FreeSBC sits at the edge of your phone system so your FreeSWITCH or Asterisk never has to face the public internet. It is the only element with a public address: phones register through it over SIP on UDP, TCP, or TLS, browsers call through WebSocket with WebRTC terminated at the edge (ICE-Lite, DTLS-SRTP, and RTCP-mux, relayed onward as plain RTP), and carriers reach your switch through it as an outbound proxy, with the switch's private addresses hidden from every SDP body, Contact, and Request-URI it constructs. The switch stays on a private LAN as the registrar and call brain, holding credentials and carrier accounts, while FreeSBC anchors all media on its own ports with hardened first-packet latching and a silence watchdog, and never transcodes. Against the background radiation of SIP scanning, it applies per-IP rate limits with separate limits for carrier sources, scanner fingerprinting with in-memory bans, and admission control for public INVITEs and REGISTER enumeration, and every denial is a silent drop. A multi-switch pool hashes users across switches, and one fixed private socket keeps the trusted side simple. The embedded WebUI, REST API, and Prometheus metrics sit behind a bcrypt-checked admin login, showing live calls and media ports. One static binary, one YAML file, no database, no Redis, and no separate media process to babysit.

One Janus installation can host a video meeting in one session, stream a camera feed in another, and bridge a browser call into a telephone network in a third, because Janus is a general-purpose WebRTC server whose work is done by interchangeable plugins. The VideoRoom plugin publishes each participant's streams to everyone else in the room with simulcast and viewport selection, so a class or team call adapts quality per viewer instead of forcing one bitrate on all. Streaming mounts live or prerecorded sources, including RTSP cameras and RTP feeds, and hands them to any number of WebRTC viewers, while AudioBridge mixes voices into conference rooms with recording and signed-token access. SIP and NoSIP plugins register with existing VoIP infrastructure and place or receive calls, translating between WebRTC media and telephone audio so a web page can ring a desk phone. Record&Play captures publisher streams to files you can replay through the same server, TextRoom adds data-channel chat rooms, and Lua or JavaScript plugins let you script custom media logic without recompiling the core. Applications talk to Janus over HTTP or WebSocket APIs, with RabbitMQ, MQTT, and NATS transports for bus-driven deployments, and event handlers report session activity to your monitoring stack.

Once a voice agent is imported or built, Lampline connects it to a phone line, sends an AI caller to grade real calls, and keeps it all on your own server. Start by importing a Dialogflow CX or CX Agent Studio export along with a report of anything to check, or build fresh in a drag-and-drop builder that mixes LLM steps with scripted pages for exact lines and form fields. Next, pick one of 20 model providers, including Claude, OpenAI, Gemini, Bedrock, Groq, and DeepSeek, or run Ollama with local speech and no API keys. Test by chat or microphone while each step lights up, and let agents call HTTP and MCP tools and save records in collections of their own. Then connect callers through Twilio, Telnyx, or any SIP trunk, PBX, or session border controller via jambonz, with transfers to a person that carry the call's details as SIP headers. Finally, evals phone the agent over a real line, where an AI Test Caller brings background noise, accents, and interruptions, grades each transcript check by check, and reports typical and p95 response times as callers hear them. Each agent stays a folder of YAML and Markdown that you can review in git and lint or test with the vk CLI.

Build a voice AI agent that answers calls, qualifies leads, books appointments, and transfers to a human when needed, all from a drag-and-drop workflow builder in your browser. Dograh ships as a Docker Compose stack (API, web UI, Postgres, Redis, MinIO) that you self-host on any Linux server with automatic HTTPS provisioning via Let's Encrypt. The visual workflow builder lets you design multi-turn conversation flows by connecting nodes for greetings, intent classification, tool calls, and handoffs; describe your use case in plain English and the platform generates the LLM prompt and node graph for you. Connect your own speech-to-text, LLM, and text-to-speech providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, ElevenLabs, Deepgram, local Whisper, Kokoro, or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint) or use the built-in Speech-to-Speech mode with Gemini Flash Live and GPT-Realtime-2 for sub-200ms latency. Telephony plugs in through Twilio, Vonage, Vobiz, or Cloudonix for inbound and outbound calling, with live agent transfer when the conversation needs a human. Webhook tool calls connect to Salesforce, HubSpot, Google Calendar, Cal.com, or any REST API without writing orchestration code. The ClonedVoice feature mixes real human voice recordings for high-frequency phrases with neural TTS fallback for dynamic content, cutting costs while improving caller trust. A built-in MCP server lets AI coding agents like Claude Code or Cursor design, test, and edit workflows through natural language.

