Clips are the easiest way to capture video and screen recordings of usability tasks without running live, moderated research sessions. Now you can bring human context to Maze metrics with short, digestible recordings you can watch on your own time.
Hey Product Hunt Community! 👋 Jonathan, co-founder of Maze here.
Some of you might already know what the Product team at Maze has been up to over the past few months, but I’m super proud today to make it official. Say hello to Clips! 🎬🎉
🎬 What are Clips?
Clips are the easiest way to capture video and screen recordings of your participant’s usability tasks without running live, moderated research sessions.
💪 How do I use Clips?
It’s simple—in your maze, you can add Clips to Mission Blocks to allow individual user sessions to record. Clips will create small, digestible chunks of audio and visual context to help you get the full picture of how testers navigate through your product. Deepening insights that help you make fast, educated decisions—at scale.
We hope Clips will bring more human context to usability testing and fill the gaps of our understanding for users. All without losing speed and the ability to scale. So, if your team is looking to scale research thoughtfully, without sacrificing speed and that special human touch, give Clips a go and let us know what you think in the comments below.
Happy Wednesday—and happy recording!
Very proud of our Maze team's work, a real product-chef's-kiss! 👌
A little background on the feature 💭
Product teams rely on contextual feedback that's collected when conducting moderated research. Where the library of opinions, expressions, and thoughts brings context to strategic decisions as well as quick wins. With this in mind, we believe the valuable interactions happening during a remote test shouldn’t be lost simply because a user session happens async.
So we posed the question, is there a way to bring rich, human context that’s digestible to unmoderated research?
That’s why we’ve created a new way to capture the insights where understanding is essential.
Our amazing team has pooled together to bring you Clips; small, digestible clips of audio and visual context of user sessions that will help you get the full picture of how testers navigate through your product. Deepening insights that help you make fast, educated decisions—at scale.
This work was wild to see come together. Enormous congrats to the team for bringing it home with Clips. 🎉 I can't wait to see what this unlocks for teams!
@valentin_haarscher Thanks Valentin!
Sure thing! Fullstory records user sessions on live websites only, and actually only provides screen recordings.
Clips enables your product team to record audio, video, and screen recordings of your user's sessions on your prototypes. This helps bring data/insights into your validation phase of design and test iterations before you push them live! We integrate with major design tools Figma, AdobeXD, InVision, Sketch, & Marvel, to easily test your prototypes.
This version of Clips is just the beginning and we're already looking into new functionality we can introduce. What would be highest priority for you?
