JioMeet is India's answer to Zoom and it is absolutely free

+JioMeet is a free video conferencing service that doesn't have a time limit for calls.

Reliance Jio Platforms has launched its video conferencing platform, dubbed JioMeet.

The service takes aim squarely at Zoom, and it has a similar interface with a grid-based layout for calls.

But the biggest differentiator is that unlike Zoom or Google Meet, JioMeet does not have a time limit for video calls.

Users will be able to make calls for up to 24 hours on the platform if they wish to do so, and the service itself is free to use.

There is no paid option at this time.

By contrast, Zoom calls are limited to 40 minutes for free users, and Google Meet has a 60-minute limit for its free users.

By offering no time limit, JioMeet is setting itself up as a viable alternative to these two services.

The platform itself is powered by WebRTC — similar to Google Meet — and users can add up to 100 participants to a call.
