As some of you may have noticed, Tribe shifted from asynchronous to synchronous messaging 2 months ago using fully in-house technology. Since then, the team has been heads down polishing this first prototype.
We quickly realized that there are many pain points people experience every day when video calling others, especially from Skype and Hangouts. Ask anyone, people are not fully satisfied with these old (but legendary) products. Whether it’s kids at school, spread out families, or teammates at work, they all agree that they use these services by default.
Here are the results of our experiments to improve the video calling experience. It’s available now on your mobile devices (iOS & Android), as well as from your desktops (Chrome & Firefox) where you can start a group video call in one click, without any account, for free.
Looking beyond Tribe’s walkie‑talkie vibe? Try Zoom for robust meetings, Skype for free calls and chat, and Mmhmm to level up presentations. Prefer instant, in‑browser chats with no signup? Hello 3.0 keeps it lightweight.
