Joyin instead of Telemost: a meeting by link, no account
Telemost is a good service while it is up and while the host can sign in to a Yandex account. Joyin needs no account at all: one button, the link is ready, guests join from the browser. It works as a main tool and as a backup for outages.
- No account, no sign-up
- No time limit
- Server-side recording from any browser
- Free, up to 100 participants

Who needs a backup
Teachers and tutors
The lesson is on schedule and the service will not open. A new link in the class chat, and the lesson starts on time.
Teams
The stand-up does not wait for a fix. The backup link is pinned in the work chat and everyone knows where to go.
Webinar hosts
A hundred people showed up on time. Moving the meeting takes a minute instead of ruining the session.
Anyone with a meeting in five minutes
No time to sign up and confirm an email. Here you do not have to.
How Joyin differs from Telemost
A meeting without an account
The host needs no Yandex ID and no sign-in of any kind. Telemost cannot create a meeting without an account.
Join from any browser
A guest opens the link on a phone or computer and types a name. Nothing to install.
Server-side recording
One button in any browser, the file appears in the dashboard. Telemost records to the device: up to 30 minutes in Chrome, not available in Firefox or on phones.
Breakout groups
Split the meeting into pairs or teams with a task and a timer, then bring everyone back. Free.
Independent infrastructure
Joyin servers are not tied to Yandex: when there is an outage there, everything works here. The nearest server is picked automatically.
Live streams
Go live from a browser or OBS to hundreds of viewers by link, with no separate service.
Where Telemost is stronger
No account, no sign-up · No time limit · Server-side recording from any browser · Free, up to 100 participants

Questions about Telemost and Joyin
Telemost is not working, what do I do right now?
Create a meeting in Joyin and send participants the new link. No sign-up is needed and guests join from the browser. The whole thing takes less than a minute.
Do participants need to register?
No. A guest opens the link in a browser, types a name and joins. Only the host needs an account, and only for history and recordings.
Is there a time limit?
No. A meeting lasts as long as you need. Telemost has no time limit either; the differences are elsewhere: account, recording, groups.
How does recording work?
One button in any browser, and it runs on the server. The file appears in the host's dashboard and is kept for 3 days, or 30 days with a Summary pack.
How many people can join a meeting?
Up to 100 participants. For larger audiences there are live streams: viewers watch by link without sign-up.
Does Joyin depend on Yandex?
No. Joyin runs its own servers in Tashkent and in other countries, and we keep adding new ones. A meeting needs no sign-in at all.
