About Whereby
Whereby is a browser-based video calling service for individuals, teams and product builders. It runs without a separate app download and uses permanent room links that you can reuse.

You create a meeting room and share its link, and people join from their browser. Rooms can include chat, file sharing, screen sharing and a virtual whiteboard. Developers can create rooms through an API and embed video calls in their own platform. The service says it stays reliable on low bandwidth and on mobile devices.
