The Storylane Alternative That Hands You a Finished Video
Storylane is known for clickable, interactive product tours. Flowcase is built for one thing: a finished MP4 you can drop into a launch, an ad, or a sales email.
Teams often reach for an interactive demo tool when they want a guided sandbox that viewers click through inside the browser. That format works well for self-serve product tours and embedded walkthroughs. But a lot of the time you do not need a clickable replica. You need a video.
Flowcase takes a different path. You point it at your app's URL, describe the flow in plain English or hand it exact scripted steps, and it renders a polished demo video in the cloud. No editor to wrestle, no replica to maintain, no embed to babysit. Just a clean MP4, up to 4K, ready to ship.
A finished file, not an embed
Flowcase hands you a polished MP4 that plays in ads, landing pages, emails, and decks, anywhere video works.
Auto-zoom and eased motion
The camera leans into every click and field while the cursor glides smoothly, so attention always lands where it should.
Plain English or exact steps
Describe the goal and let the AI agent drive, or script each click and keystroke yourself for full control.
Records behind your login
Save a session once and Flowcase captures your real authenticated screens without ever seeing your password.
How Flowcase turns a flow into a video
Give Flowcase a URL and a goal. The AI agent plans the clicks and typing, then captures a clean run of your app. If you would rather direct every move, write exact scripted steps instead: click this, type that, confirm the result. Both paths feed the same renderer.
A director pass groups the raw clicks into paced, named scenes, complete with timing and importance, like an editor laying out a timeline. Auto-zoom eases the camera into each click and field, then back out, so viewers always look where it matters. The cursor glides with smooth, eased motion, and captions are generated automatically. The output is a finished MP4.
When a video beats an interactive demo
Interactive tours live inside the browser and ask the viewer to click. That is great for hands-on exploration. It is less useful when you need something to autoplay on a landing page, run inside a paid ad, sit in a launch post, or attach to a cold email. Those channels want video.
If your main goal is a self-serve, clickable sandbox embedded in your site, an interactive tour tool like Storylane may be the better fit, and we would say so. If your goal is a watchable, shareable demo that plays anywhere a video plays, that is exactly what Flowcase produces.
Record real, authenticated screens
Most real demos happen behind a login. Save a login session once on the Connections page, and Flowcase records as your account without ever seeing your password. The video shows your actual dashboard with real data, not a stripped-down public view.
Because capture and rendering both run in the cloud, there is no local app to install and nothing to set up on your machine. Kick off a render and come back to a finished file.
Straightforward, second-based pricing
Flowcase pricing is built around rendered seconds, not seats. Free gives you 3 minutes of rendered demo every month at 1080p with a watermark. Starter is $15/mo for 600 seconds at 1080p with no watermark. Pro is $39/mo for 3000 seconds at 1440p with AI agent demos and priority rendering. Scale is $99/mo for 12000 seconds at 4K with API access.
Paid plans bill pay-as-you-go per second over your monthly pool, so a busy launch month never blocks you and a quiet one never wastes budget.
