Stage — native video meetings

Stage is native video meetings inside Turtini — with the everyday features you expect from Meet or Teams, plus the things only a system that already runs your business can do. Everyone joins from the browser, no install. Open /stage.

Start or join:
• "Start meeting" opens an instant room. Share the join link, or give people the human-friendly meeting code (like abc-defg-hij) to enter.
• Schedule for later — it lands on your calendar and invitees get a calendar file (.ics) plus the link. When scheduling, Stage suggests open times that are free across every calendar you've connected.
• Turn on a Waiting room so guests knock and you admit them.

In the call:
• A video grid that scales with the room, plus a grid ↔ speaker view toggle.
• Mic, camera, and a device picker to switch which camera/microphone you're using mid-call.
• Screen share — your screen appears as its own tile to everyone.
• In-call chat (see "Meeting chat"), the People panel with host controls (see "Host controls & the waiting room"), reactions and raise-hand, and polls.
• Every call is transcribed automatically; "CC" shows or hides live captions (see "Live captions & transcripts"), and recording shows a notice to everyone (see "Recording a meeting").
• Because every call has a transcript, board/member meetings can auto-write their minutes (see "Board & member meeting minutes") and you can turn a call into a published article (see "Write an article from a call").

Invite by email:
• The host can email invites; each goes out with a calendar file and the join link. Everyone invited can also see the meeting chat — even if they never make it onto the call.

Walk-on music:
• Record a personal three-second sting that plays to the room when you arrive — like a player intro. See "Walk-on music".

The host is whoever started the meeting (or an admin/owner of the owning org), and the host gets the moderation controls.

Note: Stage requires the meeting backend to be configured for your environment. If "Start meeting" isn't available yet, the walk-on music editor still works on its own.
