Airtame launches new hybrid conferencing feature that simplifies screen sharing

Airtame, creator of the hardware-enabled SaaS platform that allows seamless collaboration in businesses and schools, today announced the launch of its new Share to Call feature that solves one of the biggest pain points experienced in hybrid meetings by allowing any person in the meeting room to instantly share their screen into a Zoom or Teams call without the hassle of joining the call from their personal device (in which they have to mute their microphone and speaker, turn off their camera, and then start sharing).

“Having to join a call with your own device just to share your screen – even though you’re in the room in which a meeting is already taking place – is a major pain point that the industry has adopted and has yet to change in a way that is truly easy and intuitive for the end-user,” said Susanne Lund, Airtame CEO. “With Airtame Share to Call, any meeting participant within the room can share content instantly rather than having to go through the unnecessary process of logging in to screen share. This new feature makes hybrid meetings truly equitable because it makes it just as easy for in-person meeting participants to share their screens as it is for remote participants.”

In addition to making screen sharing faster and easier during hybrid meetings, Share to Call eliminates audio feedback when users forget to mute before joining a call to share. It also saves battery power since the user’s computer doesn’t have to use its resources to run a conference call. Plus, it also saves bandwidth on the local network – as in-person participants no longer have to load all call contents on their devices.
