How to Create Videos with Donobu in 3 Simple StepsStep 1: Install and Launch Donobu

Step 1: Install and Launch Donobu

Start by installing Donobu from www.donobu.com. Once installed, launch the desktop app and you’re ready to begin. There's no complex setup or configurations—just straightforward access right from the start.

Step 2: Create Your Flow with Simple Prompts
  1. Start a New Flow: Click "Create New Flow" from the dashboard to begin building your video. Choose the device you want to use for recording the flow, such as Desktop browser, iPhone, or Pixel.
  2. Add Actions with Prompts: Donobu’s prompt-based system simplifies flow creation. Just type in what you want to happen. For example:
    • URL: https://trello.com
    • Objective: Sign up and complete onboarding
    • Prompt:
      • Use a random email of the type jon@example.com
      • Accept cookies if asked
      • Choose personal todos
      • Make up data to create demo board for an environmental non-profit
      • Skip inviting teammates or signing up for paid access
      • Make sure demo has been created
  3. Use Flowpilot for Smarter Navigation: Click "Submit" and let Donobu's Flowpilot take over, automatically navigating through the flow to achieve your goal. Flowpilot’s real-time visual execution ensures everything looks just right without manual intervention.
Step 3: Export Effortlessly
  1. View Video: Review the recorded video on the first card to ensure everything looks good.
  2. Export and Share: Click the first card to access more options. Use the "Open Folder" icon on the bottom left to view all the images and videos of the flow. The recorded video will be a webm file, ready for you to copy and share.
Optional Step: Test and Refine
  1. Rerun flow: Click the "Rerun" button on the first card of your flow to rerun it. Reruns are efficient and do not consume any LLM tokens. This ensures your videos remain clean and up-to-date.
  2. Adjust as Needed: Fine-tune any steps instantly if needed — no re-recording required. Just click recreate and update the prompt to redo the flow autonomously again.

  • Fast and Efficient: With Donobu, you can set up, record, and export videos in minutes, keeping pace with fast development cycles.
