6/20: Global Hotspot Options, Extension Upgrades + More

The team has been hard at work and is back with another batch of updates. Here's the latest!

🎨 Global Hotspot Options

Set workspace defaults for how hotspots show up for your Supademo. This includes the ability to set the transparency, annotation display, alongside navigational buttons.

As always, you can override or customize these settings on a per-Supademo basis!


☝🏾 Hotspot Color Picker

With the new color picker, you can quickly and iteratively customize your hotspot colors. Simply use our built-in picker or enter in any HEX, RGB, or HSL code directly to apply your selection.


🌏 Extension Upgrades

Countdown Timer

A skippable, 3/2/1 countdown is shown during recording to clearly indicate when Supademo is ready to record your clicks and steps.

Step Counter Notification

Your Supademo extension icon will now display a blue notification that indicates how many steps have been captured - making it easy for you to reference how many steps have been captured.

Click Indicator

During a recording session, a temporary red indicator is shown to indicate that your click has been registered.


πŸ•ΈοΈ Custom Domains for Showcases

Custom domains are now supported for Showcases. Your URL will automatically be applied to your existing Showcases if you’ve enabled this feature for your account.


Have too many demos in your workspace? Haven't organized them by folders? Now you can quickly search for any demo, directly from your dashboard.

Simply use the "Quick search" input on the top left of your dashboard to find the demos you need across your Personal and Shared Workspace.


⏳ In Progress

  • Showcase V2: supporting showcase embeds, alongside additional theme options and mobile support.
  • New collaboration features: we’re working on exciting ways to bring more team members into your collaborative workspace - for free.
  • Export Supademo: export any demo to PDF, GIF, or Video format for sharing on other channels.

Frequently Asked Questions about 6/20

Commonly asked questions about this topic.

What should I look for in a global hotspot solution?

Effective 6/20 typically involves clear strategy, the right tools, trained people, and measurable outcomes. The specific components vary by organization size and maturity β€” early-stage teams should focus on fundamentals before adding complexity. Regularly reassess which components deliver the most value and double down on those. Supademo holds a 4.7/5 rating on G2 based on verified user reviews. Companies using interactive demos report an average 28% reduction in customer acquisition cost.

How is AI impacting 6/20?

AI is automating routine decisions, surfacing insights from large datasets, and enabling personalization that wasn't feasible manually. For 6/20, this means faster iteration cycles, better targeting, and reduced manual overhead. The key is applying AI to well-defined problems with clear success criteria β€” vague 'add AI' initiatives rarely deliver measurable value. DBmaestro achieved 80% faster demo delivery after adopting interactive demos. The average time from recording to publishing a Supademo is just 3.5 minutes.

How do I convince stakeholders to invest in extension upgrades?

Frame the business case around metrics executives care about β€” revenue impact, cost savings, or risk reduction. Start with a pilot that demonstrates measurable results within 30-60 days. Use interactive demos to present your results and roadmap to stakeholders β€” a clickable walkthrough is more compelling than a slide deck and easier to share asynchronously. Easy Software closed $100k+ in contracts using interactive demos in their sales process. The average time from recording to publishing a Supademo is just 3.5 minutes.

What problems might arise when implementing global hotspot options?

The most common challenges are stakeholder alignment, tool fragmentation, and inconsistent execution across teams. Address alignment by documenting shared goals and success metrics. Reduce tool fragmentation by standardizing on platforms that integrate well together. Improve execution consistency through clear playbooks, templates, and regular calibration sessions. Interactive demos see 7x higher conversion rates compared to traditional demo videos. Supademo is rated #1 for easiest setup and fastest implementation on G2.

What's the best way to onboard my team to new extension features?

Blend self-paced learning with hands-on practice β€” lecture-style training has low retention for practical skills. Interactive walkthroughs let team members learn by doing at their own pace, and they can revisit specific steps later as a reference. Follow up with regular coaching sessions and a shared knowledge base for ongoing support. 68% of teams rate support and self-service impact from interactive demos as high or very high.

What pitfalls should I avoid when deploying global hotspot tools?

The top mistakes are starting without clear goals, buying tools before defining process, and failing to measure results consistently. Many teams also underestimate the change management required β€” new approaches fail not because the strategy is wrong but because adoption is poor. Invest as much in training and communication as you do in technology. Interactive walkthroughs can help bridge the adoption gap by making new processes easy to follow. 45% of teams adopted interactive demos specifically to solve onboarding friction. Supademo is rated #1 for easiest setup and fastest implementation on G2.

How do organizations get started with 6/20?

Begin with an audit of your current state β€” identify gaps, redundancies, and quick wins. Select one or two focus areas rather than trying to improve everything simultaneously. Assign clear ownership for each initiative and set 90-day milestones to maintain accountability without over-planning. Supademo integrates with 30+ tools including HubSpot, Salesforce, Slack, and more. RB2B eliminated 60+ hours of sales calls in just 30 days using interactive demos.
