Everything Seats Edge sees and hears.
One camera and one microphone become a live view, a dashboard, a report and a clip list. Here is every part of the system and every measure it produces.
Your audience, read in real time.
The live view shows your room with a ring on every head, colored by what each person is doing. It updates every second, and the counts beside it update with it.
- Seven states at a glance: engaged, reading or taking notes, head down, phone out, hands raised, standing and turned away.
- Rings, not faces. The screen marks heads; nothing is saved and no one is named.
- Live on 4K video on a single booth computer, with the room's sound analyzed alongside.
A dashboard for every kind of room.
Each room type has its own profile, its own headline number and its own dashboard. Choose one to see the full version with sample data.
Sample data for illustration.
Reports, moments and clips.
The one-page report
Ready when the room empties: headline numbers for your kind of event, the curve through the whole event and the moments worth a second look. Share it as a link or a PDF.
Lined up to what was said
A live transcript runs alongside the measures, so every peak and dip points at the words, song or slide that caused it.
Moments that held and lost the room
The strongest and weakest stretches, chosen only when they truly stand out. A steady event gets a steady report, never invented highlights.
Clip list
The biggest reactions with in and out times, ranked by strength, ready for whoever edits your video.
Trends and comparisons
This event against your own average, week over week, service against service and room against room, measured the same way every time.
Live alerts
A nudge when the room passes a threshold you set: open the overflow, watch the front of the floor, the room is emptying early.
Every room starts with a check-up.
The camera angle decides what can be measured. Before go-live, a short test run tells you exactly what your room supports and how to improve it.
- Camera position: front and high, eye level or behind the audience, with what each one can and cannot see.
- Head size and lighting: whether the back rows are big enough and bright enough to read.
- Screens and motion: lit screens, camera shake and anything else that could confuse the count.
- Plain-language fixes: "Move the camera to the front" beats a page of settings.
- Optional expert review: share a short setup clip with our team and we tune the system to your room, then delete the clip.
| Check | Result | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Camera position | Front, high. Faces readable to row 22. | Good |
| Head size, back row | 31 px. Small but readable. | Good |
| Lighting | Even. Balcony slightly dark during worship. | Watch |
| Camera motion | Steady mount, no shake. | Good |
| Screens in view | Side screen masked from the count. | Good |
| Crowd microphone | Hears the room, not the PA. | Good |
Measures your room supports
Big rooms, one honest count.
Large rooms need more than one camera, and people seen by two cameras must not be counted twice. Seats Edge places every person on your floor plan and merges the views there.
- Fixed seating: each section belongs to the camera that sees it best, so no seat is ever counted twice.
- Standing crowds: two cameras that place a person on the same spot of the floor count as one.
- No identity matching. Cameras agree on a person by position alone, never by face or clothing.
- Ten-minute setup per camera: mark a few points in the camera view and on the floor plan.
Overlapping cameras, counted once
On a public seven-camera research data set, simply adding the cameras up counted more than four times the people actually there. Merged on the floor plan, the count landed within 10% of the true number.
Internal testing, 2026, on the WILDTRACK multi-camera data set.
What we measure, and where it matters.
The same signal can mean different things in different rooms. Each room profile decides which measures count as engaged and which lead the report.

Simple hardware, set up in an afternoon.
A 4K camera
Facing the audience, mounted high at the front. Big rooms add one per zone.
A crowd microphone
Placed to hear the room rather than the stage, for laughter, applause and singing.
A booth computer
A small, quiet computer that runs the analysis on site. No video leaves the building.
A screen, if you like
Watch the live view in the booth, or just read the report afterward on any device.
