How It Works
Four simple steps to your first live office hour
Tap 'Go Live' from your phone or computer. No studio setup needed. Your classroom, home office, or coffee shop works perfectly.
Beneath the Surface
How This Actually Works on SBAU
You Tap 'Go Live' on Your Phone
No studio. No Zoom account. Just open SBAU, tap 'Go Live', and you're broadcasting your office hours in under 30 seconds.
SBAU Generates a Private Link
Toggle 'Invite Only' and the platform creates a unique shareable URL. Paste it in Canvas, Google Classroom, or email — students click and join instantly.
Students Watch & Ask Questions Live
They join via the link (no app needed), watch you explain, and type questions in the real-time chat. You answer live. That's the whole flow.
No app download required for viewers · Works on any smartphone.
Perfect For
Live Office Hours
Hold real-time Q&A sessions outside class without scheduling a Zoom call.
Lecture Reviews
Walk through confusing topics before exams so students watch and ask questions as you explain.
Study Session Reminders
Share your invite link in your LMS so students get notified the moment you go live.
Pop-up Help Sessions
Go live spontaneously for 15 minutes when students need last-minute help before a test.
Find Me
Your stream broadcasts your location. Students can see exactly where you're holding office hours and get walking directions to come to you.
