Why async demos work
Prospects are busy and live demos are hard to schedule. A personal screen recording lets you make your case on their time: you show the product solving their problem, they replay it whenever they want, and they forward it to the people who actually sign off. You get the reach of a mass email with the warmth of a one-to-one call.
How reps use Opivv
- Open the prospect’s use case in the product and record a focused walkthrough. Name them in the first line.
- Send the link in your outreach or follow-up email; it’s copied the moment you stop.
- Watch the views. When someone re-watches, that’s your signal to reach out: strike while it’s warm.
When a prospect has a question, it doesn’t have to bounce back into your inbox. They can leave a timestamped comment on the demo (pinned to the exact moment they’re curious about) or reply with their own screen recording. The back-and-forth stays on the video where the context is, and you answer with another quick clip instead of a wall of text.

Frequently asked
Can I see who watched my demo video?
Yes. Every shared clip tracks views, so you can tell which prospects opened the demo and which re-watched it, and prioritize your follow-ups accordingly.
How do I personalize a demo at scale?
Record the screen showing the prospect’s use case, mention them by name in the intro, and send the link. It feels one-to-one but takes a couple of minutes. No live call to schedule.
Can I use a custom branded link?
On Pro you can set a custom URL slug and password-protect or expire links, so outbound demos look polished and stay controlled.
