Everything you need to share workearly and understand what happened next.
DemoTape makes your local app instantly shareable, records every session, and shows exactly what broke without turning feedback into a staging workflow.
Everything you need
Zero-config sharing
DemoTape finds what you are already running locally, routes the pieces together, and gives you a usable share link without extra setup.
- ✓Detects your running app automatically
- ✓Routes frontend, API, and WebSocket traffic together
- ✓No Docker, AWS, Vercel, or staging environment required
- ✓Works across frameworks like Next.js, Vite, Rails, and Django
Share it the moment the change is worth reacting to.
See the docker-compose example — multi-service apps work without manual routing →
Let someone try your changes instantly
Share your local app without deploying it. DemoTape keeps the feedback loop short when the change is ready for someone else to react to.
- ✓Works for client reviews, internal feedback, and PRs
- ✓Send one link instead of screenshots or setup notes
- ✓Keep feedback attached to the real running app
Iterate live
Update your app locally while someone is using it and keep the same link active.
- ✓No redeploys
- ✓No refresh needed
- ✓Works during live sessions
Try the hot-reload example — update the app while someone is browsing →
See how your app behaves in real use
Replay the real session: every click, scroll, route change, hesitation, and dead end.
- ✓Replay sessions at the visitor's actual screen size
- ✓Watch live while they browse or replay later
- ✓No more “what did you click?”
Try the client-demo example — share a dashboard with a client and replay their session →
Debug in context
KeyWhen someone says “something is off,” you can see the exact console errors, network requests, and responses from their session instead of reconstructing it from memory.
- ✓Inspect request and response payloads from the session
- ✓Trace errors back to the exact route and click sequence
- ✓Fix small issues immediately and ask for a retry
- ✓Understand what broke on their machine instantly
Try the debugging-failures example — replay flaky bugs, race conditions, and 500 errors →
Immediate feedback, not delayed guesswork
See how your app behaves in real use instead of waiting for screenshots, async messages, or vague bug reports.
- ✓Watch live while someone browses
- ✓Replay the full session later
- ✓Keep comments attached to the exact moment they happened

Built for real feedback
People can try the product on their own time and still leave feedback with enough context to act on.
- ✓Leave comments tied to exact moments
- ✓No login or install for the visitor
- ✓Debug mobile issues without touching their device
- ✓Sessions replay at the actual screen size, including mobile
See the auth-flow and cookie-session examples — login flows work through the proxy →
Pinned comments
Feedback stays attached to the exact moment it happened.
The card field never becomes editable after I choose Pro.
Menu covers the CTA on iPhone SE, but only after scrolling back up.
Control access
Protect shared links with a password.
- ✓No accounts required
- ✓Enter once and start browsing
- ✓Keep client work private without adding friction
Use Cases
One product, multiple fast feedback loops
PR reviews
Let reviewers try your changes instead of imagining the behavior from the diff.
Bug reports
Capture what actually happened instead of chasing a written reproduction.
Feedback sessions
Send a link, watch the replay, and see where the product is unclear.
Demos
Let people use the app on their own time instead of relying on a walkthrough video.
