About Jitsi
Jitsi is a free, open source video conferencing project. You can join a call in the browser, run your own server, or add video calls to your own app.
What it does
You start a meeting from the browser, share your screen, and invite others with a link. People do not need an account to join a call. Organizations can host Jitsi on their own servers for full control over meetings, or use the hosted service run by the Jitsi team. Developers can also embed video calls in their own products.
Key features
- Start a video meeting in the browser with no account
- Run your own server for private meetings
- Embed video calls in your own app
- Mobile apps on the App Store, Google Play and F-Droid
- Hosted service option from the Jitsi team
Who it's for
Jitsi suits schools, developers, and privacy-minded teams who want video calls without a proprietary platform. It is also a good fit for organizations that need to keep meeting data on their own infrastructure.
Pricing and good to know
The free public site has a time limit: since October 2026, meetings on meet.jit.si are capped at 95 minutes. Self-hosting is free under the Apache-2.0 license, but you then run the server yourself. Check the Jitsi blog for changes to the public service.
