A new enhanced version of SpotMe Studio is here, packed with powerful improvements and exciting new features to elevate your live virtual and hybrid events.

We’re excited to bring you this upgraded experience with the new SpotMe Studio. Take advantage of the new features and improvements to ensure your virtual and hybrid events are better than ever!

What can you expect from the new version of SpotMe Studio?

A robust WebRTC foundation: powered by AWS Chime

We’ve upgraded the underlying WebRTC infrastructure to AWS Chime, a proven and reliable solution.

This migration provides:

• Improved stability and reliability for your live sessions.
• Enhanced video and audio quality for a seamless event experience.
• Reduced network complexity, making it easier to run SpotMe Studio in corporate IT environments with restricted settings.

Streamlined connectivity testing

The new connectivity test is now a mandatory step when entering Studio, ensuring all critical requirements are met. It is now significantly faster, and checks:

• Webcam functionality.
• Microphone functionality.
• Network readiness (firewalls, proxies, and other restrictions) for real-time WebRTC communication.
• Audio playback.

Real-time network quality indicator

A new real-time network quality indicator has been added to the user interface. It provides continuous feedback on your connection status, ensuring you’re always informed during live sessions.

New camera blurred background and noise cancelling

New camera blurred backgrounds are now available, allowing your speakers to hide their background for added privacy.

We've also added a new background noise removal option for speakers, that filters out environmental noise, ensuring crystal-clear audio delivery during your session.

When will the new SpotMe Studio version be available and how can you enable it?

The new SpotMe Studio will be available for individual organizations as opt-in starting December 3, 2024, and will be enabled automatically for all organizations in May 2025.
