    The facts, in one place

    Who it's for
    Independent podcasters, interview hosts, and editors who need remote guests to feel present — and clean per-side local sources for the edit, not a cloud mixdown.
    What you need
    A modern browser, a camera, and a solid uplink. For a big screen, cast or mirror from your phone or PC.
    Seats
    Free up to 4 · Pro up to 12 · Cinema up to 32.
    Resolution
    Follows your hardware and network. 4K/8K is not guaranteed on every call.
    Connectivity
    Direct peer-to-peer. Free has no TURN relay, so some strict networks (hard NAT) may not connect.
    Smart TV
    Cast or mirror only. There is no Smart TV store app.
    Apps
    Native apps are in development. The browser is the path today.
    Not for
    Emergency use. See Terms.
