EverWebinar is designed to deliver webinar presentations automatically, without requiring you to be present.
Instead of hosting a live event at a fixed time, you configure an experience that attendees can join based on your chosen schedule.

EverWebinar vs. WebinarJam
WebinarJam and EverWebinar are closely related, but they serve different purposes.
- WebinarJam is used for live webinars
- EverWebinar is used for automated webinars
The key difference is how the event is delivered:
- In WebinarJam, attendees join a shared live session at a scheduled time
- In EverWebinar, attendees join a pre-configured experience that simulates a live event
This affects how scheduling, replays, and attendee interactions work, and makes EverWebinar ideal for:
- Running webinars on autopilot
- Delivering a consistent presentation
- Allowing attendees to join at different times
- Scaling your webinar without being live
