Use case · Docs embeds
Embedded demos that re-render with your UI
Drop a CaptureBeam embed where each docs screenshot would go. The embed re-renders against the live UI on schedule. Your docs site never lies, and the screenshots become motion-graphics product proof.
Who this is for
Technical writers, DevRel
Documentation screenshots are stale the moment you ship. Updating them across hundreds of pages is a sprint nobody owns. The compromise — leave the screenshots stale and add a 'this might have changed' disclaimer — erodes trust on every page.
The problem
Documentation screenshots are out of date the moment you ship. Updating them across hundreds of pages is a sprint nobody has time for.
