What it does

DemoScope is a mobile screen recorder for iOS and Android that captures what happens on a phone screen along with a live video of the user's face. The app overlays touch indicators to show every tap, swipe, and gesture. It includes a built-in teleprompter, supports streaming directly to Twitch, YouTube, Facebook, and custom RTMP servers, and can record from web browsers, videos, or photos as sources.

Who it is for

The app targets several groups: startup founders and product teams preparing investor pitches or product launches; streamers and live content creators covering mobile web games or reactions; content creators and educators making tutorials for YouTube, TikTok, or online courses; and anyone demoing a mobile web product to users or customers.

Pricing

The site does not show prices. A free download is mentioned.

How it stands out

DemoScope is explicitly positioned as a mobile-first alternative to Loom. It runs natively on phones rather than requiring screen recording from a desktop or separate device. The combination of face cam overlay, customizable touch indicators (6 colors, adjustable sizes), and direct streaming to major platforms appears tailored for live demos and educational content. The app includes specific templates for use cases like Product Hunt launches and investor pitch videos. Support for multiple source types—web browser, video playback, photo slideshows—expands what creators can demonstrate beyond just app demos.

What a founder should check

A builder entering this space should verify three things. First, how quickly can Loom ship a native mobile recording experience, and does Loom's brand advantage in the broader recording market (desktop, web, etc.) matter more than mobile specialization? Second, what are the switching costs for creators who already have Loom workflows—do the mobile-specific features justify learning a new tool, or is the convenience gap closing? Third, investigate whether streaming infrastructure and platform integrations are defensible or commoditized; if streaming to Twitch and YouTube becomes standard, the moat shrinks to UI and touch indicator polish.
