Proton Meet will be soon available for all

Launch a Video Chat Room similar to Zoom, Meet, and others. But unlike others, Proton can apply the best encryption and security.

In today’s fast-paced digital world, seamless and secure communication is essential. Our encrypted call and meeting solution goes beyond simple video conferencing — it’s fully integrated with your email and calendar, ensuring every interaction is private, effortless, and perfectly synchronized. Designed https://call2.io/ to connect directly with your existing systems and AI agents, our platform delivers a frictionless experience that empowers your team to collaborate confidently, without ever compromising security or convenience.

Great idea! Integrating secure voice and video calling into ProtonMail would be a huge step forward for privacy-focused communication. As someone who works with high-quality video and image processing tools like VSCO for Mac (https://bestvscoapk.com/mac
), I can say seamless media handling with encryption is key to modern creative workflows.

Yes, it was an odd way to release. I stumbled across it and had to work out what was going on apart from a minimalist single page.

Exactly. If the Proton suite included that meeting feature, a browser, and a messenger, it would be perfect. I know there are alternatives, such as Zoom for meetings, Mozilla for browsing, and other options for messaging, but using everything in a single trusted platform is better for me.

A Skype (defunct) and Google Voice competitor is going to be hard to do, for those were/are free for simple use case scenarios. MS Teams doesn't fill the bill as a Skype replacement either. I'm using Google Voice, currently--there is no better free option, IMO. I have a feeling that Proton Meet is going to be a Teams-like thing (and Zoom... etc.) rather than a Voice-like thing. I have no use for that.

Exactly, privacy-first meetings would fit perfectly into Proton’s ecosystem.

For Proton Business customers this is most likely a very important feature as this is included in most other 'Business suite' SaaS software on the market.

In the context of future-proofing Proton as a communications app. voice is critical. text, done. The question is is Proton still focused on communications, as was its origin? IT would greatly develop its business subscription value by having an integrated phone system. Unfortunately, it is an entirely different branch of development and might be easier to acquire an existing stack.

In the interim I recommend looking at brave talk. No you don’t need the brave browser to use it. There is a chrome extension available for it that works with proton calendar as well

A privacy-focused, zero-access encryption, end-to-end encryption instant messaging app inspired by Meta's WhatsApp and other instant messaging apps also have all the features available, such as WhatsApp's voice and video calls, chat lock option.

I think using Jitsi Meet would be a viable alternative.

If Proton continues to grow its userbase and financial prospectus, this might eventually happen. However, realtime videostream encryption/decryption without significant lag in a global market requires daunting processing power and expert network engineering. I am not in the know on this, but I think Proton's data infrastructure won't be up to the task for months or years yet.
It also puts them in direct competition in that market with Google, Zoom, and Brave who is currently allowing Proton as an advertising client.
I would like to see this happen, but as of this writing, it looks way down the roadmap.

I would add those feature:

Votes like "polls" in group chats or a votes or just message that would reach multiple contacts selected once the message or the vote is created.

Add the Briar system just in case that can be activated at our own will.

It would be great if your apps could be interoperable with other open source apps. Like emails between Proton and RiseUp would be encrypted all the same.
Maybe talk with them to use common ways to encrypt but with out anyone having to abandoned their own way for more individual strength.

It's like the concept of Euro as a common currency and not unique but each country would have their own original one.

It would an important asset to the Proton package

Hello,
I'm a French independant social and family economics advisor (social worker) and I'm looking for a secure videoconferencing tool. I hope Proton will offer this as part of one of its subscriptions soon.
Sincerely,

It would be amazing if you could run Jitsi Meet (https://jitsi.org/jitsi-meet/) for your users. Then integrate this with calendar etc.
