Vidyard

Vidyard is a video platform for sales and marketing teams. Reps use it to record short personal videos of their screen, their camera or both, send them to prospects, and see who watched.

Vidyard's own line is "Video for every customer moment". Besides video messages, it now offers AI avatars, an automated Video Agent and business video hosting.

Who is Vidyard for?

Vidyard is built for revenue teams: sales development reps, account executives and customer success managers who want their outreach to stand out from plain text email. Marketing teams also use it to host product and demo videos on branded pages. If you only need occasional screen recordings for internal use, a general screen recorder may be enough.

What are Vidyard's main features?

Video messages and screen recording

You record your camera, your screen or both, then share the video as a link or embed it in emails and landing pages. Paid plans add a branded sharing page, calls to action and password protection. Short personal videos can be a strong part of prospecting when written text gets ignored.

Analytics

Vidyard shows who watched a video, how long they stayed and where they dropped off. On higher plans, it connects video engagement to leads, pipeline and revenue, and shows team-level performance.

AI avatars and Video Agent

Vidyard can generate personalized videos with stock or custom AI avatars. The Video Agent add-on goes further: it creates and sends personalized AI videos to prospects automatically. The free plan includes 15 AI videos to try it.

Hosting and integrations

Vidyard Hosting keeps business videos in folders with permissions, and Hubs collect them on a branded, ad-free page. Vidyard lists integrations with Salesforce, HubSpot, Gong, Marketo and Salesloft, and an MCP server for AI tools.
