The flow

How Live Classes works, end to end.

Each step is one screen, one decision, one handoff. Designed to feel like the next obvious thing.

01

Add a Live lesson

In the curriculum builder, pick "Live" as the lesson type. A clean handoff to the next stage.

02

Schedule

Set date/time. System generates Zoom/Meet link automatically. Built to be the part you stop thinking about.

03

Students get notified

15-min-before and at-start push + email notifications. Audit-logged, restorable, repeatable.

04

Recording replaces the lesson

After class, recording auto-populates as a catch-up video. Minimal clicks, maximal context.

Capabilities

What Live Classes gives you

Six capabilities, each shipped on the live product.

Zoom + Google Meet integration

Schedule classes in OptiLearn, links generated automatically. Students join via one click from the course page. No separate URL sharing.

Automatic attendance from join logs

Meeting participation data syncs back. Students marked present based on attendance duration. No manual roll-call.

Jibri self-hosted recording

Jibri integration for institution-owned recording. Recordings stored in your infrastructure, not a third-party SaaS. Good for data-sensitive institutions.

Recordings as catch-up lessons

After a live class, the recording becomes a replayable video lesson in the same course. Students who missed it catch up seamlessly.

Push notifications for live events

Mobile push notifications: "Live class starting in 15 minutes", "Class is live now", "Recording available".

Scheduling within course timeline

Live sessions slot in like any other lesson. Show up in drip-content schedules. Respect course-level enrollment and targeting.

Frequently asked

Common questions.

Which video providers are supported?

Zoom and Google Meet. Configure per institution or per course. You can run some courses on Zoom and others on Meet.

How is attendance tracked for live classes?

Automatically, from meeting join logs. Students are marked present based on attendance duration — no manual roll-call.

What if a student misses the live class?

The recording auto-populates as a catch-up video lesson in the same course after the session ends. Students who missed it watch later seamlessly.

Can we self-host recordings for data sensitivity?

Yes. Jibri integration lets you record in your own infrastructure rather than a third-party SaaS. Useful for institutions with strict data-residency requirements.

How do students know when class is starting?

Push notifications fire 15 minutes before start, when the class goes live, and when the recording becomes available. Email reminders supplement push.
