Embeddable video conferencing API and SDK for developers

Digital Samba's feed is all thought leadership; the product changelog is invisible here.

Current state
Digital Samba is a European WebRTC video-conferencing platform that leans hard on data sovereignty and EU compliance as differentiators. Its tracked feed carries no product releases — only blog content: WebRTC engineering explainers (SVC vs Simulcast, codecs, MoQ), digital-sovereignty and compliance pieces (CADA, EU open-source strategy, MiFID II), and European event recaps. The messaging is consistent and deliberate, but it says nothing about what's shipping in the product.
Where it's heading
The visible strategy is positioning, not release cadence: Digital Samba is planting a flag as the sovereignty-and-compliance choice for EU institutions — healthcare, courts, government — while demonstrating deep WebRTC engineering credibility through technical content. That's a coherent go-to-market narrative aimed at a regulated European buyer. But actual product movement can't be read from this feed at all.
Prediction
Expect the content engine to keep producing sovereignty, compliance, and WebRTC-engineering material timed to EU regulatory and event calendars. Judging real product direction requires the actual changelog, which this feed isn't.
