Chatroulette alternative
Chatroulette still works, so this page will not pretend otherwise. It is the original — launched in 2009 — and it rebuilt itself around automated moderation rather than closing. Here is what Spoqi does differently, and where they are still ahead.
Free, no account, works in this browser. 18+.
The same moderation vendor, arranged differently
Chatroulette moderates with Hive's AI. So does Spoqi. Any page telling you we catch nudity and they do not would be lying to you, and you would find out in five minutes.
The difference is where the first check runs. Server-side moderation, however good the model, samples video that has already been sent — the other person has seen it by the time anything is judged. Spoqi also runs a detector in your own browser, on frames that have not left your device, and cuts the outgoing video in about a second.
The smaller things
- Three layouts. Side by side, stacked, or their video full screen with yours in the corner. It remembers which you picked.
- Light and dark. Follows your device, with a switch if you disagree.
- No account. Nothing to sign up for and nothing stored about you beyond a random id.
- Report after the fact. The button keeps working once you have moved on.
Where Chatroulette is still better
People. It has an audience built over sixteen years and Spoqi is new, which for a product whose whole value is that somebody is on the other end is not a small thing. If nobody is waiting when you press start, that is why.
Spoqi is not Chatroulette. We are a separate, independent service with no affiliation to it, and no connection to whoever runs it. We name it here because it is what people are looking for when they find this page.
