Attendee - Meeting bots made easy

​
What is Attendee?

Attendee is an open source API for managing meeting bots on platforms like Zoom, Google Meet, and Microsoft Teams. Building meeting bots is complex and time-consuming - Attendee abstracts away this complexity into a single developer-friendly REST API.
Meeting bots are powerful because they have access to the same audio and video streams as human users of meeting software. They power products like Gong and Otter.ai.

​
Why use Attendee?

Building meeting bots from scratch is challenging across all platforms:
  • Zoom provides a powerful SDK, but it’s low-level and advanced features like per-participant audio streams are only available in the C++ variants
  • Google Meet doesn’t provide any official bot support, requiring you to run a full Chrome instance
  • Microsoft Teams has similar complexity and limited documentation
Attendee saves you months of development work by providing a unified API across all major meeting platforms.
