What is the difference between Vonage Video API and Meetings API

Both the Meetings API and the Video API allow you to use high-quality interactive video meetings in your web applications.

Meetings API is an extremely low-code video conferencing solution, ideal for those who want plug-and-play video with limited customization.  If you need a video solution in your applications, but don't have time or resources to build out video capabilities, then the Meetings API could be right for you.

Vonage Video API is a global  real-time video platform with comprehensive APIs packaged into SDKs for web, mobile, desktop and IoT devices. Video API allows developers complete flexibility in configuring their sessions, including for  Interactive Broadcast, screen capture, AI audio and media manipulation and detailed reporting. The Video API is ideal for those who want more customization and flexibility, but it will take more development effort.
