At plugNmeet, our open-source WebRTC video conferencing platform is built around flexibility, privacy, and control. While plugNmeet already supports specialized cognitive services from Azure and Google, we are excited to introduce a major upgrade to the Insights framework: the official OpenAI Provider for plugNmeet.

With this integration, you can bring powerful AI features to your self-hosted video conferencing server, including live transcription, real-time translation, live chat translation, spoken translations using text-to-speech, AI meeting summaries, and an in-meeting AI chatbot.

Even better, the provider is designed around the standard OpenAI API format, which means you can use OpenAI directly or connect plugNmeet to any OpenAI-compatible API, including alternative AI providers and self-hosted LLM platforms.

Mastering Your Media Workflows: Introducing Scripting and Storage Hooks

At plugNmeet, our goal is to provide a powerful, open, and flexible platform that adapts to your needs, not the other way around. As deployments grow and move to the cloud, managing media files like recordings and artifacts becomes a critical challenge. How do you store files in S3? How do you automate notifications when a recording is ready? How do you manage complex workflows in a multi-server cluster?

Until now, solving these challenges often required modifying the core application code, making updates difficult and maintenance a chore.

Today, we're thrilled to announce a powerful new feature that changes everything: Scripting and Storage Hooks. This new mechanism allows you to extend and customize plugNmeet's media workflow by executing your own custom scripts—either as efficient, long-lived processes or simple one-shot commands—at key stages. All communication happens via newline-delimited JSON over standard I/O, so you can integrate your own logic without touching a single line of the core code.

Embedding a video meeting on your WordPress site shouldn't mean sending your users to a third-party platform with confusing branding and a clunky interface. Your website is your brand's home, and your meetings should feel like a natural part of it. What if you could host secure, feature-rich video conferences directly from your own domain, with your own branding, and without writing a single line of code?

Today, we are excited to launch the all-new, deeply integrated plugNmeet plugin for WordPress. This plugin is your gateway to transforming any WordPress page or post into a powerful, self-hosted video conferencing room.

Sending students to an external video conferencing link breaks the learning flow, creates a disjointed experience, and pulls them away from the Moodle environment you've carefully built. What if your virtual classroom wasn't a detour, but a destination—a native part of your course?

Today, we're thrilled to announce the launch of the completely rebuilt plugNmeet plugin for Moodle. This isn't just an update; it's a ground-up redesign focused on one thing: deep, seamless integration that makes your virtual classroom feel like a core Moodle activity.
