Ritual

Kickoff (2–3 min)

Host hits the timer, everyone shares one goal in chat or on camera, and the RoomSwitcher stays visible for late arrivals.

Ritual

Sprint (25–35 min)

Participants mute, optionally turn cameras on, and track progress via tasks + streak overlays.

Ritual

Break (5–7 min)

React in chat, stretch, and line up the next sprint. Hosts can play a focus track or surface a poll.

Etiquette

Keep every room welcoming

  • Keep headphones on while others speak; use push-to-talk if you’re mid-sprint.
  • Drop your task in chat so co-studiers feel invited to check in.
  • Use RoomDiscoveryPanel to welcome newcomers—never share private details on stream.

Setup templates

Solo warm-up

Start in your Zen room to test camera + mic, then open RoomSwitcher when you’re ready to invite others.

Class cohort

Pin a classroom room (for example, the Biology 101 room) and reuse it before exams so everyone knows where to meet.

Community drop-in

Share the live rooms page in Discord so members can see when a Study With Me room has momentum.

FAQ

What is a Study With Me?

A live focus session where people work side-by-side using short sprints, optional camera intros, and supportive chat.

Do I need to be on camera?

No. Cameras are optional. You can run audio-only, emoji check-ins, or text-only accountability.

How long are the sprints?

Most groups start with 25 minutes on / 5 off. Study Spaces lets you set any duration and carry it into the next sprint.

How do I keep it safe?

Use invite links with guidelines, keep RoomDiscoveryPanel curated, and lean on host controls to mute or remove if needed.

How many people is ideal?

4–10 creates enough presence without overpowering chat. For larger groups, split across multiple rooms or Tracks.

Can I embed Study With Me elsewhere?

Link to your room URL—try the Study With Me room—or embed a preview via your community portal; the canonical room stays on Study Spaces for security.

What if someone is disruptive?

Hosts can mute, remove, or lock the room. Use campaign parameters to keep share links traceable.
