From endless screenshares and audio drops with Google Meet to faster, focused and outcomes-driven meetings with Video Calling App.
I hope you’re fluent in sign language. That’s the only way I’ve been able to reliably use Google Meet, because the audio consistently sucks or drops
Google is good at many things but Google meet sucks
Google Meet is the worst video conferencing product of all time, and it never gets better, only worse.
Actual hot take - Google Meet is absolute garbage.

Despite Google’s efforts with video calling (remember Google Talk, Hangouts and Duo?), Google Meet is far from being the perfect video conferencing tool for today’s global teams.
Screen share is Google Meet’s most used feature. However, browser freezes, blank screen display, no way for presenter to view audience reactions - makes it a half-baked feature.
Frequent call drops, latency and flaky audio-video are often observed by Google Meet users. This poses as a challenge for global teams to connect and work seamlessly.
Google Meet does not allow recordings under the free tier, or basic workspace plan. Since, it’s frequently a must - teams resort to add-ons or a different video conferencing tool for it.
Google Meet lacks AI-driven features like automatic speech recognition for summaries, generating MoMs, noise cancellation, etc.
GMeet currently lacks integration with advanced natural language processing (NLP) & machine translation algorithms.
The chat lacks advanced protocols like XMPP (Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol), rich text formatting, message threading.
Video Calling App isn't just a meeting + transcription tool; it takes care of your end-to-end meeting workflow. Organize discussions, automate pre and post meeting tasks and find context. Even if you miss a meeting.
Going beyond the generic sync, integrations are collaborative via remind-me on Slack, update task on Linear, or task planning on GCal, etc.
With tight integrations and AI features, search across meetings, summaries, recordings using advanced filters and contextual search.
With native plugins like whiteboard, reaction wheel, polls, rich chat, video streamer and more, make your meetings interactive.
AI-powered features like smart summaries, action items, real-time translation works with your async tools to keep everyone on the same page.
Capture key decisions, action items & automate creating tasks, updating status, adding comments on Linear, Jira, or any project management tool.
With seamless UI/UX, tight integrations, global search, shortcuts & powerful AI meetings suddenly become contextual, focused & outcome driven.
