Great offering. High quality video calls have never been more relevant and important than in these times.
@briangamido That's what we think too. Rather than force users to go off-app to make a voice or video call, the proposition of keeping calls entirely in-app is growing ever more compelling.
Check out a new voice and video API product by Sendbird, the company co-founded by my friend John Kim.
@justinkan Thank you Justin! Really appreciate the continued support from YC days!
I've been experiencing Sendbird services for a long time. It always gives me great experience than expectations. Congrats! New products Sendbird calls.
@markatsendbird We follow the industry standards of charging by the minute per user, at different rates for audio and video. Minutes are prepaid. Although Sendbird Calls is not yet as mature as other products in the market, it stands out in its simplicity and focus on the developer experience. Developers can make their first call within 15 minutes of signing up.
@markatsendbird your user name is markatsendbird, isn’t this question a little disingenuous?
@claudesutterlin As you pointed out, my id explicitly represents my engagement with this company and I am aware of that. I'd like to apologize if this regarded disingenuous attempted and made you unpleasant, but I wanted to stimulate some strategic information shared to this post so people could get involved more easily.
Love what John Kim and his amazing team have created with Sendbird. Super easy for developers to get up and running with chat, and now equally easy to enable voice and video calls. You guys rock @doshkim 🤘🏻
Looks great, congrats on the launch. I assume Sendbird Calls are only for mobile. Any plans for to launch for web apps?
@5harath We already have and SDK and quickstart app for JavaScript! Built in-site calls into your web app in no time! https://docs.sendbird.com/javasc...
I wish you had pay-as-you-use model instead of minimum commitment ranging from $400, it becomes lot easier for startup to scale, I also think your pricing structure is not easy to understand, for instance for "Starter 5K" it seems it is only for chat, and for video calls, it says talk to expert. It is kind of turn-off when pricing are not transparent. I wish this could be fixed, anyway, product seems promising, best of luck and looking forward to use it in near future.
@ibrahim_azhar_armar Good feedback, thank you. Calls will be going to a self-serve model soon, such that you will no longer need to "talk to an expert."
@ibrahim_azhar_armar yes, prices are extremely tough for startups. We used them on a project and they estimated $600/month when we wanted to go into beta. We ended up losing two weeks writing our own chat client to replace it, which was pretty annoying. I assumed a reasonable usage based pricing when I first incorporated them into the app.
Thank you @mrgregzen! We are committed to help app creators meet their users’ needs for personal connection during these difficult times!
Sendbird calls is super easy to install. The developer documentation makes it a doddle
