## What it is
A decentralized browser extension that lets visitors of the same website chat anonymously via WebRTC peer-to-peer, end-to-end encrypted communication with no central server. It turns any website into a shared chat room.

## Use cases
- chat with other visitors on any website
- add anonymous chat rooms to websites without a server
- p2p encrypted messaging in the browser
- talk to people browsing the same page
- decentralized chat without a central server

## When to choose
- you want serverless, end-to-end encrypted chat tied to websites
- you want a browser extension for Chrome, Edge, or Firefox
- you value privacy and decentralized peer-to-peer communication

## When to avoid

- you need moderated or identity-verified chat
- you need chat across different sites or apps rather than per-site rooms
