Smart Attendance Tracking

Use Voice Assistants and interactive questions to track participation and manage scores.

Group Mode Exclusive: This feature is only available for pre-registered Audience Groups.

How It Works

Instead of manual roll calls, Presentation Assistants uses a dynamic **Voice Assistant** system to verify attendance through random interaction. This keeps the audience engaged while automatically managing participation scores.

1. Initial Setup

When creating your Audience Group, you can define the starting state for your tracking:

  • Initial Attendance Points: Set a baseline score for all members (e.g., 5 points).
  • Trigger Word: Set a specific word that, when spoken by you, activates the Voice Assistant.

2. The Attendance Question Pool

You can prepare three types of questions to be used at different stages of your presentation:

Start Questions

Used to verify attendance during the introduction or warm-up.

Mid-way Questions

Used to check engagement during transitions in the content.

Closing Questions

Final checks to confirm the audience stayed until the end.

3. Triggering the Voice Assistant

During your live presentation, you don't need to click buttons to start a check. Simply speak the Trigger Keyword you assigned to each phase:

Start Triggers

Example Keyword: "Pick"

Activates the intro question pool.

Mid-way Triggers

Example Keyword: "Exercise"

Activates the transition question pool.

Closing Triggers

Example Keyword: "Closing"

Activates the final verification pool.

When the system hears the keyword, the Voice Assistant will:

  1. Select a random question from the corresponding pool.
  2. Randomly pick an audience member from your roster.
  3. Call out the guest's name and ask the question over the speakers.
Absence & Scoring: If the called audience member is not present, click the "Mark as Absent" button. The system will record the date on the Course Calendar and automatically deduct points from their initial attendance score.

4. Transparency & Data

For the Presenter

Our system automatically logs every check. You can Export Audience Data at any time to get a detailed CSV report of scores and attendance history.

For the Audience

Transparency is key. Audience members can view their Course Calendar to see exactly which days they were called on and whether they were marked Present or Absent.