A complete WhatsApp Business Platform covering messaging, chatbot automation, and voice calling with IVR — a combination most self-hosted projects never attempt. The Fastglue/fasthttp backend processes WhatsApp Cloud API webhooks through PostgreSQL and Redis into a real-time WebSocket layer powering instant chat updates across a Vue 3 frontend built with shadcn-vue and TailwindCSS. Chatbot automation supports keyword triggers, multi-step conversation flows with branching logic, AI-powered responses from OpenAI, Anthropic, or Google models, knowledge base integration via vector stores, and seamless handoff to human agents when the bot gets stuck. The visual IVR builder uses a drag-and-drop node canvas where you wire greeting prompts, DTMF menu capture, HTTP callbacks to external APIs mid-call, business-hours routing by IANA timezone, agent team transfers with hold music, and reusable sub-flows. Every call recording streams encrypted to your S3-compatible bucket with retention you control. Multi-tenant architecture isolates organizations with separate data, roles, and API keys while a unified inbox presents both chat and call conversations to agents in a single dashboard. Meta-approved template management, bulk campaign messaging, analytics tracking, and a full REST API round out the platform. Deploy via Docker Compose with Postgres and Redis included. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL v3 licensed.

Evolution API gives your applications a production-ready REST interface to WhatsApp, supporting both free Baileys-based Web connections and Meta's official Business Cloud API from the same server. With 9,200+ stars and 7,100+ forks, it is the most widely deployed WhatsApp integration layer available. Each installation handles unlimited isolated instances (one per phone number) with independent auth, webhooks, and database separation via Prisma ORM against PostgreSQL or MySQL, cached through Redis. Message types include text, images, audio, video, documents, contacts, locations, interactive buttons, list messages, carousel cards, and PIX payment links through unified endpoints. Native integrations connect to Typebot for chatbot flows, Chatwoot for multi-agent support, Dify and OpenAI for AI conversations, N8N and Flowise for workflow automation, and RabbitMQ, Kafka, or SQS for enterprise event streaming. Socket.io delivers real-time message and connection events. Amazon S3 or MinIO handles media offloading. The Evolution Manager v2 dashboard provides visual instance creation, QR code scanning, connection monitoring, and integration configuration without touching the API directly. Docker Compose bundles the server, PostgreSQL, and Redis with environment-variable-driven setup.

Galene is a self-hosted video conferencing system that runs full meetings, lectures, and tutorials in the browser while asking remarkably little of the server it runs on. Every group gets its own page with video tiles, a user list, and a chat pane, and participants join from desktop or mobile browsers with nothing to install. Presenters share a screen or individual windows, stream a video or audio file straight from disk, and switch to blackboard mode when a slide needs resolution more than frame rate. Moderators can warn or remove participants and lock the group, raise-hand status keeps question queues orderly, and anyone can blur their background or exchange files directly with peers. Groups are simple configuration files: set public or private rooms, passwords or login tokens, client limits, and expiry windows, then create users with moderator or presenter privileges using the galenectl command. Automatic subgroups spin up identical breakout rooms on demand, the pattern its author uses to supervise forty students working in pairs during computer science practicals. Calls stay smooth on poor networks because the server adapts video quality per participant, recovers lost packets, and relays media through its built-in TURN server when firewalls block direct paths.

