About

Jitsi Meet lets you stay in touch with all your teams, be they family, friends, or colleagues. Instant video conferences, efficiently adapting to your scale.

  • Works with any Jitsi deployment.
  • Unlimited users: There are no artificial restrictions on the number of users or conference participants. Server power and bandwidth are the only limiting factors.
  • No account needed.
  • Lock-protected rooms: Control the access to your conferences with a password.
  • Encrypted by default.
  • Experimental End-to-End Encryption support for further enhanced security.
  • High quality: Audio and video are delivered with the clarity and richness of Opus, VP8, VP9, AV1.
  • Web browser ready: No downloads are required of your friends to join the conversation. Jitsi Meet works directly within their browsers as well. Simply share your conference URL with others to get started.
  • 100% open source: Powered by awesome communities from all over the world. And your friends at 8x8.
  • Invite by pretty URLs: You can meet at the easy to remember https://MySite.com/OurConf of your choice instead of joining the hard to remember rooms with seemingly random sequences of numbers and letters in their names.
  • Support for jitsi-meet:// URLs, for linking directly to conversations.
