What is Breakout Room Software?

Breakout Room Software allows hosts to divide a large virtual meeting into smaller, isolated groups for focused discussion. It is essential for Active Learning and Workshops. Advanced tools like LiveLoop go beyond simple audio separation by providing each group with shared digital workspaces (whiteboards, notes) and allowing the host to broadcast prompts to all rooms simultaneously.

Facilitator Control & Visibility

Monitor the room without being the "creepy supervisor."

God Mode

Bird's Eye Monitoring

See what's happening everywhere at once.

  • Activity Indicators: See which rooms are talking loudly and which are silent (stuck).
  • Peek Mode: View a room's whiteboard or screen share without entering and interrupting the flow.
Broadcast

Broadcasting & Timers

Keep everyone on track.

  • Broadcast Message: Send text prompts to all rooms ("2 minutes left, start wrapping up!").
  • Countdown Timer: Display a synced countdown clock at the top of every student's screen.

In-Room Workspace

Give them the tools to actually work together.

Shared Whiteboard

Dedicated Whiteboards

A blank canvas for every group.

  • Persistence: When the breakout ends, the whiteboard isn't lost. It's saved to the main session for the group to present.
  • Multi-Edit: Everyone in the breakout room can draw and type simultaneously.
Help Request

"Ask for Help" Button

Support students when they get stuck.

  • Priority Queue: When a group clicks "Help," the host gets a notification and can jump directly into that specific room.
