Choose how to meet
The room changes where people appear and who hears whom. In Circle, everyone sits around a shared center. In Open Space, people move between conversations. In Panel, speakers are on stage while the audience listens.
Choose a room for the activity you have in mind. Board Room gives you shared cards to organize ideas; Arcade offers games for a break; the Den gives two people a space they can personalize.

An ongoing experiment
We are exploring how different room arrangements work for the people using them. Conversations, workshops, and time spent together help us learn what to improve.
The service is in early access. You may encounter bugs, and experimental rooms may change as we learn from use.

Privacy and participation
Guests do not need an account. Meetings and shared files are private to their members. There are no advertising or behavioral trackers, and recording stays off unless it is deliberately enabled and everybody agrees first.
The site, accounts, meeting data, encrypted recordings and transcripts are hosted in Europe. Live audio and video of meetings hosted from North America may be relayed through a server in the United States; nothing is stored there. When something breaks, we keep bounded technical evidence so it can be understood and fixed — not the substance of the conversation.
Read the details: what we keep and the terms.
