  • Identity flows get liveness detection and ID matching, with the recording as the audit trail.
  • Interviews and consultations get transcripts and summaries for recruiters and clinicians to review.
  • Classrooms get attention and participation signals for teachers.
  • On-premise deployment keeps the media and the models inside your network.

Low-code Video Builder

Ship video without building the UI

A hosted, brandable video app on the Video API. Pick a template (consultation, classroom, meeting or webinar), set branding, embed by iframe or webview, and control it from your page over postMessage. Start low-code and move to full API and SDK control any time.

Templates

Start from a template

Templates for consultations, classrooms, meetings and webinars, or build from scratch. A three-step wizard puts your app live on a subdomain, no SDK needed.

Branding

Make it yours

A visual builder controls layout, toolbar, logo, and colours. Override features per session with URL query parameters, no redeploy.

Embed

Embed in web or mobile

Drop the IFRAME snippet into any HTTPS page, or load the join URL in Android, iOS, React Native, or Flutter webviews. Role-based links for moderators, participants, and HLS viewers.

Control

Wire it to your app

The embed talks to your page over postMessage: join, leave, and recording events in, actions like start streaming out. Manage sessions with the same Video API.

Video Call API FAQs

A Video API bundles REST endpoints, client SDKs and WebRTC media servers so you can add live video calling, recording and streaming to an application without building the media stack yourself. The EnableX Video Call API ships SDKs for JavaScript, iOS, Android and React Native, with server-side recording, HLS streaming and optional AI analysis.

WebRTC is the open real-time standard that browsers and mobile apps use to stream audio, video and data with sub-second latency. Because it is built into the browser, your users join from a link with no plug-ins and no proprietary client to install.

Your server creates a room through the REST API and mints join tokens. Your client passes a token to the EnableX SDK, which handles media negotiation, encryption and bandwidth adaptation. EnableX media servers route the streams, record the session and emit webhooks for join, leave and recording events.

Client SDKs for web (JavaScript), iOS (Swift and Objective-C), Android (Kotlin and Java) and React Native, plus a low-code embed for iframes and webviews. On the server, any language that can make REST calls can create rooms, mint tokens and receive webhooks.
