Our verdict

Arcade is quick to learn. You click through your product with the Chrome extension or desktop app, and each click becomes a step with a hotspot, while scrolling and typing are kept as video. You can add a camera bubble, AI copy and an AI voiceover, then share a link or embed it.

The free plan is a trial in practice. It publishes one demo and one video, with an Arcade watermark and no insights. Growth costs $510 per seat a year and adds branching, insights, exports and your own branding. Since May 2026, HTML capture is only on Enterprise.

If you need HTML capture without an Enterprise contract, check what Supademo, Storylane and Navattic include. For written step-by-step guides, look at Scribe or Tango. For quick video messages, Loom is built for that job.
