Contrast includes a dedicated Q&A experience to help you collect, manage, and answer attendee questions before and during your webinar.

## Collecting questions before the webinar

Before the webinar starts, visitors can:

- Submit their questions in advance
- View other people's questions

All questions collected here are visible in the admin. This makes it easy to:

- Understand what your audience is interested in.
- Prepare your content and structure your webinar accordingly.

## During the live webinar

Just before the webinar goes live, attendees will automatically land on the **chat** tab. This makes it easy for them to start engaging right away.

You can still:

- Use the Q&A tab for structured questions.
- Use the chat for general conversation and then mark relevant messages as questions, just like before.

## Managing questions

You can continue to manage questions as you’re used to:

- Mark chat messages from as questions.
- Review all questions in the admin.
- Use them to guide your live Q&A segment.

## Q&A Settings

In the advanced settings of your webinar, you can apply the following settings:

- Enable, or disable chat
- Enable, or disable Q&A
  
  - Set Q&A to private, or public

## HubSpot sync

All question data is synced back to HubSpot as usual. This means you can:

- See which contacts asked which questions.
- Use question data for follow-up, segmentation, and reporting.
