You don't have to download and upload your reels to share them, although of course you can!

Reduct’s Share URLs link to our "Share Pages" (example) where users can watch the reel that you’ve created, with the interactive transcript alongside. The URL unfurls nicely in apps like Slack, and the video on the Share Page automatically updates when the source reel is changed. This means that you can not only leverage Reduct for sharing bite-sized research over Slack, but also create decks with links to your reels while you or your team is still finalizing edits.
