Free Online Meetings & Video Calls | Microsoft Teams

Microsoft Teams is a free online meeting platform that lets you start video calls, chat with participants, and share your screen. You can host group meetings for up to 60 minutes without paying anything, and anyone can join a call using just a meeting ID. It works directly in your web browser, so there's no need to download software for basic use, though a desktop app is available for more features.

The tool includes practical collaboration features like live captions in over 40 languages, file sharing, and screen sharing. Its standout feature is the integration of Microsoft Copilot for AI assistance. Copilot can help plan your meetings and turn recorded conversations into summarized notes, which is handy for keeping track of what was discussed.

Teams is useful for remote workers needing quick team huddles, friends organizing virtual game nights or watch parties, and students collaborating on group projects. The free version covers most casual needs, while paid plans unlock longer meeting times and advanced AI tools for business users.
