Why it matters

What Arcade Can't Do

Hands-on

Real interactivity, not a video on rails

Arcade demos are guided recordings - prospects watch, they don't do. Aceframe demos are fully interactive click-throughs where buyers explore at their own pace. Interactive demos convert 3-4x better than passive video because prospects learn by doing, not watching.

Save 40%

Save thousands per year without losing features

Arcade starts at $32/mo with no free option - you're paying before you know if it works. Aceframe gives you 15 demos free, then unlimited at $19/mo. For a 5-person team, that's over $780/year back in your budget for campaigns that actually drive pipeline.

AI

Know exactly which prospects are ready to buy

Aceframe tracks every click at the step level and uses AI intent scoring to surface your hottest leads. Arcade gives you basic view counts. The difference: you follow up with the right prospect at the right time instead of guessing.

Leads

Turn anonymous viewers into pipeline

Gate any step with email capture to convert demo viewers into leads. Combine that with step-level analytics and AI scoring, and every demo becomes a lead-gen machine. Arcade's lead capture exists but lacks the depth to tell you who's actually buying.

Why Aceframe

Key Advantages Over Arcade

Interactive Demos, Not Passive Videos

Arcade records guided videos and GIFs that prospects watch passively. Aceframe captures real click-through demos where buyers interact with your product at their own pace - exploring the features that matter to them, not the ones you scripted.

AI Intent Scoring on Every View

Aceframe tracks each click at the step level and uses AI to score viewer intent, so your sales team knows exactly who's ready for a call. Arcade offers basic analytics without the intelligence layer to separate tire-kickers from serious buyers.

Instant Loading with AVIF Compression

Every Aceframe step is compressed to roughly 80 KB using AVIF - no buffering, no spinners, no waiting. While Arcade loads video assets, your Aceframe demo is already running. Faster demos mean lower bounce rates and better Core Web Vitals.

4 Embed Modes for Every Touchpoint

Inline on your landing page, modal from a CTA button, side panel in your docs, popover on your pricing page. Aceframe gives you four distinct ways to place demos exactly where buyers make decisions. Arcade's embed options are more limited.

Agent-native

Your AI assistant can build these demos

Aceframe ships a hosted MCP server and a public API on every plan, including Free - where competitors gate theirs behind enterprise tiers, if they offer one at all. Connect your assistant once and demo creation stops being your job.

Record by asking

Describe the flow to your assistant. It captures the screens, sets the click points, writes the captions, and hands you a live share link.

Never ship a stale demo

Product UI changed? Ask your agent to re-record. Minutes instead of an afternoon of manual re-capture.

A demo for everything

Bulk-create a walkthrough per feature, per client, or per campaign. The API does not get bored.
