Hi everyone — I made DemoVeil because I wanted a very simple way to prepare my Mac screen before calls, demos, screenshots, and recordings. A lot of tools try to do too much. I wanted something faster and more focused: open from the menu bar, choose a preset, adjust a couple of toggles, and clean up the screen in seconds. DemoVeil currently focuses on three use cases: • Call • Present • Capture It is intentionally simple in v1, and I’m launching it early to learn what people actually need most. Known limitations in the current version: • Finder windows are not hidden automatically • Minimized Dock items remain visible • Some hidden apps may still require one Dock click after Restore I’d love feedback on two things: 1. Is the positioning clear? 2. Which preset is the most useful to you?

I always struggle with a messy desktop every time i record a demo video for my app. 😅 It takes so much time to hide everything manually! I think the 'Capture' preset will be a real lifesver for me. the positioning is 100% clear. thanks for building this, exactly what I needed!!

@linapok Thank you Lina — this is exactly the kind of use case I built DemoVeil for. I wanted the Capture preset to remove that repetitive pre-recording cleanup and make demo recording much faster. Really glad the positioning feels clear to you. If you try it, I’d love to hear what feels most useful and what still feels missing.

@mattia_vascellari Appreciate the reply! 🙌 I've officially bookmarked Demoveil for my next recording session. it's exactly the 'forcused' utility I've been looking for. Goodluck with the rest of the launch!

Perfect timing — I'm prepping my own Mac app for a PH launch on April 14th and screen cleanup is always the last thing I remember. Downloading this today.

Thank you — that’s exactly the kind of moment I built DemoVeil for.

The goal was to make screen cleanup something you can do in seconds instead of remembering it at the last minute before a launch, demo, or recording.

If you try it for your April 14 Product Hunt launch, I’d really love to hear what feels useful and what still feels missing.

@mattia_vascellari Will definitely use it for the launch prep. I've got screenshots and a demo video to record in the next 10 days — perfect timing to put DemoVeil through a real workflow. I'll report back with honest feedback.

Good luck with your launch too!
