About mado

mado turns a web app captured with its Chrome extension, or screenshots of any app — mobile, desktop software, terminal — into an interactive demo. It renders correctly on every screen, and it's shareable, embeddable and measurable.

Most interactive-demo tools capture a browser DOM. That works until the product isn't a website: a native app, a desktop tool, a terminal, an IDE. mado works from pictures of the screen instead. For web apps, the mado capture extension for Chrome takes a screenshot at every click with the exact box of the element clicked, and reads page outlines when it scans an app to learn it. For any other app, you upload screenshots in order. Screen recordings are in beta: you upload one and place the steps yourself. The hard part is making those screens feel correct on a phone, not just “responsive-ish.”

We aren't building a moat. We win on execution, honest pricing, shipping speed, and an embed that compounds every time someone tries the product through it.

mado is Japanese for “window”. A demo is a window into a product: a real moment of it, kept intact and passed around. The mark is three stacked windows — olive, gold, rust. A published version never changes — versions are immutable.
