Hello GoTo Webinar Community! In addition to the new registration page making its debut in September, we have another update to highlight. In-Player Transcripts for GoTo Webinar Recordings To enhance your experience when watching recordings of GoTo Webinar sessions, we’re excited to introduce transcripts directly within the video player. Previously, transcripts were only available outside the video, making them inaccessible during full-screen playback. With this update, you can now follow along with the spoken content as you watch—making it easier to engage with your videos. This improvement also advances our commitment to accessibility, helping us make GTW sessions available to a wider audience. Details Below are the main changes that are being introduced: Registrant View: Transcripts are now embedded in recorded videos viewed by session registrants. Organizer View: Transcripts are also available when organizers play GTW recordings from their dashboard. Enhanced Transcript Format for managing large content: Transcripts are divided into manageable segments for better readability. Each segment is no longer than 300 characters. Each segment covers up to 10 seconds of audio. Segments are split at natural language boundaries for a smooth reading experience. Note: This release is available for all GoTo Webinar users. Currently, it supports Tablet and Desktop devices. Mobile device support is planned for a follow-up release in early Q4. Please share your questions, comments and feedback below.12Views0likes0CommentsWhat's new with GoTo Connect - September 2025
Hello GoTo Connect Community! I'm happy to share the latest GoTo Connect releases, featuring powerful new enhancements designed to streamline your communications and elevate your team’s productivity. Sentiment + Topic for All Calls Allows you to use AI-powered sentiment and topic analysis on every recorded call, enabling teams to proactively identify trends, coach staff, and improve overall customer experience without manually reviewing transcripts or recordings. This is available for Advanced Reporting add-on customers (CX, Auto CX, and Contact Center Complete have Advanced Reporting add-on as part of the bundle). Improved Inbox AI features Allows you to access enhanced AI-powered conversation summaries and sentiment analytics across more plans and digital channels, with increased accuracy, transparency, and control. This includes upgrading our AI features across the Shared Inbox and SMS campaigns and making them available to more customers (now for CE Pro and CX). GoTo Mobile: Shared Inbox – Mark Conversation as Read/Unread Allows customers using GoTo Mobile to easily mark conversations in their shared inbox as read or unread. This highly-requested feature boosts team collaboration and makes it simple to track which messages need attention on the go. Contact Center, CX, and Customer Engagement: SMS Campaigns Now Available in the Inbox SMS campaigns are now available right in the inbox for our Customer Engagement, CX, and—newly added—Contact Center customers! Moving campaigns to the inbox will eventually replace the old Engage experience, making it easier to discover and launch campaigns. Attendant Console – Company Contact Groups Company Contact Groups, is now available to all Attendant Console users! This much-anticipated feature, our most requested since the attendant console’s initial release, empowers users to create customizable contact groups. With Company Contact Groups, you can easily organize contacts by department, location, call queue, or any category that best suits your workflow. The improved filtering capabilities allow for more precise presence monitoring, faster call routing, and improved management of frequently contacted teams. Chat Assistant “Close Conversation” Node The chat assistant just got a lot more versatile! We’ve made it possible for chat assistants to completely resolve conversations without transferring to a human agent. Inbox managers and CC admins can now configure a new ending node that automatically closes out a conversation with a clear, branded message. This means you get immediate closure and it will be routed properly the next time they message in. Conversations closed by the chat assistant now show in the Resolved Conversations board. Set a phone number to recover your password One more important feature! Now, you can add a single recovery phone number to your account, making it easier to reset or recover your login password if needed. For more information, including set-up, see this article.

What Went Live? The Rescue team is thrilled to announce that DRAP (Device-Based Restricted Access Package) - Phase 1 is now live! Part of the new paid Security Add-on for Rescue, this feature allows customers to protect any endpoints ensuring that only the approved Rescue account can establish a support session. Customer Use Case: For customers who want to protect any device from unauthorized Rescue sessions in any scenario, regardless of how they connect to the internet. BYOD? Remote worker? In office worker? On the VPN? Off the VPN? On a hotspot? In the field? On the coffee shop wifi? DRAP has you covered. Customer Benefit: Once the DRAP component is installed via .msi, only sessions from the Rescue account that installed the DRAP component are authorized to connect. Any other Rescue account attempting to start any type of session with Rescue will be rejected. The feature protects against scammers and social engineering tactics where malicious/unauthorized agents attempt to trick users into granting access by "using the support tool they're familiar with" Competitors like TeamViewer and Beyond Trust offer ways to protect devices that often require hardware appliances, complex network/software configurations, and lack flexibility to protect devices in various scenarios (e.g. off VPN or not fully configured) With DRAP, its as simple as installing the MSI. For more information about this exciting feature and the Rescue paid Security add-on, please reach out to your Account Manager, Customer Success Manager, or comment on the thread! What's Next? Support for Mac protection Protect against older applet versions (edge use case) Release a technician restriction that ensures technicians can only provide support to devices with DRAP installed.

Many organizations are exploring how AI can be used to evaluate 100% of queue calls for quality assurance. However, questions often arise regarding oversight—both of the AI’s decisions and supervisors’ roles in the process. With recent usability enhancements in our AI Quality Management features, supervisors can now review, adjust, and validate AI-generated call evaluations. This creates multiple layers of oversight, helping to ensure fairness and transparency in the quality management process. These tools make it easier to identify opportunities for coaching, maintain high standards in customer interactions, and support trust in the evaluation process among teams. Additionally, these enhancements are designed to support compliance requirements and provide comprehensive reporting, allowing HR departments better visibility and confidence in the use of AI for performance management. Key Details on Scoring Improvements: In the past, results from unwanted evaluations were included in overall dashboard metrics, and there was no visibility into which evaluations received a human review. With new discard/approve options and filtration users enjoy cleaner views into results. Actions for fast acceptance of scores Convenience filter for yes/no question scores Streamlined feedback UI for cleaner workflow Visibility into the user who last changed a score, on hover In-app information for clarity on how feedback is used by the system Ability to formally approve or reject evaluations New approval and discard workflows Confirmation and visibility into who approved/discarded Ability to undo/update statuses New filtration to analyze evaluations by status More details on AI Quality Management can be found here. If you’d like to learn more or enable these tools, you can visit the GoTo Connect self-service portal and add AI Quality Management to your existing GoTo Contact Center Complete product.

We are excited to introduce a new feature this week: Transcript Localization, which leverages AI to automatically generate transcripts in native/local languages as selected by the Host for cloud-based recordings in GoTo Meetings. Now, Whether it’s a crucial business meeting, a conference call, or a brainstorming session, you can capture every word spoken accurately even when the conversation is in non-english (in native/local) language. Please note, The above option works well when the entire meeting is in one language only. We have seen quality compromises and unnecessary translations in case there are multiple languages being used in a meeting. We have also introduced a new Beta option i.e. Adaptive which automatically detects the transcription language from the initial Audio (Origin) clip and uses the same language to generate transcripts respectively. How to change transcription language ? Click on Profile logo (top-right corner) Click on Settings In Settings, Navigate to Meetings → Content section Use Drop-Down to select appropriate Transcription language Find out more about this feature here.
