Introduction
Hello!! everyone, good to meet you again. In May, we introduced one of our most requested features: "Transcription & AI Summary," across all the SDKs and provided additional security via cloud proxy. We also launched and updated several other features that emphasize our commitment to delivering exceptional video solutions. Discover the latest updates from May 2024 that promise to transform your video experience.
? Transcription in Android & React Native
The Most Demanded Feature is Live Now!
We're thrilled to announce the launch of our highly anticipated transcription feature in Android and React Native! With real-time and post-call transcription, along with AI-generated summaries, you can now easily convert speech to text and review the key points of your video calls. You can get the transcription with a single call of a function, ensuring the best developer experience.
All our transcription and summary processes comply with HIPAA, GDPR, and other relevant data protection regulations.
? Cloud Proxy
We're also introducing the ability to choose your protocol mode with our Cloud Proxy feature.
Cloud Proxy offers three straightforward operating modes to fit different business and firewall requirements:
- UDP_OVER_TCP
- Force UDP
- Force TCP
The Cloud Proxy enables you to effectively control the routing of your streaming content across diverse network paths. By directing traffic to designated proxy servers, this functionality ensures compliance with different regional regulations, catering to your specific requirements and the geographical location of your users.

? Hello, San Francisco!!
We're excited to announce the addition of a new server in San Francisco, along with our pre-existing server locations. This expansion allows us to provide even better coverage and lower latency for our users on the West Coast of the United States

We're introducing the pre-call screen feature for our Flutter users! This highly requested addition allows users to test their audio and video devices before joining a call, ensuring everyone involved has a smooth and frustration-free call experience.

??Expo support
We're excited to announce that we now support Expo for our React-Native SDK! Forget about the complexities of configuring Android Studio and Xcode - with our SDK, integration is now smoother than ever. This means you can use our SDK without having to eject from Expo, making it easier than ever to integrate our features into your Expo-based applications.
?Pre-signed URLs in Cloud Recording
We're thrilled to let you know that we now allow you to provide pre-signed URLs, allowing you to securely upload your recordings to AWS, Azure, or GCP. This remarkable feature provides a temporary and secure method of uploading objects to your cloud storage without sharing your full credentials.
By using this feature, you can guarantee that your files are uploaded safely and efficiently, without any compromise to the security of your account.
For a pre-signed URL, you have to start recording first. Here is the start recording
