Shared by Optimal • April 27, 2025

We’re excited to launch our video recording functionality for prototype testing, enabling you to dive deeper into the “why” behind user actions and empowering you to make data-informed decisions faster and with greater confidence.

This feature is available for Enterprise, Teams, and Individual+ plans. To get started, go to a Prototype test > Setup > Settings to set your preferences for audio, video, and screen recording.

We’re grateful to our early adopters and beta testers for shaping the future of video recording and prototype testing. Based on your valuable feedback, we’ve made the following updates:

Video recording updates

  • Additional recording controls: You can now control whether to reject participants or forward a participant to a non-recording study link if they do not meet your recording criteria.
  • Translations: Set your study language and translate the recording instructions into 180+ languages.
  • No video expirations: We’ve removed video expirations, ensuring your recordings remain accessible as long as you have an active Optimal subscription.
  • Improved participant experience: We’ve improved the technology to reduce technical errors, creating a more reliable and user-friendly experience.
