-Multi-party: mesh, routing, or mixing.
+# Hosted realtime audio/video conferencing
+
+## Recommendations
+
+These hosted services are all built with Free software
+relatively simple and cheap to later fully self-host if needed.
+
+ * <https://tawk.space/>
+ for casual "let's meet at a cafe" style meeting
+ * <https://letsmeet.no/>
+ for small groups of up to 6 persons
+ * <http://sip2sip.info/>
+ for larger meetings with dedicated speaker(s)
+
## Features
+Functionality to consider when considering tool/platform.
+
+ * topology
+ + mesh (P2P)
+ all processing at end-points, participants limited by bandwidth
+ + routing (SFU)
+ light server processing, participants limited by bandwidth
+ + mixing (MCU)
+ heavy server processing
* stream source efficiency
+ Support [simulcast](https://webrtcglossary.com/simulcast/)
i.e. encode multiple streams that an SFU can "hop" between
