# Connect

Connect is our companion app that gives you live insight and push notifications about the state and progress of your transfers, transcodes, and archiving.&#x20;

Connect is available for all licenses that are eligible for updates and support. Pro licenses automatically send their data to Connect, while non-Pro licensees must manually hook up their computers to Connect in-app.

## Dashboard

Connect offers an online dashboard, available at <https://connect.hedge.video>. Log in with either the email connected to your license key(s), or your license key itself.

## Setting Up

Connect is available in OffShoot, EditReady, and Canister. We have setup guides available for each app:

* [Connect for EditReady](/editready/connect.md)
* [Connect for Canister](/canister/features/connect.md)
* [Connect for OffShoot](/offshoot/features/connect.md)

## Requirements

Connect has seen several iterations in the last 10 years, and is currently on its third. That means not every application that shows a Connect panel is still functional. These are the minimum versions required for the current Connect:

* Canister 23.2
* EditReady 24.4
* OffShoot 23.2
