Welcome to BrandTV
If you've used Brandlive before, you'll feel right at home in BrandTV. While the interface has been refreshed, the production workflows you already know remain familiar. This guide highlights the biggest changes and introduces the new navigation so you can quickly find your way around the platform.
New Navigation
The first thing you'll notice is the updated navigation. BrandTV brings your live events, media, sites, analytics, and channel settings together into a single workspace.
The primary navigation includes:
- Home
- Live
- Media
- Sites
- Audiences
- Stats
The Settings menu can be accessed from the gear icon in the top right corner.
Tip: Most production workflows that existed in Brandlive are now located under the Live workspace.
Live
If you've produced events in Brandlive before, this workspace will feel familiar.
The Live workspace contains the event production tools you already know, including project creation, event configuration, Green Room, and broadcasting. While the interface has been modernized, the overall workflow remains the same.
Creating Projects
Creating a project is now faster than before.
Instead of completing an initial setup form, selecting a template immediately creates your project and opens the new Overview page.
From the Overview page you can configure:
- Event scheduling
- Production settings
- Cast & Crew
- Categories
- Tags
- Streaming settings
Click here for more specifics on project creation and getting started.
Project Improvements
Several common tasks have also been streamlined.
You'll notice improvements such as:
- Speaker management directly from the Overview page
- Event time zone selection during setup
- Simplified presenter and producer invitations
- Fewer clicks throughout project configuration
Series
BrandTV introduces Series, making it easier to organize related events while still managing each project independently.
Series are ideal for recurring webinars, training programs, and ongoing event schedules that share a common destination.

Green Room Updates
Green Room includes several new workflow improvements.
Segments
Segments allow you to organize large showboards into smaller sections, making complex productions easier to navigate.

Media
Once your event is complete, your content continues to live in Media.
Every recording from your live events is automatically added to your Media library, creating a centralized location for your organization's video content. You can also upload standalone videos, podcasts, and other media to build a complete content library beyond your live events.
Managing media has also become simpler. During upload, BrandTV can automatically generate titles, descriptions, summaries, transcripts, and suggested tags using AI, reducing the amount of manual organization required after content is added.

Sites
Your Media library becomes even more valuable when paired with Sites.
Sites are branded viewing experiences where you can organize your live events, recordings, playlists, and media collections into a single destination for your audience.
Whether you're creating a customer resource center, an employee learning portal, or an on-demand event library, Sites make it easy to publish and organize your content without building a custom website.

Use Stats to review:
- Attendance
- Viewer engagement
- Video performance
- Viewing trends

Settings
Channel configuration has also been reorganized.
Settings provides access to the tools used to manage your BrandTV experience, including registration, security, integrations, themes, and other channel-level configuration options.

How It All Works Together
BrandTV is designed to support the complete lifecycle of your content.
- Produce live events in Live
- Recordings are automatically added to Media
- Organize and publish content through Sites
- Measure engagement with Stats
This workflow makes it easy to extend the life of your content beyond the live event and create a lasting destination for your audience.
Although the interface has changed, the workflows you've relied on remain familiar. The updated navigation makes it easier to move from producing live events to managing your content library, publishing viewing experiences, and understanding audience engagement—all from a single platform.
