Just built a public roadmap tracker for our SaaS using Runway.

Hey folks, Just wanted to share a recent experience. Our team needed a public-facing roadmap for our SaaS product, and we wanted it to be more dynamic and transparent than a static page or a buried Trello board. We decided to build it using Runway, and I’m honestly pretty impressed with how it turned out. We used Runway’s video editor to create short, digestible clips for each major feature in the pipeline. Each clip shows a quick prototype or mockup, with text overlays explaining the problem it solves and the expected timeline. We then embedded these into a simple public Notion page, categorized by “Now,” “Next,” and “Later.” The whole thing feels much more alive and engaging than a list of bullet points. The biggest win was how it changed our internal communication, too. Instead of lengthy written specs, our product team now drafts these quick videos. It cuts down on misinterpretation and gets everyone—engineering, design, marketing—on the same page faster. We’ve also started adding short “behind the scenes” clips for completed items, showing the actual work that went into it, which our users seem to love. Has anyone else tried using Runway for non-traditional, non-marketing purposes like this? I’m curious about other creative applications for internal or community tools. Also, if you’ve built a public roadmap with other tools, what was your approach? Always looking to learn from this community’s workflows. — Eric

Oh wow, the compliance angle is something I hadn't considered at all. Even just thinking about GDPR, having a bunch of "promise" videos with PII details floating in a cloud bucket sounds like a nightmare to clean up.

Your story about searching for an API endpoint is brutal. I was already worried about just finding old videos, but not being able to search inside them makes it totally unmanageable. How did your team even handle that audit? Did you just give up and rebuild the specs from scratch?
