Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Convay is a video conferencing and collaboration platform for teams, enterprises, educational institutions, and government organizations. It combines video meetings, screen sharing, host controls, breakout rooms, interactive whiteboards, team chat, file sharing, and live annotation. The platform runs on web, Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, and Android, with cloud, on-premises, private-cloud, and self-hosted deployment options. That breadth makes it relevant to organizations that need control over deployment as well as standard meeting tools.
The free Convay Free plan costs $0 per user per month and supports meetings up to 55 minutes with up to 100 participants, plus a whiteboard and live annotation. Convay Pro costs $11.99 per user per month with annual billing and extends meetings to 30 hours and 150 participants, adding local and cloud recording, AI-powered meeting minutes, and 10 GB of cloud storage per user. Convay Business costs $16.99 annually or $19.99 monthly per user, supports up to 300 participants, and adds customizable AI minute formats, 15 GB of storage per user, and post-meeting transcripts. Enterprise provides customizable meeting hours, participant limits, branding, white labeling, AI companion access, and cloud storage.
AI-generated minutes, post-meeting transcripts, multilingual transcription, and subtitles give Convay a clear documentation focus beyond live calls. Security and administration features include SSO, LDAP-based provisioning, two-factor authentication, and compliance listings for ISO27001 and GDPR. Integrated chat and file sharing keep basic collaboration within the platform, while private deployment suits organizations with data-location requirements. Teams seeking a free tool for short meetings can start with Convay Free; organizations needing longer sessions, recording, or AI documentation should consider Pro or Business. Buyers wanting broader support channels or a different collaboration ecosystem may prefer an alternative.
