# Interactive demos for help centers and product docs

Embed click-through walkthroughs in help articles and docs so users see exactly how to do something, and keep them current by editing captured HTML instead of retaking screenshots.

## The problem

For support, documentation and technical writing teams. Screenshots in docs go stale with every release, and long written steps are hard to follow.

## How it works with ArcDemo

1. **Capture the task.** Record the task in the browser; each click becomes a step with a tooltip you can edit.
2. **Embed it in the article.** Drop the demo into your help center or docs with an embed. It adapts to the page width.
3. **Keep it current.** With HTML capture you can update text and labels after a release without capturing again, and version history lets you roll back.

## Features this team uses most

## Questions

### Why use interactive demos in help docs?

They show the exact clicks in context, which answers 'where is that button?' questions that screenshots and paragraphs leave open.
