Airtime

Camera for video calls

A virtual camera that corrects presenter lighting, applies looks with real, blurred or virtual backgrounds, and shows GIFs, visuals and away screens during a call.

Recorder

Records the presenter, the screen or both from a browser or the desktop app, in high definition for up to 1 hour, with system audio and simple trimming of the start and end.

Viewer-controlled playback

A finished recording is shared as a hosted link or downloaded as an MP4, and the presenter picture can be moved and resized even after publishing.

Creator presentations

A desktop suite that places the speaker and slides in one layout, imports .ppt, .key and .pdf files, and records in chapters that can be rearranged and trimmed.

Stacks for meetings

Materials are gathered into a stack before a meeting so attendees can scan ahead, go back and zoom on their own, and the stack remains after the call.

Team administration

The Team plan adds an admin dashboard, centralized billing and single sign-on with Apple or Google.

Vidyard

Screen and camera recording

The Chrome and Edge extension records the screen, the camera or both at up to 1080p. The Mac and Windows desktop app records in any application at up to 4K.

Video messages with view tracking

Share a recording by link or from inside Gmail, Outlook and sales tools, add a call to action, and get a notification when someone watches.

Video Agent

Creates and delivers personalized video messages automatically when a buyer takes an action such as downloading content or booking a demo. Unlimited use is a paid add-on.

AI avatars

Stock avatars are available on every plan, and custom avatars are trained on a video the user supplies. The AI script generator is included from Starter.

Hosting and video hubs

Vidyard Hosting, included from Starter, keeps business videos in one central library. Playback is ad-free with no bandwidth limits, and Video Hubs on a branded page start on Teams.

Analytics
