A new generation of automated webinar software where the chat layer is actually intelligent. Presentr challenges eWebinar with native Claude integration and personalised AI follow-ups.

The automated webinar category had been stuck in a generational pattern. The original platforms (EverWebinar, EasyWebinar) ran the playbook of recorded video plus scripted chat bubbles for a decade. The audience caught up. By 2024 most B2B viewers could spot fake chat within the first ninety seconds, and engagement rates collapsed accordingly.
Presentr is one of a small group of platforms attempting to solve that problem at the chat layer. Built in the UK and powered natively by Anthropic's Claude, Presentr delivers automated webinars where the AI chat actually responds to attendees in real time using the webinar's own transcript as context.
We have evaluated Presentr against the leading platforms in the category and consider it a credible alternative to eWebinar for marketing teams whose primary pain point is engagement quality.
Real AI Chat, Not Scripted Bubbles
The product's central differentiator is that its AI is contextually aware of the video being watched. If an attendee asks "does this integrate with HubSpot?" mid-session, Presentr's chat answers using the actual demo content. When a question falls outside the model's confident answer range, the chat escalates to a human host with a notification, and the attendee receives an automated message that a follow-up is coming.
This is meaningfully different from competitors that rely on either scripted chat bubbles on a timer or AI chat without genuine escalation logic.
AI-Personalised Follow-Up Emails
The follow-up email layer is the second feature that materially separates Presentr. Each post-session email is generated by the AI based on the specific attendee's chat questions, interaction responses, and watch time. The result reads more like a one-to-one sales follow-up than a templated mass send. For top-of-funnel webinars feeding a sales team, this is a meaningful conversion lever.
Pricing Built for Mid-Market Teams
Presentr's pricing structure (£67/mo Starter, £135/mo Growth, £254/mo Scale) sits below several US-built competitors and includes unlimited team members on every tier, which is unusual in the category. White-label is bundled at the Scale tier, where many competitors charge it as an add-on.
