Knowledge Sharing Platform

Panopto’s searchable video platform engages your workforce in a continuous cycle of sharing knowledge, no matter their time zone or location.

Enable scalable knowledge flow from leadership to frontline, and peer-to-peer

Leadership announcements, training updates, and company-wide communications reach everyone through searchable video. Employees can watch when it fits their schedule. No more lost emails or missed all-hands meetings.

Streamline content sharing with Panopto’s knowledge sharing platform

Boost Peer-to-Peer Learning with a Video-Based Knowledge Sharing Platform

Empower employees to share insights and best practices asynchronously through on-demand video

Your team members can record and share what they know without scheduling meetings. Others watch, search, and learn at their own pace. The best insights from one department become resources for the whole company.

“It’s not just a training tool. Panopto is quickly becoming our primary solution for sharing information throughout our entire organization and with our customer base.”

Preserve Critical Knowledge When Employees Exit

Retain know-how and tacit expertise before it leaves the organization

Capture retiring employees’ processes and tribal knowledge on video before they leave. Record walkthroughs, explanations, and answers to common questions. That expertise stays searchable in your library forever.

“Our teams are leveraging Panopto more and more to enable social knowledge sharing. And the reason for that is because of the unique capture capability that Panopto has to capture what’s on your screen, along with additional video from additional cameras, and bring it all together and make it easy to search and share.”

Ken Davis, Senior Learning Technology Specialist, Qualcomm Inc.

Easily build a scalable, searchable video knowledge base.

All recordings go straight into your secure video library. Panopto’s AI-powered search indexes every spoken word and on-screen text. Employees type what they need and jump to the exact moment it’s mentioned. No scrolling through hour-long videos to find a two-minute answer.

Video Management

Organize thousands of videos with folders, categories, and custom metadata. Control who can view, edit, or share each piece of content. Your library stays structured as it grows.

Video Tagging

Add custom tags to make content easier to find. Tag by department, topic, skill level, or any category that matters to your organization. Search results get more relevant over time.

Subscriptions

Employees can subscribe to channels or topics they care about. They get notifications when new relevant content gets uploaded. No one misses updates in their area.

Video Analytics

See which knowledge base videos get watched most and where viewers drop off. Track completion rates and engagement across departments. Find gaps in your content library.

Mobile Apps

Record and share knowledge from anywhere using iOS or Android apps. Field teams can capture processes on-site. Office workers can access the knowledge base from their phones.

Brand Customization

Add your company logo, colors, and branding to the video portal. Create a knowledge hub that looks like part of your existing intranet. Employees recognize it as your platform.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do employees find specific information in hours of video content?

Panopto’s AI indexes every spoken word and on-screen text automatically. Employees search like they would in Google and jump straight to the relevant moment. No manual tagging required.

Can we control who sees which knowledge base videos?

Yes. Set permissions at the folder, channel, or individual video level. Restrict sensitive content to specific departments while keeping general training available company-wide.

What happens to knowledge when employees leave?

Record exit interviews or knowledge transfer sessions before departure. Those videos stay in your library with full search functionality. New hires can access that expertise years later.

Does Panopto work with our existing intranet or SharePoint?

Panopto integrates with SharePoint, most intranets, and learning management systems. Embed videos directly into your existing pages. Employees don’t need to visit a separate platform.

How do we encourage employees to actually share knowledge?

Make recording easy with one-click screen capture and automatic uploads. Let employees subscribe to relevant channels so they see when peers share useful content. Low friction means more participation.

Can remote teams contribute to the knowledge base?

Remote employees record from anywhere using desktop or mobile apps. Videos upload automatically to your centralized library. Geographic distance doesn’t create knowledge silos.
