Meetings, calls, and chat — inside a platform you control.

Run video meetings with no participant limits, message colleagues 1:1 or in groups, share files, and keep a searchable archive — all inside a single platform you actually control. External guests are scoped to one group; nothing else is visible to them.

The Problem

Your meetings tool and your work live in separate worlds.

Every video call goes through an external service — one more vendor, one more contract, one more place where meeting data lands outside your control. Participant limits hit at the worst moment. External guests join via open links with no guardrails.

At the same time, staff coordinate sensitive work through WhatsApp and personal phones. Messages land on third-party servers with no audit trail, no archive, and no way to revoke access when someone leaves.

It does not have to be this way.

The Solution

Meetings, messaging, and workspaces — inside infrastructure you control.

Communication Node brings video conferencing, secure messaging, calendaring, and project workspaces into one platform — with no participant limits, no third-party cloud, and external access scoped exactly as far as you choose.

Built-in video conferencing and group rooms

Start or schedule a video meeting without leaving the platform. No external service, no meeting data going to a third-party vendor.

Team and group calendars with Outlook integration

Shared calendars that slot into the workflows your people already use. Meetings are visible where the work happens.

Open, closed, and secret workgroups

Every group gets its own dashboard, calendar, and access controls. Sensitive projects stay separated from general spaces.

Scoped external guests

Invite partners, clients, or citizens into a single group. They see only what you share — nothing else on the platform.

No participant limits

Run large assemblies, all-hands meetings, or federation-wide events without hitting a tier ceiling or paying per seat.

1:1 and group chat with media

Fast, familiar messaging for individuals and groups — with files, images, and reactions. No data trail on third-party servers.

Push notifications, search & archiving

Nothing gets lost. Every message is searchable and archived under your control — ready for audit or compliance review.

Germany/EU hosting or on-premise

Meeting recordings, chat logs, and calendar data stay inside your instance — in Germany/EU or on your own infrastructure.

Result: The meetings and messaging tool you expect — inside infrastructure you control.

Built for your use case

From large assemblies to cross-org working groups.

Large events and assemblies (associations & public sector)

Associations and municipal networks run general assemblies, committee sessions, and federation-wide events without participant limits and without handing meeting data to a third-party vendor. External delegates join a scoped group — they attend the meeting without accessing anything else on the platform.

Distributed teams and project workspaces (commercial)

Growing organisations consolidate video calls, project boards, and calendars into one platform instead of juggling Zoom, Teams, and a separate task tool. No per-seat billing surprises as the team scales, and meeting data stays within the organisation rather than accumulating in a vendor cloud.

Regulated organization moving off consumer apps

A public authority or association moves its operational messaging out of WhatsApp into an auditable environment with full archive, access control, and GDPR-compliant storage — without disrupting the speed of day-to-day communication.

Common questions

About Secure Communication

Is there a participant limit for video meetings?

No. Communication Node imposes no participant ceiling. Whether you are running a small working group or a federation-wide assembly with hundreds of attendees, the same platform handles it — without tier upgrades or per-seat charges.

Does it integrate with our existing calendar — Outlook or Exchange?

Yes. Team and group calendars connect to Outlook and Exchange so scheduled meetings appear where your people already manage their time. There is no need to manage a separate calendar system.

Can external partners or guests join meetings securely?

Yes. External guests are invited into a single scoped group. They can participate in meetings and see content shared with that group — nothing else on the platform is visible to them. There are no open join links that bypass access controls.

Is messaging encrypted and archived?

Yes. Messages are stored in encrypted databases hosted in Germany/EU. Every message and file is archived and fully searchable under your management — ready for compliance or legal review at any time. On-premise installation is available for organisations that need full infrastructure control.
