Free guide

From idea to live demo

Visualise your ideas with Claude, and share them with Roomi. A free guide to building a demo a client can click, and knowing what they did with it.

What’s inside

Everything from the first prompt to the follow-up call

Eight short chapters, in the order you will do them, with the prompts to copy and real screens from the product.

  • Prompts that build it

    What to decide before you ask, the first prompt to copy, and how to steer Claude one screen at a time.

  • Sample data that looks real

    How to make a demo look like your client’s world, with nothing private in it.

  • The five checks

    What to check before anyone sees it, and which checks the deploy runs for you.

  • Deploy it from Claude

    Say “deploy it to roomi” with the connector, or use the CLI. Nothing goes live until you say yes.

  • A tour, and a link per person

    A guided tour that pitches for you, and a private link for each person you send it to.

  • What they did, and when to call

    Each viewer’s journey, the pipeline, and how to open the call with what held them.

Who it’s for

For people who sell, not people who code

You have an idea, or something Claude built. Now it needs to be in front of a client, on a link, without waiting for anyone technical.

  • Sales teams

    Send the prospect the product working on their kind of data, instead of a deck about it.

  • Agencies

    Show a pitch as a working prototype, and see which screens the client went back to.

  • Consultants

    Turn a recommendation into something the client can click, and see who they passed it to.

  • Founders

    Put the idea in front of early customers before it is built for real, and hear what they say.

The chapters

Build it, then share it

Read them in order, or go straight to the one you need. Each one stands on its own.

  • 1. Build it with Claude

    Turn an idea into a working demo with Claude: what to decide first, real prompts to copy, and how to steer it one screen at a time.

    Read the chapter
  • 2. Make it look real

    Sample data that looks like your client’s world makes a demo land, and keeps anything private out of it. Prompts and rules for both.

    Read the chapter
  • 3. The five checks

    Five checks to run on a Claude-built demo before a client opens it: nothing real, every screen, the device, the tour, and a look as a viewer.

    Read the chapter
  • 4. Deploy it

    Put the demo online in a private room. Say “deploy it to roomi” to Claude with the connector, or use the CLI. Nothing goes live until you say yes.

    Read the chapter
  • 5. The guided tour

    A short guided tour walks each viewer through the demo when you are not there to do it. How to write one, with a worked example.

    Read the chapter
  • 6. One link per person

    Make a private link for each person you send the demo to, so the room greets them by name and you know exactly who did what.

    Read the chapter
  • 7. Read what they did

    See who opened the room, how far through the tour they got, what held them, what they said and what they chose next, person by person.

    Read the chapter
  • 8. Follow up

    Use what each viewer did to decide when to call and what to say: the pipeline, the evidence on each card, reminders and replies.

Questions

Questions people ask

Is the guide free?
Yes. Every chapter is on this site to read, and the designed PDF of the whole guide is free too. Leave your email and the download starts straight away.
Do I need to know how to code?
No. The guide is written for people who sell. Claude writes the code from your words, and Roomi puts it live from a sentence in the same chat.
Does my client need a Claude account?
No. A Roomi room opens in any browser, with nothing to sign up for. An artifact shared from Claude’s apps asks every viewer to sign in. A Claude Code public link does not, but its page describes no record of who opened it.
What does it cost to do what the guide describes?
You can build and deploy on Free. A private link per person and everything each viewer did come with Pro, at £4 a month before VAT.
