# Create a demo from a URL

The fastest way to see LiveDemo on your own product: enter a public website and LiveDemo builds a demo from it.

## Generate

1. During onboarding, click **Create your first Live Demo**. In **How recording works**, enter your site in the **Demo** field, such as `https://yourwebsite.com`.
2. LiveDemo shows **Creating your demo...**, then the preview while it's generated.
3. Click **Edit** to open it in the editor. If you're not signed in, you'll be asked to create a free account first.

The URL must be a public `https://` address. Pages behind a login can't be read. Capture those with the [Chrome extension](https://livedemo.ai/docs/capture-a-livedemo/how-to-capture-a-livedemo/) instead.

## What you get

A starting demo of your public site that you can edit like any other: change the text, add [popups](https://livedemo.ai/docs/edit-a-livedemo/popup/) and a [call to action](https://livedemo.ai/docs/edit-a-livedemo/popup-buttons-and-effects/), then [share it](https://livedemo.ai/docs/share/share-your-public-livedemo/).

For a demo of your actual product, record it with the [Chrome extension](https://livedemo.ai/docs/capture-a-livedemo/screenshots-and-video/).
