## La Suite Meet: Simple Video Conferencing
|
||
|
||
Powered by [LiveKit](https://livekit.io/), La Suite Meet offers Zoom-level performance with high-quality video and audio. No installation required—simply join calls directly from your browser. Check out LiveKit's impressive optimizations in their [blog post](https://blog.livekit.io/livekit-one-dot-zero/).
|
||
|
||
### Features

|
||
- Meeting recording
|
||
- Meeting transcription & Summary (currently in beta)
|
||

|
||

|
||

|
||
- 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.

|
||
|
||
Most of the heavy engineering is handled by the incredible LiveKit team, allowing us to focus on delivering a top-tier product. We follow extreme programming practices, favoring pair programming and quick, iterative releases. Challenge our tech and architecture—simplicity is always our top priority.
|
||
|
