Question

I'm looking for a video chat system that supports 1 on 1 chats and does not require any logins.

Currently we use Google Hangouts or Skype for interviews, but we can't always assume the candidate will have a Google account or have Skype installed. Yes we can always make people download and/or create accounts prior to the interview, but we'd like something that doesn't take any work on the interviewees end.

Are there any web services that support this? Any APIs available that we can build a simple web portal around? Paid is ok, but free is preferred.

Also, no fancy features needed. We just need two people to be able to see and talk to each other. I.E., no need for text chat, file sharing, etc.

Explanation / Answer

AwesomeTalk does this. From my experience with it, it works very well, the video and audio quality is clear and I've noticed little to no stuttering or lag. It's just as you ask, nothing fancy, just straight 1 to 1 video chat. Works on all major browsers and even has a chrome extension.
