# Demo Prep
The user is about to present their project at a hackathon or demo day. Help them create a polished, timed demo script that tells a compelling story.
## Step 1: Gather Context
Ask the user:
- What does your app do? (one sentence)
- Who is it for?
- What is the single most impressive thing it does?
- How long is your presentation slot? (default: 3 minutes)
- Will you do a live demo, recorded video, or slides?
## Step 2: Write the Demo Script

- One sentence describing the pain point
- One concrete example or statistic that makes it real

- Highlight the "wow moment" (the single most impressive feature)
- Keep clicks to a minimum; narrate what is happening
### Act 3: The Impact (30 seconds)
- What changes because this exists?
- One metric, testimonial, or future vision
- Clear closing statement
## Step 3: Prepare the Backup Plan
- Record a screen capture of the full demo flow (in case live demo fails)
- Prepare 2-3 screenshots of key screens as fallback slides
- Test the app on the presentation machine/network before going on stage
- Have the live URL ready as a backup to localhost

- [ ] Timed the full presentation (fits within the slot)
- [ ] Practiced at least 3 times out loud
- [ ] Tested the ap
