The Problem

Sound familiar? These are the challenges you face without the right tool.

Spreadsheets are impossible to explain in text

Writing 'look at cell G47 and follow the VLOOKUP to the Revenue tab' in Slack is an exercise in frustration. Your colleague opens the sheet, scrolls to the wrong cell, and messages back 'which one?' The back-and-forth never ends.

Screenshots don't show the workflow

A screenshot of a dashboard shows one moment in time. It doesn't show how you filtered the data, which tabs you compared, or how the numbers flow between sheets. The process is invisible.

Small text and numbers are unreadable

Spreadsheets are dense. Cells are tiny. Column headers are abbreviated. In a full-screen recording, all that critical data becomes an illegible blur of text. Viewers can't read the numbers you're explaining.

Live walkthroughs are hard to schedule

Getting your finance team, your PM, and your CEO in the same room to walk through quarterly data is a scheduling nightmare. And when they have questions later, there's no recording to reference.

Analytics dashboards need narration

A Plausible, Mixpanel, or Google Analytics dashboard is powerful — but only if you know where to look. Without narration and visual guidance, stakeholders stare at charts without understanding what they mean for the business.

Formulas and logic need visual explanation

Complex formulas, pivot tables, and data transformations make sense to the person who built them. Everyone else sees a wall of syntax. Showing the input-output relationship visually is the only way to make it click.

How Zumie Helps

Zumie turns these pain points into non-issues with smart automation.

Automatic zoom into cells and charts

As you click on cells, select ranges, and navigate between sheets, Zumie automatically zooms in. Your viewers see the exact cell, formula, or chart you're discussing — even tiny 10px text becomes perfectly readable.

Click highlights show your data flow

When you click from one cell to a referenced cell, switch tabs, or select a chart, every interaction is highlighted. Viewers can follow your data trail step by step without getting lost in the spreadsheet.

Narrate once, share forever

Record a 3-minute walkthrough of your monthly metrics, quarterly report, or financial model. Share the link with your team. When new people join or questions come up months later, the walkthrough is still there — no repeat explanation needed.

Works with any browser-based data tool

Google Sheets, Notion databases, Airtable, Plausible, Mixpanel, Metabase, Retool — if it runs in Chrome, Zumie captures it with full automatic zoom and click highlights.

Professional output for stakeholder presentations

Gradient backgrounds and smooth zoom transitions turn a spreadsheet walkthrough into something you'd be proud to send to executives or clients. It doesn't look like a raw screen grab.

Replace the 'quick call to walk you through the data'

Instead of scheduling a meeting every time someone asks about the numbers, send them a Zumie recording. It's faster for you, more convenient for them, and creates a permanent reference.

How It Works
