In their own words
LiveWebinar
LiveWebinar is a browser-based platform for webinars, meetings, classes, and other live sessions. It runs on HTML5 without viewer downloads or plugins, and supports live, automated, and on-demand webinars. Hosts can use screen sharing, streaming, recording, polls, surveys, chat, Q&A, breakout rooms, and a whiteboard. Paid webinars can use built-in ticketing and payment processing, while evergreen webinars can run automatically. Integrations connect it with marketing automation tools and CRMs; developers can use embedding, webhooks, and an API. Supported devices include PCs, Smart TVs, mobile devices, and conferencing systems. The lifetime free account requires no credit card and allows up to five attendees for sessions up to 30 minutes. Paid plans start at $25.58 a month when billed annually; Basic lists 25 attendees and sessions up to six hours. Room sizes can be configured from 25 to 1,000 attendees, with larger rooms for Enterprise customers. LiveWebinar says meeting data uses AES-256 encryption and TLS, alongside unique session tokens, single sign-on, and role-based access control.
