Secure video calls and guest calls by link (Element Call)

Calls inside the messenger

Element Call provides group video and audio calls right from the work rooms. There is no need to switch to a separate service: the discussion, files, and the call are all in one space.

This is convenient for regular team meetings: the discussion context stays in the same room where the call took place, and it is easy to return to.

A guest by link without installation or an account

The main convenience for external meetings is guest calls by link. An external participant is sent a link and joins from the browser without installing an app or creating an account.

This removes the typical barrier to calls with contractors and partners who do not want to install a new client for a single meeting.

• A guest joins by link straight from the browser.
• No app installation required.
• No separate account required for a one-off meeting.
• An external participant sees only the relevant call, not the entire space.

Scenarios with external participants

Guest calls fit negotiations with contractors, consultations, interviews, and demos. The internal team works in its own space, and the external participant joins only the specific call.

Because the call is tied to a room, internal participants keep their work context while the guest gets access exactly to the meeting they were invited to.

How it fits into the corporate messenger

Calls are part of a single corporate messenger, not a separate product. The same roles, access rights, and rooms as in the chat define who starts a call and whom they can invite.

Deployment can be self-host or hosted, so the company chooses where the call infrastructure lives — on its own server or on the KMVSG side.
