Connect once
Authorize Chapters once through Zoom's own secure OAuth screen — you sign in on Zoom's site, so we never see your password. From then on, every live lesson you schedule creates its own Zoom meeting automatically — no per-meeting links to copy and paste, and no separate Zoom app for you to build.

Schedule in the lesson
Add a Live lesson to any chapter, set the date, time, and duration, and Chapters creates the Zoom meeting on your account. Times are handled in your store's timezone, so there's no mental math. Edit or cancel the lesson and the change syncs straight back to Zoom.
Students join from the course
On the lesson page, students see a "Join live class" button with a countdown ticking down to the start. When it's time, one tap starts the session right there: the Zoom Meeting SDK embeds the meeting inside the course player, on your own domain.
No meeting IDs to find, no links to dig out of an email — the class simply appears where the lesson lives.

Replays
After the session ends, add the recording to your course as a video lesson — hosting and streaming are already included. Students who couldn't make the live time can still catch every minute, and those who attended can review it.
Mix formats
A live class is a lesson type, not a separate product. Mix video, text, and live Zoom lessons in the same curriculum and drag-and-drop them into any order — self-paced material between sessions, live workshops where they matter most.

Reminders
Automatic push reminders go out 30 minutes and 5 minutes before each session, and every live lesson offers a calendar (.ics) download — so a class on the schedule turns into a full room.
A push notification reaches students on the home-screen app, even when the tab is closed.
Students download an .ics file from the lesson page, so the session lands in the calendar app they already live by.
Reminders fire 30 minutes and 5 minutes before start, hitting students while there's still time to join.
