A consolation build is possible, but the paid product's decisive value sits outside a solo rebuild. For Demio, run a small live webinar on self-managed video and collect registrations. The hard boundary is webinar media infrastructure, registration, engagement, replay hosting, analytics, and support, plus real-time media infrastructure and reliability.

# Demio indie build

## Goal

Build the smallest trustworthy replacement for the core Demio workflow for one developer or a tiny team.

## Scope

Run a small live webinar on self-managed video, collect registrations, issue signed room links, and keep recordings only when every participant is clearly informed.

## Quick start

1. Install the documented dependencies.
2. Copy `.env.example` to `.env`.
3. Run the development command chosen during implementation.
4. Complete the acceptance checks in `BUILD_PLAN.md`.

## Honest limits

This build deliberately does not replace:
- webinar media infrastructure, registration, engagement, replay hosting, analytics, and support
- global low-latency media network
- dial-in and telephony
- large webinars
- transcription, support, and compliance

If those capabilities are essential, use Jitsi Meet instead of pretending the gap is solved.

why people still pay

People still pay for Demio because video products survive because real-time media quality and global reliability are infrastructure businesses, not weekend interface projects. The recurring cost buys TURN capacity, codecs, browsers, packet loss, scaling, recording, consent, abuse, monitoring, and incident response, not just the visible interface.

questions
Vibecode Demio

Not really. Demio's value is not the code: Recheck price before merge. See the honest breakdown above.

How much does Demio cost?

Demio costs about $63/month (Starter, checked 2026-08-14), which is $756 per year.

What do I lose by replacing Demio?

Honestly: webinar media infrastructure, registration, engagement, replay hosting, analytics, and support; global low-latency media network; dial-in and telephony; large webinars; transcription, support, and compliance. If any of those are load-bearing for you, keep paying.

Is there an open-source alternative to Demio?

Yes: Jitsi Meet (Widely deployed open-source video-conferencing platform.). Using prior art is also vibecoding; the prompt is for when you want it exactly your way.
