What is a Capture Clip?
A Capture Clip is a built-in feature within the ON24 Platform that lets webinar presenters pre-record a screen share or product demonstration in advance of a live session. The recording can then be presented during the event, allowing for a polished, reliable, and repeatable demo experience.
Capture Clips are particularly valuable for visual learners and attendees who benefit from seeing a tool or workflow in action. By removing the unpredictability of live demonstrations—such as technical errors or connection interruptions—marketers can maintain full control over how their product or message is presented. The result is a professional, seamless viewer experience that helps drive understanding and interest in the product.

- Enhances audience engagement: Visual demonstrations make complex tools or services easier to understand.
