Summary

When a CEO at Pitch, a collaborative presentation platform, requested the integration of video calls, the engineering team was initially skeptical about its feasibility. However, after reviewing Daily, a developer platform that provides cross-platform functionality and seamless transitions between peer-to-peer and SFU connections, they decided to integrate it into their product. With Daily's APIs, the Pitch team was able to build a polished, battle-tested, and developer-friendly video calling feature in just three weeks, which has become an integral part of their product, emphasizing elements like frictionless user experience, beautiful design, and multiplayer collaboration. The integration of live video calls has transformed presentations and how teams work together, aligning with Pitch's core values of giving users great tools and creating a seamless user experience.
