Meet with your coaching clients face-to-face directly from Kajabi using built-in live video. No third-party video tools required.
Kajabi's Live Video is available with Course Products, manually scheduled coaching programs, and Coaching Products using Kajabi Scheduler. If you have connected Calendly or a custom link to help you schedule your program, you will not be able to Go Live with Kajabi.
To be eligible to use the Built-in Live Video feature, you can set up your Coaching Product or edit an existing Coaching Product with the Kajabi Scheduler or as a manually scheduled program.
Client experience
With the combined power of Course Products and Coaching Products along with Kajabi's Built-in Live Video, your clients can experience an engaging, interactive program developed to meet their needs and help you deliver value during your video sessions.
The Coaching and Course Products are Product types that Kajabi offers to help you develop a world-class online presence. With Products, your customers can purchase the connected Offer to access your carefully curated program.
After your customer has purchased your Offer, they can access their purchased product from their Library.
If you have set up the Coaching Product to schedule manually, you will need to schedule each session manually for each coaching client.
When the date and time of your coaching session arrive, your client can enter their product and click Join Session:
During the live video session, your client will have video settings that they can update to adjust their camera, microphone, sound, video quality, and background effects. Learn more about each setting.
Add to Calendar for Coaching Sessions
The "Add to Calendar" feature lets members save upcoming coaching sessions to their personal calendar. Calendar links are automatically included in confirmation emails and displayed on member-facing pages.
Where Members See Calendar Links
Coaching session emails — Links appear alongside the existing ICS attachment
Member-facing coaching pages — Links are displayed on the session detail view
How Calendar Links Work
Each calendar link contains a secure, time-limited token tied to the coaching session.
Important:
Calendar links expire after 1 year from generation.
This feature is separate from Cronofy calendar sync, which handles coach availability and session booking. "Add to Calendar" is for members saving confirmed sessions to their personal calendar.
Add to Calendar / ICS is available for Coaching sessions and Events — not for Cohort Course live sessions
