Most designers self-serve their way through Boardssey just fine, start the trial, follow Quick start in 5 minutes, ask the chat bubble if anything's unclear. But for studios, publishers, or anyone with specific questions, we offer personal demos: a 1-on-1 video walkthrough with a member of the team.
This page covers when to book one and how.

When a demo makes sense
Demos are most useful if you:
Run a studio evaluating tools for multiple designers and want to see the team-collaboration side in action.
Run a publishing company and want a tour of the catalog, sell sheets, and pitch tools from the publisher-side perspective.
Have very specific workflow questions that the help center doesn't quite answer.
Are evaluating Boardssey vs alternatives and want a side-by-side conversation.
If you're a solo designer just trying things out, the trial + the help center is usually the fastest path. Book a demo if you have specific needs or want a tailored walkthrough.
Book a slot
There's a booking link on boardssey.com and in the in-app chat bubble, typically opening a calendar where you pick a time that fits.
Demos are usually 30–45 minutes. Pick a slot when you can give it your full attention; the demo is most useful when both sides can talk through specifics.
What to bring to the demo
A specific use case: "I'm a studio with 3 designers and 5 active games" or "I'm a publisher evaluating designers' Boardssey portfolios" is much more useful than "show me everything."
Your top 3 questions: what do you most want answered? Saying so upfront focuses the conversation.
Your team if relevant, if you're evaluating for a team, having a decision-maker on the call shortcuts the "let me bring this back to my team" round.
What's covered in a demo
A typical demo runs through:
Your specific workflow ("show me how I'd manage 5 games with 2 collaborators").
Whatever specific questions you brought.
Plan recommendations based on your team size and needs.
Any LaunchBoom or Panda program eligibility you might have.
After the demo
You'll typically get a follow-up email with:
Links to the relevant help center articles for what we covered.
Any specific recommendations (plan, workflow, integrations).
An invitation to follow up with more questions.
There's no hard sales push. The demo is a conversation, not a pitch.
Tips & common questions
Can I demo Boardssey before signing up? Yes. The trial doesn't require a demo, but we do demos for prospects too, nothing's gated.
Can I record the demo? Ask at the start. We're usually happy to record so you can share with your team.
Can my team join? Yes, invite teammates to the calendar slot. Up to 3–4 people works well; larger groups become hard to facilitate.
Are demos available in languages other than English? We try to accommodate where we have a team member who speaks the language. Mention your preference when booking and we'll arrange where possible.
