Whereby

The video conferencing space appears to be at a crossroads, as major shifts by industry giants signal both challenges and opportunities. Twilio’s initial decision to sunset its video, followed by a reversal to reinvest in the product, highlighted its struggle to balance priorities while maintaining customer trust.?At the same time, Zoom’s rebranding as an "AI-first work platform" raises critical questions about its commitment to video communication services. As someone working closely with companies that depend on video, I can’t help but wonder what this means for organizations that rely on their solution. Is video still a priority for "Zoom 2.0"? From conversations with partners, I know many are already frustrated with Zoom’s corporate-centric approach and high pricing, and this strategic pivot doesn’t exactly inspire confidence. Whereby has a singular focus: delivering reliable, user-friendly video API and SDK tailored for seamless integration. We’ve spent over a decade honing our WebRTC expertise, focusing on creating secure, reliable, and user-friendly experiences - particularly for sectors like telehealth, where virtual communication is non-negotiable. Unlike the bigger players shifting their priorities, our focus remains steady (even as we invest in AI features!). My DM's are open if you want to chat.

Zoom drops video..... from its name and has announced that it is now an "AI-first work platform". We at Whereby are doubling down on what we know matters: best-in-class video communication. For us, AI isn’t a buzzword; it’s a tool to enhance what we’ve built over the past decade—video solutions that are seamless, secure, and easy to use. With so many Zoom users voicing concerns over clunky UX, rising costs, and now, a shift in focus, we’re here to offer a clear alternative: a team and product wholly dedicated to video communication. In Telehealth and beyond, our API and SDK are powering meaningful connections globally, with reliability and trust at the forefront. Video-first. Customer-first. That’s Whereby. DM me if you want to learn more—we’re ready to help. #videofirst #customerfirst #justthebeginning
