Hi Vercel community, I’m Amit Kumar, founder of Stranger Talk. I’d like to share the project and get feedback on its first-visit experience.
What it does
Stranger Talk is a free browser-based text chat platform for adults aged 18+. Visitors can start a conversation without signing up. There are three ways to use it:
- Random chat for meeting someone new.
- Private rooms for a conversation using a shared room code.
- Group conversations for joining a shared discussion.
The public website is deployed on Vercel. The product focus is a lightweight text experience that people can use without turning on a camera.
What I’d like feedback on
The important part of a chat product is what happens around the messages. A visitor needs to understand which mode they chose, whether they are waiting for someone, and when a conversation has ended.
If you try it, I’d appreciate feedback on these specific points:
- Is the difference between random chat, private rooms and groups clear on your first visit?
- Are the waiting and connection states understandable on mobile?
- What would you change to make leaving or switching a conversation easier to understand?

I’m sharing this as the founder and would welcome practical UI feedback from other builders.
