# Bondline product walkthrough

Duration: 3 minutes 20 seconds. Audience: a person using Bondline for the first time.
This is a recording-ready script, not a claim that a finished video exists.

## Before recording

Use the stable production domain and the actual configured deployment. Record a controlled Circle with consenting participants. Use real contract outcomes, not simulated transitions or invented messages. The current v2 network is Monad testnet: keep the network label visible and explain that test MON has no cash value. Hide password-manager information, private conversations, session cookies, keys, and provider credentials. Never represent controlled recording accounts as organic customers.

Prepare these real states before filming:

- A funded account with the same recoverable Mera passkey on this domain.
- An existing Circle invitation for the joining account, and at least one eligible peer reviewer.
- A Circle-reviewed goal that can actually be completed and evidenced during recording.
- A real completed commitment with successful settlement.
- A real expired commitment that can be settled as missed, prepared at least a day earlier using the current form. Do not fake a countdown or change the production clock.
- A previously closed, settled deadline week with an earned claimable reward if filming a reward claim. If none exists, explain the rules and show the genuine unavailable state; do not invent an earned amount.

## Script and shots

| Time | Screen / action | Voice-over |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 0:00–0:15 | Public homepage, hero and actual Circle preview | “Bondline helps you put money behind the promises you make. Choose a goal, a deadline, and a stake, then follow through with people who know you.” |
| 0:15–0:35 | Get started, create account, account address and network | “Start with a passkey, using your device lock or password manager. There’s no seed phrase to write down. This creates your signing account. Return with the same passkey, and check the network before funding it. This walkthrough uses Monad testnet; test MON has no cash value.” |
| 0:35–0:50 | Open Circle invite; Members; Accept invitation; then Chat | “A Circle is your shared home. Create one with a friend or accept a member’s invitation. Conversation is private to signed-in members. On-chain commitments are public.” |
| 0:50–1:15 | Make a commitment; enter a specific goal, amount, deadline, Circle review | “Describe an outcome your friends can judge. Choose a stake you’re comfortable losing, a deadline, and the completion rule. Start small. A transaction fee is separate from your stake.” |
| 1:15–1:30 | Review & confirm screen; show exact deadline and both outcomes; sign | “Review before you confirm. Once created, you can’t cancel or edit the commitment. Complete and verify it to get your stake back. Miss it, and the stake funds your Circle.” |
| 1:30–1:45 | Switch to consenting peer account; Back them; confirmed backed state | “Friends can back you while you work. Backing records encouragement. It doesn’t risk their stake, and it doesn’t approve evidence. They still pay the fee for recording support.” |
| 1:45–2:10 | Creator submits real evidence before deadline; eligible peer opens it and approves | “Share evidence before your deadline. Your Circle then has 24 hours to review. Eligible peers can approve or dispute it. Earlier backing doesn’t count toward this decision. On-chain balance goals instead use their selected check; GitHub needs a configured worker.” |
| 2:10–2:25 | Real completed card and explorer receipt; profile refund credit only if present | “Once verification succeeds, the contract releases the stake. If a recipient cannot receive a direct refund, returned stake can be received from the profile instead.” |
| 2:25–2:40 | Separate genuinely expired goal; settle missed state; Circle Pot | “Here is the other path. A missed deadline can be settled, and the failed stake funds this Circle’s Pot. No staff member needs to decide who deserves a refund.” |
| 2:40–2:55 | Pot & rewards; actual period state and, only if eligible, claim | “In v2, failed stakes are reserved for weekly rewards. After the deadline week ends and every commitment settles, each completed commitment earns an equal share. Multiple completions earn multiple shares.” |
| 2:55–3:10 | Profile metrics and history; actual completion rate | “Your settled outcomes build a record of follow-through: completion rate, streak, committed amounts, and supporters. It’s context for your progress, not a credit score.” |
| 3:10–3:20 | Security page, then homepage CTA | “Know the rules and risks before staking. The contracts aren’t independently audited. Start with a small promise and people you trust.” |

## Editing and accessibility

Record at a consistent 1440×900 desktop viewport and capture a separate mobile pass. Use readable zoom, steady cursor motion, short transitions, captions, and no flashing effects. Cut the waiting time between signature and confirmation; never replace a failed transaction with a fabricated success. Label any prepared examples. Use gentle narration, no financial-return claims, and no invented testimonials.

## Publication

Upload the real completed recording only after checking captions and consent. Set NEXT_PUBLIC_GUIDANCE_VIDEO_URL to a real HTTPS recording URL when available. The homepage, guide, onboarding, and docs can then link to it. The default experience links to the written guide while no recording exists.
