Questions people ask
What's the fastest way to talk to a stranger right now?
Random video chat - OmeTV or Chatroulette put a person on your screen in seconds without an account. If you'd rather not be on camera, Wakie calls you by voice and TalkWithStranger is text only.
Is everything on this site free?
Almost. The random chat sites are free to use, with paid filters you don't need. AI companions have free tiers. Cam sites are free to watch. We say exactly what costs money on every page.
Is this site for adults?
Most of it is for everyone. The adult sections - live cam and unfiltered AI chat - are marked 18+ on the page and in the list, and they're kept separate from everything else.
How do you choose what to list?
We use them. Then we rank by how quickly you get a real person (or a good AI), whether it works without sign-up, and how it's moderated. Here's the full method.
