Pretty cool. I showed it to my daughter and she created a chic stylist game with it after playing around with a few of the ones in the app. You should showcase some girl-focused content as well as they make up a meaningful percent of gamers.
Create a script for a product demo or tutorial for your app using an extension. The script is used to generate your product content in multiple formats (narrated video, interactive demo, looping animation, and in-app guide). Whenever your product changes, just update the script and regenerate everything. No manual re-recording of video, syncing of audio, or any other post-production steps.
Yes! We will be publishing an article soon on how to use it alongside your existing support chat widget (ZenDesk, Intercom, LiveAgent, etc.) to view your customers' screens, so you can troubleshoot and resolve their issues more quickly--all from your website.
At Screenleap, we’ve been providing quick-and-easy screen sharing and online meetings since we launched as a Show HN on Hacker News 10 years ago! https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3539792
Today we’re excited to share what we’ve been building:
Screenleap for Websites allows you to easily add our installation-free screen sharing and online meetings functionality to your website by adding a snippet of code. To configure your integration, you simply toggle some settings on the Screenleap site - no programming is required. It’s like adding a chat widget to your website, but instead of live chat, you get Google Meet-like functionality integrated right into your website.
Once you have added the code snippet and configured your integration, you can enable all sorts of new interactions with your users directly from your website. For example, you can 1) provide your customers with the ability to jump into richer real-time support experiences with screen sharing, live video, audio, and chat, 2) allow your users to video chat with each other live, 3) funnel website prospects into live sales demos and conversations and automatically redirect them to a lead-generation form afterwards, 4) host online classes directly from your own website, and more.
The demo integration requires you to manually send a link to the users you want to interact with, but if you sign up for your own integration, you’ll also have the option to 1) have all the users at a specific URL automatically join your session or 2) select which users you want to join your session.
We rebuilt the Gmail integration portion of our Screenleap extension using InboxSDK and reduced the size of our implementation from a bunch of files to 120 lines of code (the InboxSDK integration portion is only 10 lines). Would've saved a month of work if this was available the first time around!
Besides not having to keep up with breaking changes in Gmail, another really nice benefit of using InboxSDK is that you don't have to keep updating your extension to make sure that it plays nice with other extensions. This was an unexpected and on-going source of development work for us previously.
Looking forward to the Google Calendar integration :)
This is great. I'm actually in the process of buying a used car now and it's nearly impossible to get an appointment at a garage in SF in a timely manner.
* On the browse page, you should remove the ninja after the person's expertise. It makes it easier for the expertise to stand out when scanning the experts.
* It wasn't immediately obvious to me that the green circle meant that the ninja was available now--maybe something more obvious if you want people to start a session in an ad hoc fashion vs scheduling a future session.
* It might be useful to show the people an onboarding page with the type of help you could get from these ninjas.
The main benefit of Screenleap over a Google Hangout is that the people you are sharing your screen with don't have to install any software in order to view your screen. All they need is a web browser.
The average Internet user spends 2.5 hours per day on email and most Screenleap users send links as their primary means of notifying viewers. We believe the Gmail browser extension makes it even more convenient to share your screen because we can auto-populate your emails or chat conversations with the share link so you don't have to copy-and-paste it yourself.
Thanks for the feedback. The page serves the dual role of being both the information and installation page. For Firefox and Safari, it does ask if you want to install it when you first view the page. We did it to remove an installation step but I see where you would want learn more about the extension before deciding whether or not to install it. We'll try to split the page in two.
We would love to support IE, but the development time for an IE managed extension is just too high for us right now. If anyone has expertise in porting extensions to IE, please get in touch with us!
