Rehearse your demo path against every deploy and keep a fresh backup recording
A broken demo in front of investors, customers, or developer audiences can cost a deal or a talk. Founders and DevRel teams usually have no fresh backup if the live demo fails.
Understudy runs your demo path after every deploy and keeps a current backup recording ready.
- 1Define the demo path you want to rehearse.
- 2Understudy runs that path automatically after every deploy.
- 3Check alerts and use the latest backup recording if needed.
