Free video chat with strangers, checked at both ends

No card, no trial, no account needed to start. Random calls, avatars, topics and private rooms are free; the only paid things are gifts and Premium, and you can talk to people forever without either.

Start a random call

What free covers

What costs money

Diamonds buy gifts for someone on a call or a stream, and the receiver keeps most of the value as coins they can cash out after verification. Premium adds a gender filter on unpeeled searches, no skip wait, a rematch, extra avatar parts and an optional badge. Neither is needed to use Peel.

How a call on Peel works

  1. You are an avatar first. Your camera drives an avatar that copies your expressions, and your voice can go out in a persona. The other person sees the avatar, not your face.
  2. Peel one step at a time. Background, then face, then real voice, then a private room you both keep. Each step needs both of you to agree, and either of you can go back at any moment.
  3. Or skip the mask. Turn on "Show my face from the start" and you are matched only with people who chose the same, so nobody sees a face they did not opt into.

What Peel does about the usual problems

Nudity. Every call is checked on both phones, in the call itself. One hit masks the camera and warns; a second ends the call and keeps that person off the grid.
Under-18s. A face age check with a liveness step runs before random calls, for guests too, not a tick box. Three failed tries lock the device for 24 hours; all three under 18 refuse it for good.
Screenshots of your face. What leaves your phone is cut to the step you agreed to: black frames while masked, and at the background step the face is painted over before the video is sent, not just hidden on the other side.
Reports. Reporting sends the last seconds of what the checks saw, and bans key on the device, not only the account, so a fresh sign-up on the same phone does not wash it off.

Questions people ask

Is it really free?

Yes. Talking to people costs nothing. Gifts and Premium are optional.

Do I need an app store?

No. Peel runs in the browser at peelcam.com and installs to your home screen if you want it there.

Is there an age limit?

Yes, 18+, and it is checked with the camera before random calls rather than asked.
