What "free" usually means

Almost every video chat service calls itself free, and most of them are telling a version of the truth. It is worth knowing which version before you start, because the bill tends to arrive at the interesting moment rather than at the door.

  • Coins, gems or tokens. Chatting is free; something you will want within ten minutes is not. Common in the app-based services.
  • Free, but the filters are not. Matching by gender or country is the usual paywall, because it is the feature people will pay for.
  • A free trial that wants a card. If a random video chat asks for card details before showing you anybody, that is the product.
  • Adverts. Fair enough, and at least it is visible.
  • You are the product. The least visible one. Trackers, third-party analytics and data sold on — free at the till, paid for elsewhere.

None of these are scandals. They are business models, and a service with no business model has its own problem, which is further down this page.

What Spoqi costs

 Spoqi
AccountNone — there is no way to make one
Card detailsNever asked for, nowhere to enter them
Coins or tokensNone
Premium tierNone. There is nothing you unlock by paying
AdvertsNone
Trackers or third-party scriptsNone
MeasurementDaily totals only — no record that your visit happened
Time limitsNone. No daily cap, no queue to skip
What is stored about youA random device id; an address only where a ban is involved

That is the whole list. There is no second page of terms where it stops being true.

So who is paying for it

We are. Servers cost money, the media server costs money and automated moderation costs money per frame, and none of that is covered by advertising or by anything you might buy, because there is nothing to buy.

That is worth saying plainly rather than dressing up as generosity, because it has a consequence you should know about: a service with no revenue is a service nobody can promise will still be here in two years. We have no plans to close and no intention of quietly introducing coins later. But a site that tells you it is free forever is telling you something it cannot know.

What it does buy you meanwhile: nothing about you is worth collecting, because there is no advertiser to sell it to. The privacy policy is short for the same reason.

How to check any of this yourself

Not just here — this works on any service claiming to be free.

  • Open it in a private window. If it will not show you a single person before asking for an email, the sign-up is the product.
  • Look for the word "unlock". It is the reliable tell for a coin model, and it is usually attached to filters.
  • Open your browser's network tab. Count the requests going to domains that are not the site you are on. That is the number that tells you who else is in the room. On Spoqi it is zero — we count how busy the site is on our own server, and the privacy page says exactly what that amounts to.
  • Read what the privacy page says is kept, not what the front page says is free. The two are usually written by different people.

Ours is here, and it is short enough to read in full.

What you get for nothing

  • Random one-to-one video chat, with next whenever you want it.
  • Nudity detection that runs in your own browser before anything is transmitted, and a second check on our servers.
  • Three video layouts, light and dark, and text chat beside the video.
  • Reporting that still works after you have moved on.
  • Nothing recorded: no video, no screenshots, no transcript.
  • An embed for your own site, also free, with no API key.

No sign-up, no card, no catch beyond a small pool.

Questions people ask

Is Spoqi really free?
Yes. No account, no card, no adverts, no coins, no subscription and no premium tier. There is nothing on the site that costs money, and nothing that becomes available if you pay.
What is the catch?
That the pool of people is small, because the site is new. That is the honest catch and there is not a second one hiding behind it.
Do you make money from my data?
No. There is no advertising, no tracking and no third-party scripts on the site, and nothing about you goes to anybody for measurement. We count daily totals — how many pages were viewed, how many chats started — which cannot be taken apart into individual visits. Nothing about you is sold because nothing about you is collected.
Do I need to give a card?
No, and there is nowhere to enter one. Anything asking for card details for a free video chat trial is worth walking away from.
How is it paid for then?
Out of pocket. Servers and moderation cost money and nobody is covering it but us, which is worth knowing because it is also the reason we cannot promise this runs forever.
Are there limits on how long I can chat?
No time limits, no daily cap and no queue you can pay to skip. Press next as often as you like.
