Live video streaming via standard protocol.

RTMP allows content to stream from external production software into the event platform. Zuddl supports RTMP for high-quality live production integration.

Simulive lets organizers combine pre-recorded content with live chat, polls, and Q&A for a hybrid experience. Zuddl supports simulive workflows for smoother session execution.

Video On-Demand

Recorded event sessions available after the live broadcast.

Video on-demand (VOD) allows attendees to replay past sessions anytime after the event. It extends the lifecycle of event content, driving post-event engagement and lead generation. Zuddl supports gated and ungated VOD with analytics for tracking viewing behavior.

Live Production Studio

A built-in studio for producing branded live streams.

A live production studio enables event teams to add overlays, lower-thirds, branding, and transitions directly within the platform. Zuddl’s studio eliminates the need for third-party tools, providing an end-to-end solution for polished, broadcast-quality events.

Speaker Backstage Access

A private virtual waiting area for speakers.

Speaker backstage (greenroom) access allows presenters to prepare, test equipment, and coordinate with producers before going live. Zuddl provides backstage functionality to ensure smooth session execution and speaker confidence.

Session Replay

On-demand playback of past sessions.

Allows attendees to rewatch recorded sessions after the event. Zuddl’s replay features include time-stamped analytics and content clipping.

Multistreaming (YouTube, LinkedIn)

Broadcasting live events across multiple platforms simultaneously.

Multistreaming lets organizers stream sessions to external channels like YouTube, LinkedIn, and Facebook while engaging attendees inside the event platform. Zuddl supports RTMP-based multistreaming to expand reach without losing centralized analytics.

Lower Thirds Graphics

Branded overlays showing speaker names and titles.

Lower thirds are on-screen graphics used to display speaker names, company logos, or key messages during live streams. Zuddl’s live production studio enables customizable lower thirds for professional, branded broadcasts.

Auto-Captioning
