Chat
Chat gives attendees and hosts a shared live conversation alongside the broadcast. Viewers use it from the watch page, and hosts can follow the same audience chat from the studio.
Where chat appears
Attendees see Chat in the engagement panel on the hosted watch page.
Hosts and moderators see the same audience chat inside the studio side rail.
Private presenter conversations are separate from audience chat and are only visible inside the studio.
Send and follow messages
Open the watch page or the studio Audience panel.
Select Chat if another engagement tab is active.
Type a message and send it.
Keep the chat panel open during active discussion so new messages are easy to spot.
Use chat during a broadcast
Use chat for quick reactions, links, reminders, and lightweight conversation.
Direct structured questions to Q&A instead of letting important questions get buried in chat.
Hosts can promote useful chat moments to on-screen content when that adds value for viewers.
Have a moderator watch chat during busy sessions so the host can stay focused on production.
Moderation and access
Organizers, staff, hosts, co-hosts, and moderators can manage inappropriate chat activity when moderation controls are available.
Attendees must use a valid watch page session to participate in broadcast chat.
If an attendee cannot see chat, ask them to refresh the watch page and confirm they are using their registered watch link.
