Agyata

An Omegle alternative, built around safety.

Anonymous 1:1 chat — text or video — with strangers. Separate mode-locked queues, a binding 18+ gate, and nothing written to a database.

Mode-locked queues

Text users never pair with video users. A safety decision, not a feature toggle.

Binding 18+ gate

Single-screen confirmation, logged. Cloudflare CSAM Scanning at the zone.

Nothing written

Rooms live in memory on a Durable Object. Close the tab, the room is gone.

What Agyata does differently

Not a drop-in Omegle clone. Three deliberate product choices.

Choice 1

Text and video are separate queues

On some platforms, a text user could be surprise-paired with a video request. Here, picking Text means you only pair with other Text users — no mid-chat mode flip. Video users match only with other video users.

Choice 2

Camera permission before queue

For video, your browser proves camera and mic permissions are live before the queue accepts you. This filters out bots and sleeper cameras and means users waiting to pair are actually ready to connect.

Choice 3

Evidence without storage

Report a video call and your browser computes a perceptual hash of the flagged frame. The frame never leaves your device — only the 64-bit hash reaches our moderation pipeline.

Questions

Is Agyata exactly like Omegle?

No. Agyata is 1:1 anonymous chat (text or video), but the product decisions differ: mode-locked queues, 18+ gating from the first tap, on-device perceptual hashing on reports, and Cloudflare CSAM Scanning at the edge. Also no "spy mode", no interest tags (v1), no group rooms.

Why did Omegle shut down?

Omegle closed in November 2023 after more than a decade facing abuse claims — including lawsuits over child safety failures. The closure left a large community looking for a more deliberate platform.

Is Agyata free like Omegle was?

Yes. Core 1:1 chat (text and video) is free and will remain free. A future Agyata+ subscription removes ads and unlocks soft pairing preferences, but pairing itself is never paywalled.

Can minors use Agyata?

No. 18+ only. The gate is enforced at entry and any report involving a minor is escalated immediately. If you are under 18, please do not use this site.

Do you save my IP or device details?

A hashed IP is kept for compliance (18+ confirmation timestamps). Device-scoped anon IDs live in IndexedDB on your device, not on our servers. No email, no phone, no profile.
