Share a Replit app
You built it with Replit. Now show a client, and see what they did.

The Roomi way, from your Replit app’s code
Six commands, run by you or by your coding agent. Nothing goes live until you commit.
- Step one
Describe the demo, then rehearse it
Work in a folder holding your Replit app’s code, on your own computer. A live app demo runs on Node 24 only, so an app with a Python server, such as Streamlit or Flask, can’t run live. The CLI’s first command describes the demo and leaves a guide written for your coding agent, so Claude Code or Cursor can run the rest. Deploy rehearses: it builds, checks for secrets and shows what would go live. Nothing has left your computer.
- Step two
Put it live
Deploy again with commit, and the room is live. A new build can go to a preview first, for you to check before any viewer sees it. If a change goes wrong, roll back to the last good build. Each build keeps its log, for when one fails.
- Step three
Make a link for each person
On Pro, make a private link for each client, with their name on it. Send it yourself, by email or however you usually reach them. Roomi sends nothing. When you send it, tell them who you are and that Roomi records what they do in the room for you. Our terms ask you to.
- Step four
See who looked, and what held them
Each person’s visits in order, the screens they stayed on, how far they took the tour, and who they passed it to.
- Step five
Follow up while they’re still thinking about you
Each viewer answers “What happens next?”: a meeting, a yes, later, a colleague, a question, or not for them. Roomi ranks who to call first. Ask your own Claude to draft a follow-up from what they did. Nothing is sent until you send it.

Ways to share a Replit app with a client, ranked
Ranked for one job: a client trying the real thing, and you knowing what they did. Roomi is ours.
- Roomi (ours) — your own build, running, at a private link for each person, with nothing to sign up for. You see every visit, click and minute, by name.
- Replit’s published app — A published Replit app runs on Replit’s cloud, where everyone can use it. Controlling who can see it is available only to Pro and Enterprise members.
- A screen recording — easy to send, but they watch you use it rather than try it. Loom names a viewer only when they watch while logged in to Loom. Anyone else shows as an anonymous view.
- Screenshots in a deck — no setup at all, and nothing to click. A deck tells you, at best, that it was opened.
Questions
- Who can open my published Replit app?
- A published Replit app runs on Replit’s cloud, where everyone can use it. Controlling who can see it is available only to Pro and Enterprise members. A Roomi link opens for the one person it was made for.
- Will my Python app run live on Roomi?
- No. A live app demo on Roomi runs on Node 24 only, so an app with a Python server, such as Streamlit or Flask, can’t run as a live demo. An app that builds to static files can.
- Does Replit show me who visited?
- Replit’s publishing includes web analytics that track visitor data and other metrics for a published app. Roomi shows each person by name: every visit, click and minute.
- Does my client need a Roomi account?
- No. Their link takes them straight into the room, with nothing to sign up for. The link is their key, and it carries their name.
- What does Roomi cost?
- Free costs nothing: static demos, listed on the community at one public address, with total views. A private link per person and everything each person did start on Pro, at £4 a month or £40 a year, before VAT.
- Do I have to tell a client their visit is recorded?
- Yes. Before or when you send the link, tell each viewer who you are and how to reach you about their data. Tell them too that Roomi records what they do in the room and shows it to you. Our terms ask for both.

Fair, and dated
Every claim about another product on this page is from that product’s own pages, each read on the day beside it, the oldest on 12 October 2026. Roomi is ours, and says so. If something here is out of date, tell us and we’ll fix it the same week.

Guides that go further into the same question.
- How do you share a Replit app with someone who isn’t on Replit?: Replit’s private apps ask every visitor to sign in, and a password works without an account. When each fits a client, and when a room with their own link does.
- How do you host an app you built with Claude Code?: Claude Code builds the app on your machine. Where to host it for free, what each host allows, and how to send it to a client on a private link instead.
- How do you swap real data for mock data in a demo built with AI?: Four ways to give an AI-built demo its own data, and how to ask your AI agent for each. Make it look like the client’s world, with nothing real in it.
Give each client a link of their own
Put your Replit app in a room, send it, and see who leaned in.
