Verifying Clicks in AI-Recorded Website Demos Requires Checking Visible Results

A product demo recorded by an AI tool showed the cursor moving and the page scrolling, but it missed the step the viewer needed to see: opening the Captions page. Across three attempts with the same destination, two reported zero completed clicks, and only the third reached the correct page. The author found that the cursor could appear before navigation finished, and that a sidebar selector worked on desktop, though portrait layouts might collapse navigation into a menu. The recommended fix is to verify each step by checking a visible result on screen, such as a destination heading, rather than trusting that a click was reported. Frame extraction with FFmpeg was used to confirm the click timing against the recorded footage.
