White-label integration

Hybrid mode

To optimize the engagement of all participants during a hybrid event, it's essential to provide tools tailored to their participation mode, whether they are attending in person or remotely.
With our new Hybrid Mode, participants can indicate whether they are on-site or remote, and Sparkup's interface automatically adapts by enabling or disabling specific features, such as the video player.


Hybrid Mode Sparkup


For remote participants, the interactive video player is automatically activated, allowing them to follow the live stream and engage with emojis, raise their hand, participate in polls, quizzes, word clouds, etc. Their microphone and camera also activate, enabling them to join the video wall and speak if invited to contribute.
For on-site participants, the video is deactivated, focusing the interface on interactivity like chat, emoji reactions, polls, word clouds, and more.
Participants can switch between modes as needed, enabling or disabling the video.


As the organizer, you can create specific access links to enforce a particular mode for participants, simplifying group management and ensuring a smooth transition between different types of participation.

Custom emojis and real-time analytics

Expressing engagement and emotions in real-time keeps your audience interested and interacting during an event. With Sparkup, you can now customize the 5 reaction emojis to match the spirit and theme of your event. Choose your own images to create a unique emoji set that reflects your brand's personality or event tone. This creative freedom adds a fun and engaging dimension for your participants.


Here's a first example of a live stream with a Sparkup-themed emoji set. We love that set and have been using for our all hands meetings.

Introducing the Call Center

One of the most powerful features we’re introducing with this update is the Call Center. This new tool revolutionizes the way you can involve viewers in your livestream. Now, you can view a list of all participants at a glance and see who has activated their camera, who is active, and who has raised their hand. You can then select any participant, even if they haven’t raised their hand, and invite them to join the livestream as a speaker. A quick search function allows you to instantly find the participant you want to invite.

When a participant is selected, they receive a pop-up notification inviting them to join the live stream as a contributor. This feature greatly simplifies the process of inviting participants into the live session and facilitates smoother, more dynamic interactions during your events.
