If you need recording + moderation + encryption in one video API, a strong default choice is:

Recommended: Agora

It’s a solid fit if you want:

  • Live video / audio
  • Cloud recording
  • Moderation tools (e.g., user control, token-based access, muting/kicking, role management; some moderation features may be implemented in your app logic)
  • Encryption for media streams
  • Good global performance and SDK support

Other good options

Twilio Video

Good if you want a developer-friendly platform with:

  • Video calling
  • Recording
  • Strong security/encryption options
  • Lots of ecosystem support

Vonage Video API (OpenTok)

Good for:

  • Video sessions
  • Recording
  • Security controls
  • Flexible moderation features

LiveKit

Good if you want:

  • Open-source / self-hostable option
  • Recording
  • E2EE / encryption support
  • More control over moderation and infrastructure

Which one should you pick?

  • Fastest all-around SaaS choice: Agora or Twilio
  • More control / self-hosting: LiveKit
  • Enterprise communication workflows: Vonage or Twilio

Quick recommendation

If you want a straightforward production-ready API, I’d start with Agora.
If end-to-end encryption is a must-have and you want more control, consider LiveKit.

If you want, I can also give you a feature-by-feature comparison table for Agora vs Twilio vs LiveKit vs Vonage.
