Live formats
Who hosts on Phensy
If the conversation is the point — not the slideshow — Phensy is built for the way you already work.
Workshops & training
Bring a small group together to learn a skill. The AI co-host transcribes everything, fact-checks technical details on the fly, runs comprehension polls between sections, and emails every attendee a clean recap of the steps you covered.
AMAs & live Q&A
Open a table on a topic you know well and let an audience steer it. The Q&A copilot surfaces the best questions, deduplicates the repeats, and lets you sound thoughtful even when forty people are typing at once.
Live lessons & tutoring
One teacher, a small group of students, a private table. The recap email doubles as lesson notes for parents and students. Pro hosts get 20-seat tables, unlimited length, and the full toolkit.
Office hours & coaching
For consultants, coaches, and independent experts who sell their time. Audience drops in with questions, you answer, the AI captures the substance so nothing important leaves the room unrecorded.
Masterclasses & paid events
Longer-form, ticketed deep-dives. Sell access in advance, deliver live, send everyone a recap with the highlights and any references. Phensy takes a 15% platform fee; the rest is yours.
Live podcasts & expert panels
Bring an audience into a conversation you'd normally have alone — or with a guest. The fact-check feature keeps the conversation grounded as it ranges, and the recap is what listeners come back for.

Open or private. Free or ticketed.

?
Q&A Copilot
Surfaces the best questions and suggests sharp answers.
▦
Polls & Prompts
Reads the room and proposes polls at decision points.
The co-host isn't a chatbot in the corner. It's working continuously in the background, the way a producer would — transcribing, pattern-matching what's important, and surfacing it without interrupting the flow of the conversation. You can ignore it entirely and your session still works; turn to it and it helps you find your place, remember a name, fact-check a date, or queue the next question for the next quiet moment.
Every Pro session ends with the AI sending each attendee a clean recap email — key points, who said what, decisions reached, and a list of references for any fact-checked claims. That recap is often what turns a one-time attendee into a returning one.

Frequently asked
Questions before you start
For host-specific questions (ticketing, fees, recording), see the full pricing & FAQ page.
What exactly is Phensy?
Phensy is a live video discussion platform built for small audiences and topic communities. You open a "table" on any topic, people gather round, and an AI co-host quietly handles the production work — running recaps, fact-checking claims, organizing questions, and proposing polls — so you can focus on the conversation. Hosting is free to start, or $20/month for Pro; attendees always join free.
Is Phensy free to join?
Yes. Joining a table is always free. You don't need to subscribe to listen in, ask a question, or even host your first session — Free hosts get 5-seat tables up to 60 minutes long and the Q&A copilot. Hosts upgrade to Pro when they want bigger rooms, private tables, the full AI suite, or ticketed sessions.
Do I need to download anything to use Phensy?
No. Phensy runs in your browser — Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge. Audio and video work without installs. Your browser will ask permission for camera and microphone the first time, and that's it. Mobile browsers work too; a dedicated mobile app is on the roadmap.
What kinds of live sessions work best on Phensy?
Anything where the conversation is the point — not the slideshow. Workshops, AMAs, live podcast recordings, language lessons, coaching office hours, masterclasses, book clubs, expert panels. Phensy is built for small-to-medium live audiences (5–20 people depending on tier) and is not a great fit for webinars-to-a-crowd or async on-demand classes.
How private is a session on Phensy?
Public tables are listed and joinable via shared link. Private tables (a Pro feature) are invite-only and never surface in any directory. Either way, audio and video stream through self-hosted Jitsi infrastructure; only the AI features (recap, fact-check, polls) talk to Phensy's backend, and transcripts live only as long as you need them for the recap.
Where is Phensy based, and how is data handled?
Phensy is run from Sweden and built GDPR-compliant from the start. Privacy policy and terms cover the specifics — including sub-processors, data retention, and your right to request deletion. Transcripts and recap data are deleted on a schedule you control.
Phensy a chat?
In British pubs, you don't schedule a meeting. You say "fancy a chat?" — and that's enough. Open a table for your team, your friends, or anyone — Phensy listens, remembers, and keeps the conversation alive.
Your first table is free — and Pro is free for your first 7 days.
