What is Linkello?

Linkello is a lightweight, browser-based audio and video calling service developed by Bistri SAS. It’s designed for simplicity, privacy, and minimal friction — enabling users to start secure calls without needing to install software or create an account.

Key Features & Capabilities

• One-Click Call Creation
  Users can generate a call link in seconds just pick “video” or “audio,” give the call a title, and click “Create.” This link can then be shared with others, and they can join directly via browser.

• Browser-Based (No Install Needed)
  Linkello works entirely in supported web browsers. There’s no need to download a desktop application for basic use.

• Mobile Support via Browser
  It supports mobile browsers: Linkello works on Safari 11+ (iOS) and Chrome / Firefox on Android.

• Screen Sharing
  During calls, participants can share their screen. However, only one person can share at a time.

• End-to-End Encryption / Security
  Communication is encrypted to ensure confidentiality. Linkello emphasizes privacy and does not require users to sign up for the free version.

• Permanent Links (Paid)
  In the free version, call links are valid for 24 hours. But with the Linkello Office plan, you can get permanent links (i.e., links that do not expire).

• Call Logs, Recording, and File Exchange (Office plan)
  The Office Essential plan supports:

  • Call recording (video/audio)

  • Recording chats and file transfers

  • Logs and statistics on calls

• Remote Camera Interface (Office plan)
  A “remote camera” mode is available for more professional calls, giving greater flexibility and control.

• Account System for Office / Medical
  While the free version doesn’t require account creation, users subscribing to Linkello Office or Linkello Medical must create an account.

• Eco-Responsibility
  Linkello promotes itself as a more environmentally friendly way to meet remotely — emphasizing that virtual conversations help reduce carbon footprint compared to travel.

Use Cases

Based on its design, Linkello is well-suited for:

• Quick, ad-hoc calls between individuals (e.g., freelancers, clients, personal communications).

• Professionals who want a lightweight call tool without forcing participants to install anything.

• Telehealth / medical professionals (via the Medical edition) who need secure video consultations.

• Remote work / education scenarios where privacy and minimal setup matter more than large-group collaboration.

Security & Hosting

• Linkello emphasizes secure communications via end-to-end encryption.

• For medical users, Linkello Medical is hosted on HADS-certified infrastructure (Coreye) to handle health data securely.

• According to their legal notice, their call platform is hosted on Amazon Web Services in a European datacenter.

Summary

Linkello is a minimalist yet powerful web-based calling tool that allows users to make calls without installing software or creating an account in its free mode. For professional use, its Office plan adds valuable features such as permanent links, call recording, and interface customization. It also offers a healthcare-focused version designed specifically for teleconsultation, supported by stricter data-hosting requirements. Overall, Linkello is ideal for users who need fast, secure, and frictionless communication, though it may be less suitable for complex workflows, large meetings, or environments requiring deeper integrations.
