What is MeetOye (Meet Oye)?

MeetOye — sometimes searched as "Meet Oye" — is an AI-native video meeting platform. It works like Google Meet or Zoom, but ships with Oya, a built-in AI assistant that transcribes, translates and recaps every call automatically, with no bot to invite and nothing to install.

Do guests need to install anything?

No. Anyone can join instantly from the browser on desktop or mobile. A Windows desktop beta is available for power users, and macOS is coming soon.

Is Oya really on by default?

Yes — Oya joins every call automatically to transcribe and, when the call ends, emails a recap with decisions and action items to all attendees. Hosts can disable it per meeting.

Who can see the transcript?

Only people who attended the meeting can access saved transcripts and recordings. Strict E2EE mode, when enabled, disables Oya, transcripts and recording so media keys stay in participant browsers. Standard meetings use encrypted transport.

Can we self-host MeetOye?

Teams can deploy MeetOye on-prem or in your own cloud, keeping all media and transcripts inside your network.

What does true 4K require?

4K · 60fps streams with adaptive bitrate, so calls stay smooth and automatically scale down on constrained networks.

FAQ

Questions teams ask before switching

Is MeetOye a good Microsoft Teams alternative?

Yes. MeetOye is a strong Microsoft Teams alternative for teams that want AI meeting recaps, transcription, and action items built in without requiring a Copilot subscription or the full Microsoft 365 stack.

What does MeetOye do that Microsoft Teams doesn't include by default?

MeetOye includes AI meeting recap, full transcription, action item extraction, and Ask Oya in every meeting by default. In Teams, equivalent AI features require a Copilot add-on that costs extra and is not available on all plans.

How does MeetOye compare to Microsoft Teams for AI notes?

MeetOye's Oya AI generates transcripts, recaps, and action items for every meeting automatically — no add-on, no per-user Copilot seat. Teams' AI recap (via Copilot) requires an additional license.

Can guests join MeetOye without a Microsoft account?

Yes. Anyone can join a MeetOye meeting from a browser link with no account, no Teams app, and no Microsoft 365 requirement.

Does MeetOye support screen sharing?

Yes. MeetOye supports screen sharing for all browser meetings.
