About MiroTalk
MiroTalk P2P is an open-source video conferencing platform that uses direct peer-to-peer WebRTC connections between participants. You host it on your own server, and people join meeting rooms from a browser with no downloads and no time limits. It is meant for teams and communities that want private real-time communication they control.
Features include unlimited rooms, screen sharing, text chat, a collaborative whiteboard, recording and general collaboration tools. It works across common browsers and platforms, can be deployed with a Docker image in minutes, and has a live demo, documentation and a Discord community. The software is JavaScript based.
MiroTalk P2P is licensed under AGPL-3.0. Because media flows peer to peer, it keeps traffic off a central media server, which suits small groups. It fits small teams, schools and communities who want a self-hosted alternative to commercial meeting tools.
