Chameleon vs Arcade FAQs

Interactive Demos help shift product adoption left, starting before a user even signs up. By letting people experience your product’s value firsthand, they build understanding and motivation earlier in the journey. This creates more qualified, confident signups and smoother in-product onboarding, ultimately driving faster and stronger adoption once users are inside.

Chameleon's demo creation software connects Interactive Demo engagement directly to product usage metrics. This means you can finally track which Interactive Demos drive real adoption, segment viewers for targeted follow-up, and measure the actual impact of your product education. It's the difference between counting views and driving outcomes.
Arcade is perfect for eye‑catching website demos. Chameleon does that and carries the story into your product:

- One recording → many assets. Auto‑generate announcement modals, Microsurveys, release note copy, help docs, and more.
- Target by intent. Trigger in‑app campaigns based on how someone interacted with the Demo.
- Measure real impact. Demo Goals tell you how many viewers go on to sign up, adopt a feature, or hit any custom milestone.
- All in one UI. Demos live alongside Checklists, Microsurveys, and other in-product patterns (no duct‑taping tools together!).

If you only need a splashy asset for the homepage, Arcade is great. If you care about activation and adoption, Chameleon is the keeper.
You’ll feel right at home with Chameleon’s core toolset: pan & zoom, blur, video trimming, and custom media upload.

Plus, if you narrate while you record, our AI turns your commentary into a polished Demo and auto‑generates launch assets like announcement modals, Microsurveys, emails, and help‑center snippets. All you have to do is review and publish!
You can insert an email‑capture step at any point in the Demo flow, making it easy to identify engaged prospects.

To get feedback on a prototype within your Demo, add Figma as an “Additional action” and let viewers leave comments in context.

For in‑product sentiment checks, you can trigger a Chameleon Microsurvey based on the viewer’s behavior during or after the Demo.
Chameleon’s Demo Goals link viewers to specific in‑product events (such as account creation or a particular feature activation) so you can prove adoption impact. Arcade’s Insights dashboard focuses on demo‑level engagement metrics such as plays, completion rate, and device mix, but it does not track downstream product actions.
Chameleon is a complete platform for in-product engagement. In addition to Interactive Demos, you can use Chameleon to create a variety of in-app experiences: guided product tours, onboarding checklists, tooltips, announcements, surveys, and more.

These experiences help you drive adoption and activation, all without relying on engineering time.
Sure! Demos can run completely standalone. If goal tracking, AI help, and in-app experiences aren’t on your radar, the free plan will do the trick.
Absolutely. Chameleon’s script runs alongside other DAPs without conflicts, so you can start with the free Demos plan while continuing to use your current platform for manually-created in‑app guides.
Nope! Some teams choose to keep a different demo provider like Arcade for their marketing demos while using Chameleon for Demos where driving feature adoption is a goal and tracking in-app usage is important.
The fastest approach is:

1. List your top‑performing demos (start with 3‑5).
2. Re‑record them in Chameleon (average rebuild time: less than 15 min each).
3. Match branding with Themes, then retire the old embeds at your own pace.

Pro tip: reuse your old hotspot copy as a voice‑over script so AI adds the copy for you.
Chameleon offers unlimited seats and unlimited published Demos, whereas Arcade limits you to one seat and three demos. Chameleon also includes pan‑and‑zoom, blur, and video editing, all of which are unavailable in Arcade’s free tier.
