ChatHub brought random chat to millions. BAE takes it further with faster matching, better video quality, and a privacy model that actually protects you.
ChatHub users consistently report the same problems. Here is what they tell us when they switch.
Waiting 30 to 90 seconds between connections kills momentum. Many users give up before finding anyone worth talking to.
Video quality drops unpredictably, especially during peak hours. Buffering and freezing are common complaints.
Free users encounter frequent prompts to upgrade. Basic features feel artificially limited to drive subscription purchases.
Ghost accounts and inactive sessions inflate the user count. Many connections sit silent or disconnect immediately.
The mobile browser experience is noticeably slower than desktop. Touch controls feel unresponsive and the layout is cramped.
Language and gender filters are locked behind payment. Free users get matched randomly with no targeting options.
Built from the ground up with speed, quality, and privacy as the core design principles.
Our matching infrastructure maintains a live pool of active users. Most connections complete in under 5 seconds, day or night.
WebRTC with adaptive bitrate control keeps your video sharp on any connection. We prioritize clarity over raw resolution when bandwidth is limited.
Text chat, video chat, and basic matching are free with no time limits. No artificial restrictions to force upgrades.
End-to-end encryption, no IP logging, no session storage. Your conversations stay between you and the person you are talking to.
