The rise of short-form, ephemeral content like Instagram Stories has created a demand for more interactive live experiences, especially for creators who want to share tutorials, demos, or educational content. However, current tools like Instagram Live lack seamless desktop screen-sharing, forcing creators to rely on clunky workarounds. This makes it harder to deliver high-quality, real-time learning experiences to audiences.
One way to address this gap is by enabling creators to sync their desktop screens directly to Instagram Live or Stories. This could be done through a lightweight desktop app or browser extension, allowing real-time broadcasting of tutorials, presentations, or walkthroughs. Key features might include:
This approach could benefit a wide range of users:
A simple MVP could begin with basic desktop-to-mobile screen-sharing for Instagram Live, avoiding the complexity of Stories integration at first. Testing with a small group of creators would help refine features like multi-window sharing or monetization tools. Over time, the feature could expand to include mobile-friendly optimizations (like auto-zooming on key content) and deeper integration with Instagram’s discovery tools.
Compared to standalone platforms like Zoom or Loom, this idea leverages Instagram’s social ecosystem—making it easier for creators to grow their audience and for users to discover live, interactive learning.
