Advanced playlists
Overview
Advanced Playlists are add-on Walnut layouts designed to help teams create more polished, landing-page-style content hubs that go beyond the standard Playlist experience.
Instead of presenting content in a stacked player format, Advanced Playlists let you build a more modular destination that can combine demos, videos, PDFs, dashboards, documents, and embedded content into a branded, flexible experience.
Walnut currently offers two Advanced Playlist layouts: Sales Hub for pre-sales workflows and Customer Hub for post-sales engagement.
Advanced Playlists are built for teams that want their shared content to feel more like a destination than a simple content player, making them especially useful for polished pre-sales hubs, customer-facing resource centers, and richer multi-asset experiences.
Before You Start
Before creating an Advanced Playlist, make sure the feature is available in your workspace and that you have the right role access.
Key Features
Advanced Playlists are designed to support richer, more flexible content hubs than a standard Playlist alone.
- Dynamic section types: Build content-rich layouts using Walnut demos, PDFs, videos, Google Docs, Office 365 files, dashboards, and custom embedded content.
- Landing-page-style layouts: Create experiences that feel more like a branded microsite or hub than a stacked player.
- Full-width embeds: Display documents, dashboards, and external tools in a more immersive format.
- Flexible section management: Add, remove, duplicate, and customize pre-built layout sections as needed.
- Broader media support: Combine interactive demos with supporting content in a single destination.

Choose Your Layout
Walnut currently offers two Advanced Playlist layouts, each designed for a different stage of the customer journey.
Sales Hub
The Sales Hub is built for pre-sales engagement. It helps teams create polished, modular hubs that bring together product demos, technical overviews, supporting assets, videos, success stories, and competitive content in one place.
This layout works especially well for Solution Consultants, Sales Engineers, and other pre-sales teams that need a reusable destination they can tailor across prospects, verticals, or deal stages.
With support for rich media, embedded content, and broader document types, the Sales Hub is ideal when you want the experience to feel more like a branded destination than a traditional Playlist.
Best for:
- Pre-sales content hubs
- Solution overviews
- Technical evaluation support
- Reusable buyer-facing resource centers
Customer Hub
The Customer Hub is built for post-sales engagement. It helps Customer Success teams package usage data, success metrics, growth opportunities, demos, videos, documents, and dashboards into a more polished customer-facing hub.
This layout is especially useful for QBR-style experiences, customer education hubs, and ongoing success programs where you want a more structured, branded destination for customers to revisit over time.
By combining multiple content types in one place, the Customer Hub helps teams deliver a stronger post-sales experience that is easier to scale and easier for customers to navigate.
Best for:
- Quarterly Business Reviews
- Customer success hubs
- Adoption and education workflows
- Growth and expansion conversations
