Daily's WebRTC API platform offers several benefits over Zoom, including superior support for evolving use cases, more control over call quality optimization, and personalized, dedicated support. Daily's primary focus is on enabling developers to build real-time video and audio features into their own apps, rather than providing a pre-built UI like Zoom. With its robust REST API and developer-first approach, Daily provides a scalable and customizable solution for building video applications. Additionally, Daily offers features such as virtual backgrounds, breakout rooms, language configuration, live captioning, and downloadable chat logs, which are not available in Zoom's UI-based solution. Overall, Daily is a more versatile and extensible platform than Zoom, making it an attractive option for developers who need to build complex video applications.
