We’ve been hard at work building tools to enhance your communication superpowers, and while a new version of mmhmm is coming in the fall, we’re offering a preview of what’s to come.
With mmhmm 2.9, we’re making it easier to turn your knowledge into videos that convey what you know and who you are.
Think out loud with Questions
Questions, our AI tool, offers a new approach for creating video content without a script. It’s not a script-writer—we’re not here to tell you what to think. Instead, Questions can help you articulate your own thoughts in your own voice. Start by telling us the topic of your video; then, answer AI-enhanced questions to create a concise, edited video you can share or add to. Learn more about Questions from our CEO, Phil Libin, and hear about our approach to human-centered AI.
Jump ahead with the new start screen
The new start screen makes it easier to get right to work on your next video, whether you’re starting from scratch or building on an existing presentation.
On the New tab, start a new presentation using one of our pre-designed layouts or import your favorite deck from PowerPoint, Keynote, or PDF.
On the Presentations tab, browse through your video and presentation library, or search for the video you want to work on.
Add visuals anytime with overlays
Great videos don’t always have to start with a storyboard. Energize your videos with visual variety and momentum without slowing down the pace of your audio by adding overlays. Add images, videos, and text to your video after you’ve recorded what you want to say. Visit our help center article on recording for more details on how to add an overlay.
Explore expanded design options
Over the last few months, we’ve expanded our design options to give you more control over your presentations for both live and recorded sessions.
A reorganized interface
Find everything you need to create, modify, or record your videos from the top toolbar. Use the bottom toolbar to navigate through your slides, or invite colleagues to a work session.
Slide layouts
Choose from 8 pre-designed slide layouts with or without media and text, or add a blank slide and design it yourself.
Crop and zoom
Edit your visuals to draw attention to the areas that matter. Adjust your videos, screenshares, and images without having to export them elsewhere.
Laser pointers
Make your point with three different shapes (arrow, cursor, or hand) or five colored laser pointers so your audience never has to guess where to look.
Plus: Everything you don’t see
Sometimes the best enhancements are the ones you never notice. We’ve improved mmhmm’s performance and squashed a lot of bugs. Your feedback is crucial for helping us make mmhmm better for everyone, so please reach out to customer support to share your thoughts.
