Now hereās how StreamAlive looks in Saidās virtual sessionsā¦
If youāve ever wondered (or wished) to make your virtual sessions MORE than just a talking head or more than just a PowerPoint deck, then you need to sign up for Saidās next (free) training session.
Heāll be introducing the Fit For Facilitation community to StreamAlive. Itās a fantastic, fast-growing community with many amazing and generous facilitators. Oh, and itās free to join.
For this session, weāve heard that Said plans to keep it simple for starters, and so as not to overwhelm first-time usersā¦.but might pull out the stops if you ask him nicely.

Wait, whoās Said again?
Said is like you, a user (albeit a power user) of StreamAlive who wants to help you make more engaging and visually appealing live sessions. He is the founder of the Facilitainer. He is also a believer in the value of engagement, and an (unpaid) ambassador for the product. šš½
Can you get a higher score than 573?
Last week we announced our new arcade game for trainers.
Hundreds of you played and while itās easy to get started itās difficult to master.
Thatās why the average score so far is just 573.
Can you do better?
Easter egg: If you hit a certain 4 digit high score, you can win some StreamAlive merch!
Throwback to when we launched Tarot Cards for trainers
A few months back we launched the Tarot Cards for trainers. Itās a fun way to discover what fate has in store for your next live session.
From WiFi gremlins to all participant cameras being switched on.
Will the cards predict what will happen in your next event?
Summarize your chat in seconds
When the conversation is flowing in the chat it can be difficult to make sense of what the overall sentiment or thoughts are.
Thatās where StreamAliveās AI comes in.
When you use interactions like Talking Tiles or Transient Thoughts or Wonder Words, a simple button click and turn hundreds of chat messages into a quick, clear summary.
Just click the light bulb icon during your live session to generate a full summary of the text. Youāll get:
Highlights: An overview of the themes and topics your audience spoke about
Popular opinions: If there was a theme that many people spoke about or had a consensus on, it would get mentioned here
Alternative voices: If there were any contrarian takes on the popular opinions, they would get highlighted
Notable quotes: If something quite profound was said by an audience member, it would get picked up
As always, weād love to know your feedback in our community!

The chat summarization feature is a gamechanger for facilitatrs trying to make sense of dozens of mesages flying by in real-time. Being able to quickly identiy consensus points without scrolling through everything manually saves so much time. Curious how well it picks up on nuanced takes though.
