Video Overview

Product Options​

The SignalWire Video API is a powerful video conferencing tool (or rather, a set of tools) built on an MCU (Multipoint Control Unit) that handles all of the muxing in the cloud. This ensures only a single stream is sent to each participant, resulting in low latency, high quality, and the same video stream for every single person.

REST APIs

Use classic HTTP calls to create and maintain tokens, rooms, sessions, and recordings.

Realtime Server SDK

Build a video solution using your own server using web socket technology.

Make audio/video calls to phone numbers, SIP endpoints, and other browsers.

Programmable Video Conferences

Build advanced customized rooms with NO code, and easily embed into your existing applications.
