Nice start, but some criticisms:<p>- This just seems like a wrapper around webrtc, with some presence stuff thrown in.<p>- Your website does not mention anywhere that the majority of web users do not support webrtc <a href="http://caniuse.com/#feat=stream" rel="nofollow">http://caniuse.com/#feat=stream</a><p>- Is this a product? Why would I use this? Are you actually aiming at replacing skype? If not, why target it in your slogan? Do you intend on having users embed it in their site? Make paid chat applications with your platform?

A bit of a side note, but how does WebRTC integrate with Twilio Client? Twilio Client was modified to use WebRTC as an alternative to the original Twilio Client, which integrated with Flash to connect calls. Introduction here (<a href="http://www.twilio.com/blog/2012/11/webrtc-for-twilio-client-now-available.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.twilio.com/blog/2012/11/webrtc-for-twilio-client-...</a>)<p>And how does your product differ from Twilio Client?

Does the developer have access to the raw data stream as well? I.e, can I apply filters the audio or record the incoming data?<p>If not, will I be able to run this concurrently with multiple audio gathering programs? Should probably google if a computer's input source can be multiplexed in that way :)

this could be a great way to deal with the world of pain that is WebRTC
