Element Call is an open source end-to-end encrypted video and voice conferencing solution built on the Matrix protocol for secure communication.
We’re developing Element Call to provide the best possible security properties with compulsory end-to-end encryption, supporting sender verification, forward secrecy, post-compromise secrecy, zero-trust decentralisation and cross-domain capability. It achieves this by building on the foundations of Matrix as a mature, audited [1], open standard protocol for secure communication.
There are instances that work without an account still. It’s the main benefit of the whole thing.

Jitsi meet is the hosted service of the open source project provided by the developers. The proprietary variant is 8x8.com
