About Walkthrough
Walkthrough records your screen, a browser tab or a window together with your webcam, right in the browser. You press R to start, drop chapter markers while you record, and when you stop you get a link right away. The recording is saved to your own Google Drive, and viewers can watch in the browser without an account or an install. You can also export the file locally.
The vendor says recordings go straight to your Drive and never pass through its servers, so there is no Walkthrough cloud to depend on. The license activates the product for one browser profile, and signing into the same Google account elsewhere brings your library along. The result is described as 1080p with chapters. Walkthrough is sold as a one-time purchase rather than a subscription: a lifetime license covers updates, has no per-seat fee and no team minimums, and comes with a 14-day money-back guarantee.
