Most product tours are drawings of a product. This one is the product's output.

torun.ai/tour is a deck. Every card on it points at something real: a conversation or a video or a song that was published as a share, a template card pulled live from the Workshop, an entry from the A–Z. Nothing on the page is a mock-up of a feature, because the point of the page is that these things exist.

Cards open where they are

Clicking a card opens it in place rather than sending you away. A shared video or song or picture plays inside the card, through the same public gate that serves it anywhere else. A run opens with its first output. A chat opens as its first few turns, drawn as bubbles. Escape or a click outside closes it, media stops when it closes, and on a phone it fills the screen.

Present mode

Add ?present=1 and the deck becomes slides: one section per screen, arrow keys, space, page keys, Home and End, a column of progress dots down the side and no footer. Jumps are instant rather than gliding, because a smooth scroll is pleasant to read and useless to present with. /demo is an alias for the same page.

The cards for companies are screenshots of the real thing

The enterprise half of the tour used to be sentences. It now carries pictures of the actual screens: the map of which key is being used for which provider, a self-hosted provider's own base address, a line in the billing ledger with the pricing snapshot it was charged against, an entry in the hash-chained audit trail, a data-erasure request. They open in place next to the written summary.

They were captured under rules. Content area only — no sidebar, no avatar, no personal data, and usage shown in Runs rather than in money, which is how it is shown everywhere else in ToRun. Several planned captures were rejected outright for breaking one of those rules and are recorded as rejected rather than quietly replaced. Where a screen did not survive the rules, the card stays a plain link to the written entry instead of promising a picture that does not exist.

Thirty-four pieces of text for the page exist in all 29 languages. The page is not indexed by search engines: it is for sending to someone, not for being found.
