How Pencil Spaces solves it

A student joins from a kitchen with a blender running. Noise cancellation filters it out, and the tutor hears only his voice. Midway through, his video stutters, and Connection Status shows his connection is the weak one, with a fix he can try.

The call is part of the Space, so nobody juggles a separate video app. The explanation the tutor was halfway through doesn’t get lost, and neither of them ends the hour tired from repeating themselves.

  • Noise CancellationAvailableAI noise cancellation and echo reduction filter out background sound, so everyone hears each other, not the room.
  • Connection StatusAvailableConnection Status shows each person’s connection quality live, with automatic fixes and guides when something goes wrong.
  • Audio & VideoAvailablePencil Spaces has live audio and video built into the Space, so the whole lesson happens in one place.

The usual way

Tutors ask students to mute, unmute and rejoin.

A tip you can use today

Use a headset with a microphone, and ask students to use headphones.

See it in a live Space.
