- Non-persistent, secure chat
- End-to-end encryption with hybrid key distribution
- Meeting recording
- Meeting transcription & Summary (currently in beta)
- Telephony integration
- Secure participation with robust authentication and access control
- Customizable frontend style
- LiveKit Advances features including :
- speaker detection
- simulcast
- end-to-end optimizations
- selective subscription
- SVC codecs (VP9, AV1)
### End-to-end encryption
La Suite Meet supports end-to-end encryption (E2EE) for meetings, ensuring that the media server (LiveKit SFU) cannot access audio/video content. Two encryption modes are available:
#### Basic encryption
- Passphrase-based — the encryption key is embedded in the meeting URL hash (`#passphrase`)
- Uses LiveKit's built-in Worker + `crypto.subtle` (AES-GCM) for frame encryption
- Sharing the meeting link shares the encryption key
- No account or onboarding required
- Security depends on keeping the link private
#### Advanced encryption
- Key managed by [La Suite Encryption](https://github.com/suitenumerique/encryption) — the symmetric key never leaves the vault iframe
- Uses XChaCha20-Poly1305 (libsodium) via the VaultClient iframe for frame encryption
- Key distribution uses `vaultClient.shareKeys()` (hybrid PKI with X25519 + post-quantum slot)
- All participants must complete encryption onboarding (key generation + backup) before joining
- Requires a Chromium-based browser (Chrome, Edge, Brave) — uses the Insertable Streams API
**Frame encryption (both modes):**
- Codec header bytes (VP8 payload descriptor) are preserved unencrypted — required for proper RTP packetization
- Only the media payload is encrypted, with a per-frame random nonce
- The server (LiveKit SFU) only forwards encrypted data it cannot read
**Trust levels (advanced mode):**
| Badge | Level | Description |
|-------|-------|-------------|
| 🟢 Green shield | Verified | User completed encryption onboarding (public key registered). Identity cryptographically verified. |
| 🔵 Blue shield | Authenticated | User signed in via ProConnect/OIDC. Identity server-verified. |
| 🟡 Orange warning | Anonymous | User not signed in. Self-declared name. Admin should verify identity before accepting. |
**Security guarantees:**
- Encrypted rooms enforce restricted access (lobby approval required)
- Trust information (`is_authenticated`, `email`) comes from server-signed JWT tokens — cannot be spoofed
- Recording and transcription are not available in encrypted rooms (server cannot decrypt media)
**Configuration:**
```env
ENCRYPTION_ENABLED=true
ENCRYPTION_VAULT_URL=https://data.encryption.example.fr
ENCRYPTION_INTERFACE_URL=https://encryption.example.fr
```
When the encryption service is deployed and configured, rooms can use advanced encryption. Without it, only basic (passphrase) encryption is available.
La Suite Meet is fully self-hostable and released under the MIT License, ensuring complete control and flexibility. It's simple to [get started](https://visio.numerique.gouv.fr/) or [request a demo](mailto:visio@numerique.gouv.fr).
We’re continuously adding new features to enhance your experience, with the latest updates coming soon!
### 🚀 Major roll out to all French public servants
On the 25th of January 2026, David Amiel, France’s Minister for Civil Service and State Reform, announced the full deployment of Visio—the French government’s dedicated Meet platform—to all public servants. ([Source in French](https://www.latribune.fr/article/la-tribune-dimanche/politique/73157688099661/david-amiel-ministre-delegue-de-la-fonction-publique-nous-allons-sortir-de-la-dependance-aux-outils-americains))

## Get started
## Docs
We're currently working on both technical and user documentation for La Suite Meet. In the meantime, many of the essential aspects are already well covered by the [LiveKit documentation](https://docs.livekit.io/home/) and their [self-hosting guide](https://docs.livekit.io/home/self-hosting/deployment/). Stay tuned for more updates!
## Self-host
### La Suite Meet is easy to install on your own servers
We use Kubernetes for our [production instance](https://visio.numerique.gouv.fr/) but also support Docker Compose. The community contributed a couple other methods (Nix, YunoHost etc.) check out the [docs](/docs/installation/README.md) to get detailed instructions and examples.

> [!NOTE]
> Some advanced features (ex: recording, transcription) lack detailed documentation. We're working hard to provide comprehensive guides soon.
