Product Hunt ↗ · Product Hunt ↗ - 2023 Clueso launches as a product-video and documentation tool

Neel Balar / Product Hunt ↗ · Clueso ↗ - 2023 Pivots from Desklamp to Clueso during YC
The team entered YC W23 with Desklamp, a PDF note-taking product. The founder said it had 25,000+ users but could not secure paid subscriptions from universities or research labs, prompting a pivot midway through the batch. At Desklamp, demos helped users adopt features but could take up to two weeks to produce; that problem led to Clueso. The 25,000+ were Desklamp users, not Clueso users.
Clueso ↗ · Y Combinator ↗ - 2026-07-08 Expands from editing recordings to agent-led video production
The official changelog records an MCP integration in June for tools such as Claude and ChatGPT, followed by Clueso Agents in July. Agents can script, record product screens, edit, and add voiceover and captions. The core job remains producing product videos for businesses, rather than a move to a different product category.
Clueso ↗ - 2026-08-22 Adds self-updating product videos
Clueso announced that Agents could compare product releases with an existing video library, identify outdated content, and re-record changed screens. This extends the product from one-off video creation to ongoing maintenance.
Clueso ↗ - 2026-10-13 Company reports use by over 1,000 organizations
In its Series A announcement, Clueso said more than 1,000 organizations worldwide use it to create and update videos, including Atlassian, GitLab, and Zendesk. This is a company-reported usage count; paid-customer share and revenue were not disclosed.
