Our Story
About TikaCam
TikaCam is a free video chat platform that puts you in control. Founded in January 2024, we're building a safer, more private way to meet people online—where you choose who to talk to, not an algorithm.
Our Mission
To create meaningful human connections through safe, private video chat—where you have complete control over your experience.
When Omegle shut down in November 2023 after 14 years, millions of people lost their way to spontaneously connect with strangers around the world. We saw an opportunity to build something better.
TikaCam launched in January 2024 with a simple but powerful idea: what if you could see who's online before you connect? Our live picture wall gives you that control, ending the frustration of endless "Next" clicking on random chat sites.
Our Values
Privacy First
End-to-end encryption. Peer-to-peer connections. We can't see your calls even if we wanted to.
User Control
You choose who to talk to. No algorithms, no random matching, no unwanted connections.
Safety
AI moderation, one-click blocking, and community guidelines keep the platform safe for adults.
Free Forever
No premium tiers, no coins, no paywalls. Everyone gets the same full experience.
Global Community
Connect with people from 120+ countries. Break down borders through conversation.
Simplicity
No signup, no downloads, no friction. Start chatting in seconds from any browser.
Our Journey
Omegle shuts down after 14 years. Millions of users left without a platform for spontaneous video connections.
TikaCam launches with the revolutionary live picture wall concept—choose who you talk to instead of random matching.
Reach 50,000 video calls completed. Community grows to users from 100+ countries.
Launch AI-powered moderation system. Expand to 5,000+ daily active users.
Surpass 100,000 video calls. Users from 120+ countries. Average session duration of 12 minutes.
Continuing to improve safety, privacy, and user experience. Building the future of video chat.
How We're Different
The Live Picture Wall
Our core innovation is simple but game-changing. Instead of randomly pairing you with whoever happens to be next (like Omegle or Chatroulette did), TikaCam shows you a live wall of everyone currently online. You can see real-time snapshots, browse at your own pace, and click on whoever seems interesting to you.
This gives you:
- Control: You decide who to talk to
- Efficiency: No more endless skipping
- Safety: Avoid problematic users before connecting
- Spontaneity: Still meet random interesting people from around the world
True Privacy
We built TikaCam with privacy as a core principle, not an afterthought:
- End-to-end encryption: All video calls use WebRTC peer-to-peer connections with AES-256 encryption
- No server recording: Your video and audio never touch our servers—they travel directly between you and the other person
- No personal data: No signup required, no email, no phone number, no profile
- AI moderation respects privacy: Our AI only reviews the public picture wall snapshots, never your private calls
