Why run your automated webinar on Welya

Keep the session you know works, with its offer at the same moment, and choose when it runs again.

  • Your live session, as it ran: the video, offers, polls and quizzes come back at the same moment.
  • Or an MP4 file: start from an edited presentation and place your interactions where you want.
  • Booking and checkout in the room: Calendly or iClosed for calls, Whop or Stripe for payment.
  • Sessions that start on their own: add your dates, and each session begins at its scheduled time.
  • A chat if you want one: attendees can message you, and your team can reply.
  • The same tool as your live webinars: same offers, same booking and checkout tools, on every plan.

How it works, in 3 steps

Creating an automated webinar: choosing a past live session or an MP4 file, and carrying over the interactions (sample data)

01Pick the video and its interactions

Start from the live session that sold, or from a video recorded elsewhere.

  • A past Welya live session. The video and its interactions are carried over with their timestamps.
  • Or an MP4 file. An edited presentation in H.264 that you upload.
  • Streamed on YouTube? Upload its MP4 recording: that session's interactions line up with it.
Automated webinar interactions with their timestamps: offer, poll and quiz (sample data)

02Fine-tune the session

Every interaction has a timestamp you can change.

  • Move an offer. Show it earlier or later, right where your pitch lands.
  • Add a poll or a quiz. Or start from scratch and place each interaction yourself.
  • Remove what you no longer need. Your changes apply to the next sessions.
Automated webinar session dates: date, time, time zone and adding another date (sample data)

03Schedule your dates, then test

Registrants join at the date and time you announced.

  • Add your dates. One at a time, each with its own time and time zone.
  • Each session starts on its own. At the scheduled time, without you having to launch it.
  • Test before the first session. Preview the video and interactions, chat off, without skewing your analytics.

What your automated webinar includes

Welya automated webinar on mobile: the offer open below the video (sample data)

Your offer on time, checkout included

The offer from your live session opens at the same point in the video, in place of the chat.

  • Calendly, iClosed or the GoHighLevel calendar. Attendees book their call with your video still playing.
  • Whop, or Stripe on your own account. Attendees pay without leaving the room, on mobile too.
  • After the session as well. On the thank-you page, Stripe checkout included.
Automated webinar room joined 23 minutes in: the presentation continues where it is, and the team replies privately in the chat (sample data)

The video follows the session

Playback stays in step with the session, for every attendee.

  • No fast-forward. Attendees can't scrub ahead to skip parts of your presentation.
  • Your offer lands when planned. At the same point in your pitch as in your live session.
  • Latecomers join the session in progress. They start where the video is, not at the beginning.
Chat settings of an automated webinar: chat enabled, other attendees’ messages hidden by default (sample data)

Talk with attendees during the session

Keep the chat open if you like, and let your team answer.

  • Chat on or off. You decide for each automated webinar.
  • Private by default. You decide whether attendees can see each other's messages.
  • Your team can reply. You or your moderators join the session to answer questions.
Video replacement window: same video with one part removed, timecodes shifted and deleted items listed, next session shown (sample data)

Swap the video without starting over

New version of your presentation? Tell Welya what changed.

  • A brand-new video. Your interactions keep their timestamps, as long as they fit its length.
  • Sections cut out. Remaining interactions are realigned; those in removed sections are deleted.
  • From the next session. The current video keeps playing until the new one is ready.

Questions? We’ve got answers.

1. What is an automated webinar?

It's a recorded presentation that plays at scheduled times, with its polls and offers appearing when planned. It's also called an evergreen webinar, because the content stays relevant. On Welya, the video comes from a past live session or an MP4 file.

2. Is an automated webinar a live session?

No. It's a scheduled session that plays a recorded video, from a past live session or an MP4 file. To be confirmed: During the session, the room shows "Live" and the elapsed time, just as it does for a live session.

3. Can I reuse a webinar I ran on another platform?

Yes, if you have its recording as an MP4 file with H.264 video and AAC audio, up to 10 GB and within your plan's session length. You then place your offers, polls and quizzes on the timeline yourself.

4. Can attendees ask questions during the session?

Yes, if you turn the chat on. You or your moderators can join the session and reply, so the room isn't left without answers.

5. Can attendees watch whenever they want?

No. Each session runs at the date and time you set: you add dates one at a time, with no automatic repeat schedule and no session that starts when someone registers.

6. Does it work with my booking or checkout tool?

Yes, with the same tools as your live sessions: Calendly, iClosed, Typeform, Whop, the GoHighLevel calendar, Kalleo, Symetrial and Tally open in place of the chat, and so does Stripe checkout on your own account. Any other tool can be added as a link that opens in a new tab.

7. Do automated webinars convert as well as live ones?

That depends on your pitch and your offer, and we don't promise any numbers. The session keeps what happened in your live session: the same presentation, the offer at the same moment, booking or checkout in the room. Each session has its own analytics.

8. How much does it cost, and is there a free plan?

Automated webinars are included on every plan, starting with Launch at $79 per month billed annually, or $99 per month billed monthly. The free account, no credit card required, lets you set everything up; you need a subscription to run your sessions.
