Timer for WebinarJam
WebinarJam's countdown is for waiting viewers, not live presenters.
The presenter opens the stage link for a real, running countdown during the webinar. The producer keeps the timer and private cues on a separate control link, alongside WebinarJam's own Control Panel.
Product Demo
RunCue
A live presenter countdown, not just elapsed broadcast time.
RunCue works alongside WebinarJam in a separate browser tab. It does not install as a WebinarJam integration or access your account, webinar, or attendee data.

| Timer | Speaker visibility | Producer control | Cue context | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| WebinarJam Countdown Page | Viewers only, before the webinar starts -- not visible to presenters or during the live session | Branding options, but nothing to run or adjust once the webinar is live | No cue notes; it is a waiting-room page, not an interactive timer | Giving early viewers something to watch while they wait for the webinar to start |
| RunCue browser room | Separate stage and audience links showing a live, adjustable countdown throughout the webinar | Separate control link with private producer cues across every segment, nothing to install | Cue cards for every segment plus Reset between rehearsal and live events | WebinarJam webinars with a run of show and presenters who need to see time remaining in the current segment |

FAQ
Using RunCue with WebinarJam
Does WebinarJam have a live presenter timer or show-clock?
No. WebinarJam's own help center documents its countdown timer as a pre-webinar Countdown Page for attendees who arrive early, and its Control Panel article lists chat, live injections, and attendee controls with only an elapsed broadcast-duration stat -- not a segment countdown or private cue board for presenters.
What does WebinarJam's countdown page actually do?
It's a holding page shown to attendees who open the live event link before the webinar starts, counting down to start time. It disappears once the webinar goes live and was never meant for presenters.
Why use RunCue beside WebinarJam?
Use RunCue when your presenter needs a real, running countdown during the webinar and the producer wants private cue notes across multiple segments -- independent of WebinarJam's pre-webinar waiting page.
Does RunCue connect to my WebinarJam account?
No. RunCue runs in a separate browser tab and does not access your WebinarJam account, webinar, or attendee data.
Is RunCue free?
No. There's no permanent free plan. A 15-minute, no-card trial runs the full timer, then Pro is $19/mo and Team is $49/mo.
Is there a trial?
Yes -- and there's no rush to set it up. You get up to 7 days to build the run of show before any clock starts; the 15-minute live trial begins only once you press Start, and it includes the live timer, separate role links, cues, Reset, and segment editing before the room locks.
