Choose the right tool, even when it isn't us
Three honest comparisons against the platforms teams ask about most. Each one says plainly when the other product is the better fit.
Synento vs Daily
Daily is a mature WebRTC platform with a polished prebuilt UI and broad browser reach. Synento is a narrower tool: durable streams first, with recording as a property of the architecture rather than a paid add-on.
Read the comparisonSynento vs LiveKit
LiveKit is a powerful open-source WebRTC stack you can self-host or buy as a cloud service. Synento is fully hosted and deliberately smaller in scope. It gives up some real-time features for an architecture where every session is durably recorded by default.
Read the comparisonSynento vs Vonage Video (Tokbox)
Vonage Video, formerly Tokbox OpenTok, is a long-established platform with deep telephony integration and wide browser support. Synento is a modern, much narrower alternative for teams whose product is built around recorded sessions.

What the tables compare
Latency model: relayed WebSocket streams against real-time WebRTC paths.

Self-hosting and operations: fully hosted against self-hostable cores.
Telephony and SIP: where dial-in matters and where it does not exist.

Pricing shape: participant-minutes and storage against per-minute, egress and archive meters.
Agent and MCP integration: verify-via-manifest against dashboard-led setup.

Competitor details were checked against their public documentation and pricing in October 2026, and their plans change. We keep claims general on purpose: a stale specific is worse than an honest generality. Think we have described someone unfairly? Tell us and we will correct it.
