Ask HN: Does anyone know a web solution for video chat?

2 pointsby fapi1974over 8 years ago
Does anyone know of a solution in which a web visitor can enter their Skype, Facetime, or GoogleHangouts details into a website widget that will initiate a video chat connection with a support agent in whatever channel the user indicates?

I don&#x27;t know of such a solution. However, my own side project &#x2F; startup ( <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;keveo.tv&#x2F;en&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;keveo.tv&#x2F;en&#x2F;</a> ) is based on such a concept :) - a website widget where you can immediately initiate a video chat connection with a support agent. It&#x27;s based on WebRTC, so it doesn&#x27;t work on iPhones, but it works well everywhere else. If you want to try it out, mail us at info at keveo.tv :)<p>There are several like it, some are free. The best one in my opinion is Appear.in, but they don&#x27;t provide a widget.<p>Here&#x27;s a vendor directory:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;webrtchacks.com&#x2F;vendor-directory&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;webrtchacks.com&#x2F;vendor-directory&#x2F;</a>
