While most people wind down for the winter holidays, we’ve been busy enriching your experience with Gumlet. Over the past two months, we rolled out some exciting upgrades - a new dashboard, an inclusive video player, and deeper video analytics.
New Dashboard
With over 20,000 users onboarded in the last two years, we realized our old dashboard needed an upgrade. We achieved
- Faster onboarding
- Built-in tutorial videos
- Usage insights at your fingertips
Custom Thumbnail Selection
We know thumbnails drive engagement, and the auto-generated didn’t always capture the right moment. Therefore, we made our thumbnail selection more precise.
Now, instead of choosing the first frame of a second, you can pick a frame precisely - giving you more control over how your videos appear.
Security Updates
Show user data in the dynamic watermark on your channel. If someone tries to tamper with it, the video stops playing.
Not just video security, we also improved your account security. You get email notifications every time you log in.
Video Player Experience
We made big improvements to our player experience, making it more user-friendly, flexible, and accessible.
- Expanded Native Support: Added 9 new languages, so more users can see player controls in their native language.
- Multi-language audio support: Viewers can choose audio tracks in their preferred language.
- Customization: You can remove specific controls from the player to tailor the experience to your needs.
Additional updates
- Show video title on embedded video player
- Your logo overlay is responsive to the player's size
- Auto-pause videos if multiple videos are on the same page
- Quality change loads new frames instantly in selected quality
- Transparency support in color pickers across CTA, Watermark, Player Color
Smarter Video Analytics
