Inoffice - Voice chat for remote teams

Hi guys,
My website is finally ready for beta user!
Since the pandemic my company allow us to work remotely. Although it’s nice but it can get boring sometimes as I no longer have small talks with my colleague. Most of the remote software solution only focus on business meeting like Teams, Slack and Zoom. So I created a website with the attention to focus on the social aspect of your office environment. You can try it here https://www.inoffice.chat
There are some things that make it different from other solutions.

  • It is voice only. The reason for this is because I believe voice is less intrusive than video and not everyone is on their best looks when working remotely.
  • No calling concept, you can just click a button and voice chat instantly. I want to make the process of talking to your colleague as friction less as possible.
  • See who is talking with who and join instantly. Just like in real office, I’m hoping this would encourage you to talk more with your colleague.

Despite the lack of pretty UI, I hope you guys give it a try!

FYI I also posted this on LiveView thread but it wasn’t really user ready at that time.

Thanks!

Thanks. It’s using webRTC which is a peer to peer connection. There is no sound data that is send to the backend. Your sound is also muted in your side when you are not actively looking at the page.

Thanks!.

Yeah I agree. The original reason was to prevent user from accidentally broadcasting their sound to everyone when in the background. Having using it for some time it just doesn’t feel natural and with the added mute button I will definitely remove this in the next release(in a few hours).

Again thanks!, I’m going to post all of my update on this thread so do keep a look out.
Also, if you have any feature request feel free to comment here or PM me :grin:
