Considering it says it was written with Claude AI, can you comment on the how good the security is? Of both the video calls, and also all the content it stores?

Is there a single switch to turn off the "it remembers everything" part? I imagine a lot of people might want a simple self hostable Zoom replacement that does not memorize the calls.

Also, this is amazing. Did you vibe code a Jitsi replacement? Very cool that this is possible.

For video calls, I'm using LiveKit which has end-to-end encryption (same WebRTC stack as zoom/meets). Also, we don't store video calls, the transcripts are stored for AI queries, but can be easily deleted from user side.

Rn, there is no single switch, but it can be easily added!

Haha thank you, basically got frustrated with existing options and figured how hard could it be? So decided to give it a shot :)

Hi Everyone! I built an open-source video conferencing platform that actually remembers your meetings. Think Zoom + Granola!

Core features: - AI assistant that is present in every call and answers questions about meetings. - Real-time transcription and AI-generated summaries + tasks. - High quality video conferencing with LiveKit.

Why? Zoom's AI copilot doesn't work. Google Meet has zero memory. I wanted something intelligent, hackable, and truly open.

Feedback and contributions welcome!

Why did you decide to make this?

Is the tool able to remember everything about all your meetings live on a call?

All the existing video conferencing platforms are dumb and without memory + there is no good open-source platform!

Yes, it remembers your past meetings + has access to live meeting transcripts.