Backed by nearly 30,000 GitHub stars and powering millions of meetings through meet.jit.si, Jitsi Meet is the open-source video conferencing platform that runs entirely in the browser with no plugins or downloads required. The WebRTC-based architecture delivers HD audio and video through the Jitsi Videobridge selective forwarding unit, while Prosody handles XMPP signaling and Jicofo manages conference focus and orechestration. End-to-end encryption uses AES-GCM 128-bit keys exchanged via the Olm protocol, protecting audio, video, and screen sharing through the Insertable Streams API in Chromium-based browsers. Moderators can split participants into breakout rooms with individual password protection, enable lobby waiting rooms for admission control, set meeting passwords, and track speaker statistics with per-participant talk time metrics. Virtual backgrounds leverage TensorFlow.js body segmentation with WebGPU and WebGL acceleration, automatically adapting quality through device tier detection. Server-side recording and YouTube live streaming run through Jibri, while Jigasi provides a SIP gateway for PSTN dial-in and speech-to-text transcription. The platform includes in-meeting chat with private conversations, polls, raise-hand functionality, emoji reactions, and tile and speaker view layouts. Mobile applications for iOS and Android complement the web client, and both web and native SDKs enable embedding video conferences into custom applications.

With over 20,000 GitHub stars and adoption by companies building everything from telehealth platforms to AI voice agents, LiveKit is the most widely deployed open-source real-time communication server available. The Go-based Selective Forwarding Unit handles hundreds of concurrent participants per node with adaptive bitrate streaming, simulcast layers, SVC codec support for VP9 and AV1, and end-to-end encryption. Client SDKs span JavaScript, Swift, Kotlin, Flutter, React Native, Rust, Python, Unity, and ESP32 embedded devices, while server-side APIs cover Node.js, Go, Ruby, Java, Python, Rust, PHP, and .NET. The Agents framework enables building AI-powered voice and video applications — real-time speech-to-text, LLM-driven conversations, and computer vision pipelines — running as server-side participants in any room. Egress records sessions to S3-compatible storage or streams to RTMP endpoints, while Ingress pulls external feeds from OBS via RTMP, WHIP, or SRT into LiveKit rooms. The SIP bridge connects traditional telephony to WebRTC rooms for hybrid conferencing. JWT-based authentication, webhook notifications, room-level moderation APIs, and selective subscription give operators granular control. Deploy as a single binary for development, Docker Compose for production single-node, or Kubernetes with the official Helm chart for distributed multi-region clusters using Redis for state coordination.

Matrix's flagship client, built by the protocol's creators: Element brings the decentralized open standard for real-time communication to web, desktop, iOS, and Android. Paired with a Matrix homeserver, it delivers Slack-quality team messaging where you own every message, file, encryption key, and byte of metadata. End-to-end encryption is on by default, built on Olm and Megolm - the Double Ratchet algorithm family Signal popularized, extended for large-room scalability and publicly audited by NCC Group. Messages encrypt per-device with cross-signed device verification, so even a compromised server yields nothing readable. Federation is the defining capability: like email, users on different homeservers converse seamlessly, and 30+ bridges connect Matrix rooms to Slack, Discord, WhatsApp, and Telegram, so moving to sovereign infrastructure doesn't sever contact with anyone. Rooms support threads, reactions, file sharing, and voice and video calls via Element Call. The result is digital sovereignty chosen by governments and enterprises across Europe: your data sits on your server in your jurisdiction, portable to any other Matrix host because the protocol is an open standard. Apache-2.0 licensed, with no per-user fees at any scale.

Teams that cannot send messages through someone else's cloud run Mattermost - the open-core, self-hosted alternative to Slack. It provides public and private channels, threaded discussions, unlimited search history, file sharing with previews, one-to-one audio calls, and screen sharing, with desktop clients for Windows, macOS, and Linux plus iOS and Android apps. Messages support full Markdown, which suits engineering conversations with code blocks and logs. Playbooks turn repeatable processes such as incident response and release management into checklist-driven workflows with automated triggers and retrospectives. Integration is a core strength: prebuilt connectors for GitHub, GitLab, Jira, ServiceNow, and PagerDuty, plus webhooks, slash commands, bots, a REST API, and a plugin marketplace with 700+ entries - together making it a working surface for ChatOps rather than just a chat room. Playbooks add keyword and event triggers, task assignment, status broadcasting, and post-incident retrospectives, so operational knowledge is not trapped in individuals' heads. The server is a single Go binary backed by PostgreSQL, with React clients, released monthly under MIT license and deployable fully air-gapped - which is why governments and defense organizations run it inside closed networks, and why the same control applies to any team with confidentiality requirements. The compiled Team Edition is free for unlimited users with no message history cutoff, so costs stay flat as the team grows.
