrated with your favourite imaging software - there is no need to learn another graphics program.

The demonstrations are created in the Flash format and are small in size, requiring only 100KB per minute of animation.

This makes Instant Demo ideal for eLearning and web based sales and product presentations.

Instant Demo can also create your tutorial as a single executable that is only 6KB larger than your movie, allowing easy attachment to emails for customer support.

A picture says a thousand words - an instant demo says a million!
