How to start a room
Rooms are where live professional conversations happen. You can start one instantly or schedule it for later.
Steps
- Tap Start Room from the bottom navigation on mobile or the left rail on desktop. To plan ahead, choose Schedule Room.
- Choose public, unlisted, or community-only visibility.
- Add a clear title, topic, and optional category so the right people find it.
- Tap Invite to share the link — Post to LinkedIn opens a ready-made post, or copy the link anywhere else.
- For a scheduled room, guests wait in a lobby. When you're ready, tap Start room now and everyone waiting moves in automatically.
- Everyone except the host joins in the audience with their mic off. Listeners raise a hand; hosts and co-hosts invite them up. Up to 15 people can be on stage.
Room tools for hosts
- Speaker timer — scroll minutes and seconds (5-second steps), then tap Start.
- Pinned links — keep a resource at the top of the room.
- Watch party — search YouTube or paste a link to play a video for everyone.
- Donate — verified nonprofits can pin their donation link. Donations go directly to the nonprofit's own page.
- Recording (Premium) — download the audio, transcript, and summary within 48 hours, after which the raw recording is deleted.
