Hi Product Hunt — I'm the one developer behind Veilr. I'll be honest about why I started: I was in a financial hole and needed a way out. Somewhere in the middle of building it, I fell in love with the thing itself — with the moment two people who share no language read each other and keep talking. That's what I'm here for now. When the original Omegle shut down I kept seeing the same request: "something like it that isn't dead — and where I can actually talk to people from other countries." The second half is the part nobody solved, so that's what I built. Text, voice or video with someone from anywhere: your messages can reach them translated, and on calls live captions show what they're saying in your language — even in a voice call with no camera at all. What's honest to say: we're small. The best time to find people today is 16:00–20:00 UTC — I'll be in the queue myself, say hi. Sign-in is required, with a social account you already have (the sign-in screen shows which ones are open); it's the abuse control I could afford. Captions and translation are free to start (five minutes and a run of translations per account), then a Boost pass or a minute pack. And when a conversation is worth keeping, you both add each other as contacts — the chat and the calls stay, still translated. A few people already use that to practise a language with someone they actually like talking to. One more thing: if you bring people with you, the affiliate program pays you. New accounts earn referral rewards as free credit; switch the reward form to money (it applies to future purchases only) and you get 20% of the list price of what your invitees buy, in USDT. It's in your account under Invite friends → Affiliate program. I'd love to hear: which language pair did you try, and did the captions keep up?

Veilr launches Oct 6 — what would make you trust a translated chat with a stranger?

Hi, I'm Vasiliy the one developer behind Veilr.

It's a random chat (text, voice or video) where language stops being the wall: your messages can arrive in the other person's language, and on a call you read live captions of what they say, translated into yours. Web + Android, 16 interface languages. The launch here is scheduled for October 6.
