Ever wanted to watch a full session recording, but just didn’t have the time? You’re not alone. Recordings can be long and sometimes require digging through uneventful content to find insightful moments.
That’s why we’re launching Highlights, a new way to experience session recordings that’s as fast, fun, and insightful as your favorite social media shorts.
Why Highlights?
Traditional recordings capture everything, but finding the key insights often means scrubbing, skipping, and guessing where to look. Valuable moments get buried in long playbacks, and busy teams can miss key opportunities for improvement.
Highlights solve this by automatically surfacing the most important moments, so you can focus on the core elements of the user journey. With highlights, you can cut through the noise and watch only key events like taps, clicks, form inputs, and smart UI moments.
So how does it work? Clarity Highlights combine smart event detection with a fluid, social-inspired viewing experience:
- Smart Event Detection filters out background noise and focuses on meaningful user interactions.
- Speed & Flow skips uneventful stretches while keeping enough context to make sense.
How Highlights Save Time and Simplify Collaboration
Faster Decision-Making
Instead of scrubbing through a 6-minute recording, you can review a 90-second reel that surfaces the biggest user struggles or successes. That means you spend less time searching for insights and more time acting on them.
Accessible Insights for Everyone
Not every stakeholder has the time—or patience—to watch full replays. Highlights lower the barrier by giving executives, designers, and marketers a fast way to see what’s happening, without diving into technical detail.
Together, these benefits mean your team can respond to user needs more quickly, align on what matters, and keep improvements moving forward without delay.
