Description
Founded in 2003, Digital Samba is a privacy-first video conferencing company rooted in the European Union — where the world’s strongest data protection standards are set — and trusted by organisations across the globe. Our technology is built around zero tracking, uncompromising security, and long-term reliability.
We provide two ways to connect:
Digital Samba – a free, ready-to-use platform for meetings, classes, webinars, trainings, and events.
Digital Samba Embedded – an API and SDK that lets organisations embed fully customisable, branded video conferencing directly into their own apps and services.
Our minimalist design puts usability first, while delivering powerful features like HD video and audio, screen sharing, breakout rooms, whiteboards, polling, Q&A, AI captions and summaries, and secure cloud recordings. For developers and enterprises, advanced options such as full white labelling, CNAME domains, API control, and webhooks provide seamless integration and complete branding freedom.
Backed by 99.99% uptime, intelligent bandwidth management, and enterprise-grade safeguards like E2EE, anonymised IDs, token-based authentication, and TLS encryption, Digital Samba is built for critical communications. From healthcare and education to international events like Eurovision, we deliver scalable, secure, and user-friendly video conferencing — without compromise.
