Abstract
The technology includes a system to assist and enrich a videoconference session with metacommunication channels provided by a metacommunication service. The metacommunication service is hosted by a server of the system to function across different videoconference platforms. The system streams a metacommunication channel to multiple client devices of participants of a videoconference session. The metacommunication channel is configured to generate a video feed that modifies a camera feed of the videoconference session based on metacommunicative signals. The system generates first metacommunicative signals based on an output of a software application. The system enables a device connected to the videoconference session to access the server of the system and cause the metacommunicative service to generate second metacommunicative signals. The system updates the metacommunication channel based on the first metacommunicative signals and the second metacommunicative signals.
