Lecture Capture You'll Actually Use
Relay gives you everything you need to record videos, share and manage content, and see lasting results.
How it Works
1. Record videos
Start with a simple and intuitive lecture capture video recorder that works from any computer or mobile device with a few clicks.
2. Share and manage content
Videos you create are then uploaded to an easy-to-navigate online video library that privately stores your content.
3. See the results
After your video is uploaded track learning in real-time with Relay's built-in analytics, so you can quickly monitor student participation.
Lecture capture across your campus
Relay makes recording lectures simple and consistent — whether in a lecture hall, office, or anywhere in between. Deploy the recorder to as many classrooms as you want. Relay's collaboration with Matrox® now offers hands-off capture and scheduling.
Seamless LMS integration
Make the most of your existing Blackboard, Moodle, Canvas, Brightspace, or other learning management system that supports LTI. Students can access video content directly through the LMS with no additional log-in. Analytics and quiz scores are reported automatically to the gradebook.
Easily create accessible videos
Relay includes built-in speech-to-text to generate closed captions, or you can add closed captions to your videos. The web-based caption editor streamlines caption editing and includes an automatic ADA guidelines checker. Quickly see where to adjust captions to meet guidelines and stay compliant.

“Odessa College experienced more than ten times the adoption at one third the cost of our previous system, all within six months of introducing TechSmith Relay.”

The simplest way to let instructors create and share lecture videos
Instructors need to create videos for their courses, but get held back by expensive, complicated systems. Relay gives you an easy and cost-effective way to create and maintain videos for online learning.
Greater adoption
Get more instructors using your lecture capture solution, without the constant need for support and help from IT. Record class in the background, so instructors can focus on teaching, not creating video. Or set up automated recording in your class lectures for hands-off capture and scheduling.
Better engagement
Create an interactive online learning experience. Know if students are watching the content with quizzing and built-in analytics. Turn any PowerPoint presentation into rich, personal video content.
Improved course completion
Instructors can track student data to find strengths and weaknesses. They are able to provide quick responses to students, follow along with their performance, and guide them in the right direction.
How much is an unused video platform really costing you?
How many instructors aren't using your current solution? How many videos go unwatched because they don't engage students? How many potential videos aren't getting created because the system is too complicated? Besides the money, a lack of an easy-to-use system may already be costing you a great deal.
