After signing in with Vidcast, you'll always begin on your personal homepage. This page is 100% curated for you and your account.

Your Homepage

As you scroll down the page, you'll notice a few specific video feeds

  • Recommended for you - This feed is generated for you using our own recommendation engine. It chooses the most relevant videos for you from your organization, based on previous recordings you've watched. So the more vidcasts you view, the better the recommendations you'll see here. Note that the rotating feed at the very top of your page is highlighting videos from this same "Recommended for you" category.

  • Latest videos shared with you - Here you'll find videos that have been specifically shared with you. To find out more regarding how to share with and restrict videos to specific users, check out our Share your Vidcast guide.

  • Trending in my company - This is where you'll see the most popular videos within your organization. These are generated for you based on their number of views, comments, shares, and reactions.

  • Recent videos - And last but not least, this is where you'll find the videos you've viewed most recently.


Besides the curated video feeds, you'll also find links to other sections of Vidcast on the far left side
