Products that do what Chat Envy - Simple browser based video chat does
I decided to build Chat Envy this weekend to get a feel for the OpenTok API. Chat Envy is a simple web based video chat platform that allows users to quickly setup a chatroom. What do you think? Would you use it? Any feedback is appreciated. http://chatenvy.com

This is something fun I’ve been hacking on recently: ridiculously simple group chat. Go to http://faces.io and then get your friends to do the same. That’s it! :-D Currently works best in Chrome. It’s definitely beta status at best. Audio can get weird—be ready to mute. ;-) Let me know what you think!

We wanted an easy way to connect #channels/rooms between different chat teams, so we made Sameroom. It's like plumbing for chat—allowing you to connect different services in interesting ways (e.g. Hipchat Slack, Flowdock IRC, Slack Slack). Would love to hear what you all think about it.

I always find myself frustrated by how many steps I have to take to video chat with someone online. There's always too much software to download and install, and too many accounts to remember. The high-end, high-price Cisco conferencing systems I've used are especially fragile. So I built Vidless in a weekend for myself, and I hope you find it useful too. Just create a room and share the link, and you'll be chatting in seconds. You can invite several people (I haven't really tested a max yet), and chats on Vidless are always private. Enjoy!

It's friendly web based group chat (with apps for Mac, Windows, and iOS) that's not limited to a single business. It basically offers the power of XMPP with a simple UI. chatsimply.com Please check it out and let me know what you think!

I am Amit, Co-Founder of Chatterrapp (https://chatterrapp.com). We are building a platform to let users have video chat with others sharing similar interests. Currently we are accepting sign ups for our Beta product. We tried many of existing platforms similar to ours and came across some major flaws like: - annoying chatbots posing as real users - obscene/offensive behaviour - irrelevant matches - no regard for user’s preferences/interests - non-persistent user profiles So we went ahead and surveyed as well as interviewed hundreds of potential users and found a common…

I was tired of paying monthly subscriptions for all my AI tools and I wanted to pay just for what I use so I combined the AI chats I use to create my own chat - MyChat (pun intended) MyChat is an all-in-one chat bot that has a pay-as-you-go business model. The tech stack I used was NextJS, TypeScript, MongoDB, Clerk, TailwindCSS, ShadCN, Stripe, the OpenAI API hosted on Hostinger with Coolify. The code base is currently around 3500 lines of code. (About 500 of them are redundant code) The web app itself is not complicated the only complex thing in it is the math that's mapping the different…
