## What is OpenVidu?

OpenVidu is a platform for building real-time video conferencing applications.
It's built on top of [LiveKit](https://livekit.io) and [mediasoup](https://mediasoup.org),
and is developed by a team with over a decade of experience building WebRTC systems.

- **Self-hosted**: deploy it on your own infrastructure (AWS, GCP, Azure, Oracle,
  DigitalOcean, on-premises) or use it as a managed service.
- **API-compatible with LiveKit**: use any LiveKit client/server SDK unchanged.
- **[OpenVidu Meet](https://github.com/OpenVidu/openvidu-meet)**: a fully-featured
  video conferencing app that ships on top of this platform, ready to use or embed.
- Advanced media features: recording, RTMP/streaming egress, AI agents (transcription,
  translation), virtual backgrounds, and more.
