Ninety-second walkthrough — transcription, clips, Attendee Hub, Advocacy, and Dispatch on the program graph.
Brightcove serves enterprise video teams with ovp libraries. Sessionboard is the webinar program layer: request forms, SME Explorer across your speaker CRM, recording and transcript ingest, clips, Advocacy to hosts and attendees, Dispatch to internal teams, and efficacy back to CRM — via API and import paths beside your runtime.
Match your role to the job Sessionboard solves — program ops, content reuse, or marketing attribution.
Teams request webinars faster than you can find SMEs — intake forms and SME Explorer should rank experts from your full speaker CRM, not Slack threads.
Recordings die in Brightcove after live — transcription, clips, and Create should live on the same graph as conference sessions.
Internal teams need ready-to-send packs — Dispatch routes clips and talking points to membership, chapters, and customer success without manual email chains.
Field teams miss webinar moments — Dispatch delivers tracked clip packs; Advocacy lets hosts and panelists share with attribution.
“Sessionboard has been one of our most successful investments this year, making our team more efficient and allowing us to focus on the most critical components of our events.”
“Sessionboard saves significant planning time and makes it easier than ever for speakers and sponsors to participate in our clients' events.”
“We used Sessionboard daily. It served as our source of truth for tracking speakers, sending emails, and accessing reports. The ability to set a weekly digest email was a huge time saver.”
“Honestly, I loved it! Getting everything out of the spreadsheet. It collects all the information and gives you a visual of who you might want to invite.”
Keep Brightcove mid-contract when you need to — Sessionboard owns call for papers, speaker operations, and content marketing on the program graph.
Hosted video, players, and enterprise streaming.
Brightcove as system of record for sign-ups and the live attendee experience.
Enterprise video teams with OVP libraries.
Intake forms route to owners; search experts by topic, past webinars, and engagement across all events.
One contact graph for conference faculty, webinar hosts, and panelists — assign from history, not spreadsheets.
Ingest from the runtime into Media Library — transcribe, clip, and repurpose on the webinar record.
Advocacy to hosts, speakers, and attendees; Dispatch to membership, GTM, and sales — tracked links and efficacy.
Program and session data live in Sessionboard — with optional sync to and from Brightcove.
API and import paths: Brightcove is often the playback destination, not the live webinar runtime. Sessionboard can push or link media via API and export — patterns vary by stack.
Event MCP
Sessionboard connects to the assistants your team already uses through MCP. Sessions, speakers, and committee data stay in Sessionboard — Claude, ChatGPT, and Copilot read it live.

Sessionboard already includes transcription, attendee experiences, and content marketing. Keep Brightcove when you still need a specific piece of their product.
How Sessionboard works beside Brightcove.
Usually not for live delivery. Brightcove stays the runtime while Sessionboard runs webinar requests, SME discovery, recording ingest, clips, Advocacy, Dispatch, and measurement.
Webinar request forms and SME Explorer search your org-wide speaker CRM — conference faculty, past webinar hosts, and panelists ranked by topic and engagement.
There is no shipped connector between the two products today. Recordings and presenter data typically move via Sessionboard API and import/export. Tighter sync is scoped when your program justifies it.
Advocacy activates hosts, speakers, and attendees with tracked external shares. Dispatch pushes clip packs and talking points to internal membership, GTM, and sales teams.
Sessionboard tracks shares, clicks, and influenced registrations from Advocacy and Dispatch recipients — efficacy data flows back to your CRM alongside webinar completion metrics.
Talk through your event workflow — abstracts, speakers, content, and marketing on one program graph.
