Nobody talks over anyone.
One person holds the stick; everyone else listens until the turn is complete. Not a rule you have to enforce — something the room can see.
The talking-stick circle, online
One stick.
One voice.
A calmer way
to meet online.
A video room built on the talking-stick method, for facilitators and anyone who holds space for a group. You hold the circle; the room holds the turn.

Why a circle, not a call
What changes when the stick is visible.
The quiet people speak.
The turn goes round the circle, so a seat is never skipped. The people who were waiting for a gap stop waiting.
You hold the circle, not the software.
Flow, timer and the shared centre are set before anyone arrives. Once the circle starts there is almost nothing left to operate.
The product, in the room
A circle you understand at a glance.
Real faces, one shared center, and a clear sense of whose turn it is. Everything else stays quietly at the edge.

Shared centerThe method
From link to listening.
Familiar enough to begin in seconds. Different enough to transform the conversation.
Create the room
Name the circle, set an optional timer, and prepare the shared center.
Share one link
Guests enter without an account, a download, or a setup ritual.
Pass the stick
One person speaks. Everyone else listens until the turn is complete.
The practice
Old in principle. Alive in every room.
The circle is older than any of the technology around it. Nothing below changes that — it only says what a group may invite in.
Two ways to sit
The circle is complete without AI.
Everything on this page so far works with nobody in the room but people. The circle does not need any of what follows — but a group that wants to can invite it in, deliberately and visibly.
Default
Human Mode
The whole product.
- One visible Talking Stick
- Sunwise, earthwise, or open flow
- Optional, gentle turn timers
- Nothing is transcribed, and nothing is recorded unless you start it
By invitation
AI With AI invited
Only when the circle asks for it.
- Milo takes a seat with a role you write, and speaks only when the stick reaches it
- Live translation, chosen per listener — still Beta — In beta: it works today, but quality and availability can still vary, and we may change or pause it while we improve it. The circle itself is unaffected.
- Every AI role is visible to everyone in the room
- Turn it off and the circle carries on, unchanged
There is no hidden middle. Nothing listens until a person in the room turns it on — and while it is on, the room can see that it is on.
Made for people who hold space
Built for facilitators. Used well beyond them.
If holding a group is your work, this is built for your week — not for a product demo.
Facilitators & coaches
Hold the room, not the tech.
Protected speaking time, simple invitations, and a structure people understand immediately.
For facilitators & coachesTeams & leaders
Hear the voices meetings miss.
Retros, decisions, and difficult conversations where quiet people have equal space.
Therapists & group practices
Protect sensitive speaking time.
A visible, facilitator-led container for groups that need clarity, trust, and room to finish.
Education & communities
Make attention a shared practice.
A calm container for learning groups, communities, and circles across languages.
Meaningful conversations
Give difficult rooms a gentler rhythm.
For the conversations where interruption changes more than the agenda.
A different meeting physics
When one person speaks,
the whole room changes.
The circle replaces competition for airtime with a visible, trustworthy rhythm. Nobody has to push in. Nobody disappears. Listening becomes part of the structure—not a polite request.
Privacy is part of the practice
What is said in the circle stays in the circle.
Video and audio are encrypted in transit and relayed through Cloudflare’s realtime network—forwarded, not stored. Recording is off unless the host turns it on.

Try the method with a small circle — about four circles of six a month.
- Video circles, always free
- Up to 6 participantsHow many people can be in one circle at the same time, you included. Guests never need an account and never pay.
- 30-minute sessionsHow long a single circle may run before it closes. Nothing else is limited by it — you can hold as many circles as your monthly hours allow.
- 12 participant-hours each monthParticipant-hours are participants × hours, added up across all your circles in a month. An hour with eight people uses eight; an hour on your own uses one. We count it this way because a bigger circle genuinely costs more to run — everyone receives everyone else's video.

Questions, answered
The quiet details.
01Do guests need an account?+
No. Guests join with one link or a six-digit room code. Only the facilitator needs an account.
02Can the platform be white-labelled?+
Not yet. Rooms carry your circle's name today, but your own logo and visual identity are still in preparation. If that is what a wider program needs, talk to us and we will tell you honestly where it stands.
03Do I need to install anything?+
No. The circle runs in the browser — yours and your guests'. There is no app, no plugin and no download, on any device.
04How many people fit in a circle?+
Six on the free plan, ten on Circle, thirteen on Practitioner. The shape holds either way: everyone stays in view around one shared centre, and the turn stays visible no matter how many seats there are.
05Is our conversation private?+
Video and audio are encrypted in transit and relayed through Cloudflare's realtime network, which forwards the streams rather than storing them. A session is only recorded when the host starts a recording; those files are kept for seven days and can be deleted sooner. The platform is built in Germany under European privacy standards.
06What if someone has never been in a circle before?+
That is the normal case, and the room is built for it. The stick is visible, the turn order is visible, and the timer is visible — so nobody has to be told the rules twice. Most groups need one round to settle in.
07Can I cancel, and what happens to my rooms?+
Cancel anytime; the plan runs to the end of the period you paid for. Your recordings and transcripts stay available for their normal seven days, and you can export them before the plan ends.
