Compare · Supermeet vs Microsoft Teams
Teams is the video and chat tool inside Microsoft 365; its strongest argument is the suite around it. Supermeet is video on its own: meetings for up to 100 people, town halls and webinars for up to 5,000 attendees on the Webinars plan, a secure mode that makes leaked clips traceable, apps for Android, iPhone, iPad and Mac, SDKs, rupee pricing and servers in India. What you gain and what you give up, below.
The verdict
Secure mode needs no add-on (Free includes 5 secure meetings a month after sign-in): app-only attested joins; screen capture blocked where the operating system allows it (Android), detected and blacked out on iPhone and iPad, and traced by the mark everywhere; an invisible per-participant mark; and leak cases that a person reviews before anyone is named. Teams' watermark and capture protections are premium add-ons and the watermark is visible.
Town halls and webinars for up to 5,000 attendees on the broadcast path; the Webinars plan is ₹599 a month with 1,000 attendee-hours included, then 30 paise per attendee-hour, and is not priced by capacity tier.
Teams' Windows app, persistent chat and channels, files, Calendar and Outlook, dial-in and translation — Supermeet is video only.

Both give a team HD meetings, screen sharing, chat, hand raise, breakout rooms and cloud recording. Teams also runs as a Windows app and adds the suite — chat before and after the meeting, files, Outlook and Calendar. Supermeet adds a data-saver mode, a document mode that keeps shared text crisp, and secure meetings in the apps.
On Teams, webinars and town halls come with Microsoft 365 business and enterprise plans, with larger capacities and production features in Teams Premium. On Supermeet, the Webinars plan runs a town hall for up to 5,000 attendees, who join from a browser with no install, with registration pages, Q&A, polls and replays, over the broadcast path with a 2–4 second target delay.
Teams' protective features — visible watermarks, sensitivity labels and, where available, capture prevention — live in Teams Premium. Supermeet's secure mode needs no add-on: the join is attested; screen capture is blocked where the operating system allows it (Android), detected and blacked out on iPhone and iPad, and traced by the mark everywhere; and each participant's device draws an invisible mark unique to them, resolved through a leak case that a person reviews before anyone is named, with an appeal. In tests on synthetic video, the mark survived messaging-app-quality re-encodes down to 240p and a crop. It was also still read after a simulated camera angle; tests with real classroom footage and a real camera are still to run. Security & honest limits →
