Our take
Pick 100ms if realtime / edtech / telehealth teams who will stay inside 10,000 free conferencing minutes (plus 300 free recording minutes) while they open a first Prebuilt room, then pay $0.004 / min after the bucket (audio-like $0.0012 / min on the same tile). Pick Mux if video / product teams who will stay on pay-as-you-go (no platform fee, no card to start, $20 monthly usage credit, 100,000 delivery minutes free)
