How random video chat works

What happens from Google sign-in to a one-to-one video connection on Koko Meet.

Koko Meet pairs two people who are both looking for a conversation. The pair is random. You are not placed in a group room, and you do not browse profiles.

From sign-in to a call

You sign in with Google and complete the required profile, including gender and country. Those details are stored on the account. They are not used to filter matches.

When you start a search, the app looks for one other available person. If nobody is waiting, you stay in the queue. When someone is found, the browsers negotiate a video connection. If a relay is configured and a direct connection cannot be made, media may pass through that relay for the length of the call. The site does not store the video or audio.

Next, End, and what is kept

Next closes the current conversation and starts another search. End leaves without a new search. Koko Meet keeps a match record, such as when a call started or ended. Text chat from the match is stored with that match and deleted on the retention schedule, currently 90 days. Moderators do not receive that transcript with a report.

The product is marketed for adults in India. Matching is still random, so a partner in a particular city or language is not guaranteed. Read Random video chat and Privacy.
