Jitsi Meet: Open Source Video Conferencing That Just Works

When it comes to video conferencing, users often face a trade-off between ease of use, privacy, and customizability. Jitsi Meet eliminates that compromise. It’s a secure, scalable, and entirely open source platform that makes connecting with others, whether for a quick meeting or a full-scale team session, fast and effortless.

Unlike many tools that require you to install heavy clients or jump through hoops just to get started, Jitsi Meet works right in your browser. There's nothing to download, no signups unless you want them, and the experience is consistent across all modern browsers. Prefer using your phone? Jitsi has native mobile apps too.

A Seamless Experience, Free Forever

You can launch a video call by simply visiting meet.jit.si. Just choose a name for your meeting and share the link, no logins required. If you do want to log in, Jitsi supports authentication via Google, Facebook, and GitHub. Whether you're catching up with friends or hosting a team stand-up, everything is encrypted and ready to go. And yes, it's completely free.

That doesn’t mean it's light on features. Far from it. Jitsi Meet offers HD audio and video out of the box, supports screen sharing, and allows users to collaborate on documents via Etherpad. During a call, you can use virtual backgrounds, send private chat messages, raise your hand to speak, and even run live polls. The attention to detail in these tools makes it a powerful option for teams and communities alike.

Built for Developers, Backed by Community

One of the standout qualities of Jitsi Meet is its developer-friendliness. It’s open source, meaning you can host your own instance or integrate its capabilities into your own app using web or native SDKs. Want to tailor the interface, tweak behaviors, or build new features? You can. The platform is yours to extend.

Despite being freely available, Jitsi Meet is no slouch when it comes to performance. It leverages cutting-edge technologies to ensure calls sound crisp, thanks to the Opus codec, and remain stable even with large groups. Security is a given, with encryption enabled by default and additional controls for those who need them.

Why Jitsi Meet?

If you value privacy, flexibility, and simplicity, Jitsi Meet offers an impressive alternative to mainstream video conferencing tools. There’s no catch, no freemium model, it’s just powerful, open technology built by a dedicated community.

Whether you're hosting a quick catch-up or embedding a video solution into your platform, Jitsi Meet is ready when you are.
