// OVERLAID FOR SALES
Make them remember the right number.
Every pitch has one number that matters. Highlight the row, circle the ROI, and write the takeaway right beside it, in whatever spreadsheet or deck you're already showing.

// SOUND FAMILIAR?
THINGS YOU'LL STOP SAYING.
“The number that matters is... somewhere on this slide.”
“If you look at row four... the highlighted... it's not highlighted.”
“I'll send you the deck after.”
// HOW IT PLAYS OUT
THREE MOMENTS WHERE IT PAYS OFF.

Overlaid draws on your screen, not inside an app, so anything you can see, you can draw on.
ONE THING TO KNOW
Share your entire screen, not a single window.
Your drawings live in their own transparent layer on top of everything. A single-window share only sends that one window, so viewers won't see your marks. Share the whole screen and they will.
// FAQ
QUESTIONS WE GET.
No. Overlaid draws on your own Mac's screen, so it works when you're the one sharing. For drawing on someone else's shared screen, Zoom and Teams have built-in annotation for viewers.
That's up to your IT team, but there's not much to review: no account, no cloud, no network calls for drawing, and nothing is recorded or uploaded. The download is under 2 MB and the privacy policy is short.
Each person buys their own one-time licence today. Email us if you're buying for a team and we'll sort it out.
