Jitsi Meet: self-hosted video conferencing, no third-party account
No participant cap set by a vendor, no account for your clients to create, no meeting data passing through a third party. What Jitsi Meet actually changes once self-hosted.
Jitsi Meet is the most widely deployed open source video conferencing software in the world — the public instance at meet.jit.si serves millions of meetings, but it's the self-hosted version that actually changes things for a business.
What self-hosting changes
On an instance you own, there's no participant cap set by a pricing tier, no account for external contacts to create (a link is enough), and no audio/video stream passing through a third party's infrastructure. For a consulting firm, a legal department, or any sensitive exchange, that's the difference between "trusting a vendor's privacy policy" and "controlling where the data goes".
What it takes technically
Jitsi relies on several components (prosody for XMPP signaling, jicofo for conference orchestration, jvb for media routing) that need to be sized for the expected number of simultaneous participants — the kind of tuning we do as part of Trustinstance, not a default install left running unsupervised.
Where it fits
At Trustiatis, Jitsi Meet is one of the services in the Trustcollab block, with authentication tied to your internal directory rather than a public account, so only authorized people can start a meeting.
