live demo
Unrecorded product presentation
A live demo is a demonstration performed in real time rather than shown as a recording or simulation.
Software developers give live demos of new features, salespeople demo products for potential customers, and presenters showcase capabilities on stage.
The format carries inherent risk—things can go wrong in ways that prerecorded material avoids: The live demo crashed right when the investors walked in.
