Viewer Sync

Viewer Sync provides a platform-agnostic synchronization layer that coordinates playback timing across multiple clients in a shared session. It does not render media; instead it exchanges timing signals and status updates so compatible players can stay aligned.

Conceptually, each client reports its local position with a timestamp; the service computes a consensus position using majority alignment, then issues delta adjustments within a defined tolerance. If clock skew is detected, the system compensates by translating timestamps to a common reference.

Who benefits: education teams, remote training, QA teams, and groups engaging in multi-user screenings or group entertainment. The solution reduces misalignment, facilitates live commentary, and enables scalable collaboration across distances.

Core features and use cases include per-session configuration, drift monitoring, heartbeat-based recovery, conflict safeguards, and an audit log. Use cases cover classroom sessions, remote reviews, team training, and synchronized media viewing where uniform timing matters.
