What's the audio latency?
Open Intercom delivers sub-200ms audio latency via WebRTC and Symphony Media Bridge. This is comparable to traditional hardware intercom systems and suitable for live production workflows where real-time coordination is critical.
How many participants can join?
The Professional plan supports unlimited participants. You can scale your intercom system to match your production needs without worrying about capacity constraints.
Can it integrate with existing hardware intercom?
Yes. Open Intercom supports SIP gateway integration, allowing you to bridge your existing hardware intercom systems with cloud-based participants. This enables hybrid workflows during migration or for specific production requirements.
Is it reliable enough for live broadcasts?
Absolutely. Open Intercom is trusted by SVT (Sveriges Television) for production workflows. The system is built on proven WebRTC technology with enterprise-grade security and reliability standards required for professional broadcasting.
What if Open Source Cloud goes away?
Open Intercom is fully open source with zero vendor lock-in. You can deploy it anywhere—on your own infrastructure, another cloud provider, or on-premises. All components are available under open source licenses, ensuring long-term viability regardless of any single provider.
How does pricing compare to hardware intercom?
Open Intercom costs EUR 199/month for the Professional plan, compared to EUR 10,000-100,000+ for traditional hardware intercom systems like RTS, Clear-Com, or Riedel. That's a 10-100x cost reduction, with no hardware installation, maintenance, or upgrade costs.
