July Product Update

Read about our latest features and changes

WHAT’S NEW FOR YOUR AUDIENCE

Wider Desktop Player

Along the path of a new desktop player UX, we’ve released a wider version of the current one, which now takes up the entire bottom of the browser window. This gives video more screen real estate and sets the stage for new icon and functional enhancements.

WHAT’S NEW FOR ADMINS

Coming Soon: New Embedded Experiences

We’ve continued to work hard on our embedded media streaming experiences, giving you the ability to embed entire shows in a third-party application, automatically refreshing when you publish new episodes. Since these embeds use our centralized SSO model, they are user aware and will accrue all plays to your uStudio program. Stay tuned.

One Show For All Media

We’ve made changes on the back-end of our platform to allow Shows to carry both video and audio episodes. With this improvement in place, we’ll soon update the Show creation page in our management console by removing the need to specify a show as audio or video.

Improved Table Sorting in Content Analytics

We’ve refined how tables sort in the content analytics section of the management console, making it easier to view content engagement and play counts. This update helps you quickly surface the episodes that made the biggest impact during the period.

Smarter, Faster Support with AI Agent

We’ve introduced our new AI agent, now live in the admin interface to help you get quick answers and guidance right when you need it. It’s available 24/7 and designed to make your uStudio experience even smoother. Rest assured, our full team remains committed to supporting your needs. This is simply a new avenue to help you get the right help faster.

TIPS AND TRICKS

Content Engagement Data to Drive Smart Improvements

Wondering how your episodes are landing with your audience? Content engagement data gives you a clear view into how people interact with your content. You can see where listeners drop off, where they replay, and what holds their attention.

This insight helps you make targeted, specific changes to future episodes based on real behavior. Learn how to use this data to sharpen your storytelling and boost results.
