5 Best European Google Meet Alternatives in 2026

Whereby is a Norwegian browser-based video conferencing platform that requires no download, no install, and no account for meeting guests.

Breakout rooms, virtual whiteboards, file sharing, and AI-powered transcription handle the full meeting workflow without additional tools.

Key benefits:

• No download required — guests join via browser link with no account or install
• Permanent room links that work every time without scheduling ahead
• Embeddable SDK for integrating video into any web or mobile product
• Custom branding with your logo, colours, and domain in the room interface
• Breakout rooms for splitting large sessions into focused smaller groups
• Recording and AI transcription with automated meeting summaries
• HIPAA and ISO 27001 certified for healthcare and regulated use cases

Used by telehealth providers, online tutors, customer support teams, and SaaS builders who need reliable, no-friction video experiences embedded in their own products.
