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.

Browser-Based Video Conferencing in 2026: Why No-Install Meetings Win

The MeetOye Team

PRODUCT

Browser-based video conferencing means guests can join a meeting by clicking a link — no software download, no account creation, no permissions dialog. This sounds like a minor convenience, but for external meetings it is a meaningful difference in first impressions and meeting completion rates.

The friction of install-required meetings

When a guest receives a meeting link that requires a software install, a portion of them will not complete the join. The install triggers IT approval requests in managed environments, fails on locked-down corporate machines, and adds 2–5 minutes of setup that erodes the scheduled meeting time. For client calls, the install prompt is an awkward start to what is supposed to be a smooth interaction.

What browser-based conferencing enables

Any device, any browser: guests join from Windows, Mac, iOS, Android, Chromebook, or Linux without compatibility concerns.
No IT approval: browser-based meetings work on managed corporate machines without an install request.
Instant first impressions: the meeting starts on time because no one is waiting for a download.
Mobile-friendly: guests on phones can join without downloading a dedicated app.

MeetOye's browser-first approach

MeetOye is browser-native. Guests click the meeting link and join immediately, with no install required on any platform. The Windows desktop app is available for users who want a dedicated native shell, but it is never required — even for hosts. This means external clients, partners, and interview candidates can join without any setup friction.
