Use Cases

Moderators can have more flexibility on how to manage their conversations.

ex. would be talking with each individual respondent before starting the full focus group.

If live support has been added to the session, live support agents use this functionality to help manage the respondents before the session starts and easily excuse undesired respondents from the waiting room or keep them waiting after they are tech checked by the agent until the session starts.

Blurred Background Feature
Before joining a live session, you can select your video devices and opt to blur your background. This feature is essential for maintaining impartiality, objectivity, and privacy—especially crucial in healthcare research. This feature works for Chromium browsers (Chrome and Edge) and NOT with non-chromium-based browsers like Safari or on IOS.
Blurred backgrounds provide a customized interview experience that enables the privacy of any background content. Mitigate worries regarding personal identifying information (PII) in the background by easily concealing it with the click of a button. You can also access the blurred background feature through the settings cog during the session to make real-time adjustments. Every change is reflected in the recording, transparently showing when the background was blurred or revealed.
