For product

Every feature ships explained, and stays that way.

You ship weekly and nobody owns docs full time. Stagewright keeps each feature's video, help article and walkthrough current with the code, and shows where customers stop.

See which features are explained

Stagewright maps features from your repository and lines each one up with its walkthroughs, help-center articles, usage and support conversations. A feature customers ask about and nothing explains shows up as a gap, and a walkthrough can be drafted from the feature's code and its top support question.

  • Drafts say what they were written from, and stay drafts until someone approves them.
  • Articles already in Intercom, Zendesk or Productlane are read back in and marked fresh, stale, failing or not checked.

Articles are read back in and checked against the product, not only pushed out. Sample project, example data.

Nothing goes stale silently

Every walkthrough runs on every pull request it can be affected by. An intended UI change waits for approval in the PR; a broken flow is filed before it reaches customers. The approval is the gate to publishing, so what customers see is always a version someone signed off.

Where customers stop

Drop-off is counted by the second and lined up with the narration, so you can rewrite the sentence people leave on. Comparisons with people who didn't watch always say who they were compared with, with a holdout when you want to confirm the effect.
