Changelog

What we shipped

Notable changes to WebinarRun, newest first. Small fixes are left out.

October 2026

  1. Analytics

    Clearer webinar analytics

    • The Registered Users table now shows Attended, Joined At, Left At, Watch Time and % Watched, with filters for Attended, Did not attend and Stayed to the end.
    • Each attendee pop-up shows a "parts watched" bar, so you can see exactly which parts of the video they saw.
    • Retention is now one clear curve, and Real-Time lists each person on the watch page with the event and their current position.
    • Watch time now counts only the seconds the video actually played while the tab was visible, and the CSV export matches the table.
  2. Webinars

    Typing indicators in webinar chat

    • You can now see when an attendee is typing in the Chat Room, and attendees see "Host is typing…" while you reply.
    • The Chat Room list and unread badge update live on every dashboard page.
    • Enter sends a message and Shift+Enter adds a new line, for both you and your attendees.
    • Attendees get an unread badge on the Chat tab of the watch page.
  3. Webinars

    Better watch page on phones

    • On a phone, the Q&A after the video now uses one tab panel for Chat, Polls, Offers and Resources, with one pinned offer.
    • Attendees who open your link inside WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn or Telegram get full screen at once, plus a small "Open in browser" bar.
  4. Webinars

    Formatted offer descriptions

    • Offer descriptions now keep their formatting on the watch page.
    • The offer description editor shows only the formatting tools attendees will actually see.
  5. Contacts

    Assign contacts and track overdue follow-ups

    • You can now assign contacts to an agent or spread them evenly across a team, one by one or in bulk.
    • Follow-ups due has All, Due today and Overdue views, with an "Overdue · N days" tag.
    • CSV import opens a small window that shows new, updated and skipped rows, and you can download the skipped rows with reasons.
    • Sort the Contacts table by Date added, newest or oldest first.
  6. Contacts

    Duplicate lead review

    • When a form submission matches an existing contact by phone but has a different email, it now waits in a Duplicate leads list.
    • Approve applies the new details to the contact; Reject discards them.
  7. AI

    AI follow-up after webinars

    • Turn on "After this webinar, AI follows up registrants automatically" in each event's AI assistant settings.
    • Choose who follows up each contact with the new "Follow-up by: AI / Me / None" column, one by one or in bulk.
    • The new AI follow-up page lists everyone the AI is following up, with their status and next step.
    • Follow-up dates can now include a time.
  8. Webinars

    Offer the next 15-minute slot

    • Weekly schedules have a new "Also offer the next 15-minute slot" option, so visitors can join a session that starts in a few minutes.
    • Registration pages label that slot "Starting soon" in the session dropdown.

September 2026

  1. Webinars

    Registration questions from contact fields

    • You now add a registration question by picking a contact field, or creating one on the spot, so answers land straight in the contact record.
    • Sign-up forms show each contact field type, including dropdowns, dates, numbers and yes/no.
    • The embedded button and inline iframe ask the same registration questions as your landing page.
    • Before you delete a contact field, you see which events use it.
  2. WhatsApp

    Webinar reminder templates for WhatsApp

    • Recommended webinar templates now sit behind a "Webinar templates" toggle in the Templates toolbar.
    • Each template card shows its Meta status and a "Publish to Meta" button, or "Publish all" for the full set.
    • Published templates are locked to prevent accidental edits, and out-of-date cards offer "Update to latest".
  3. Webinars

    New thank-you and waiting-room pages

    • Attendees see a cleaner thank-you page and waiting room with a countdown, a copyable personal join link and add-to-calendar buttons.

    • Join links no longer include the attendee's email address.
