I do not enjoy being blunt, but the author seem to have borrowed a page from a “that” conferencing company’s marketing playbook by making very questionable claims.
It’s a nice project, but:
> Zipcall is built radically different. We left behind slow bulky servers, opting for decentralized peer to peer calling. We engineered a platform with maximum video quality and low latency.
Translation: it uses WebRTC or we didn’t invent anything — it uses technology built into your browser.
> State of the art VP9 video compression combined with our scaling optimization makes your calls crystal clear.
Same as above (assuming you’re browser supports VP9).
> Breakthrough peer to peer WebRTC technology means your video goes directly to the other person without a server. No middleman. No extra stops.
Same as above.
> End to end state of the art encryption means your calls are exactly that. Your calls.
How exactly?
