GitLab Duo Agent Platform repurposed for automated demo generation

A GitLab team member reduced demo production time from multiple days to hours by repurposing GitLab Duo Agent Platform for automated demo generation. The platform, originally designed for agentic workflows across the software development lifecycle, successfully automated screenshot capture, narrative stitching, and environment setup for click-through demos. Unlike traditional methods requiring virtual machines or external SaaS tools, the agent-based approach creates demos directly within project environments without vendor dependencies. The workflow accommodates non-technical roles, with observed adoption by non-engineering staff creating technical demonstrations.
