I built "Omegle for political debates": you get matched with a person who disagrees, and Claude Haiku judges the debate live.

Really wanted to do a project using a claude API, so I got this done and ready! Like everyone else I miss Omegle, and like everyone else I've watched people scream past each other in comment sections. So I spent the last months building Policon (policon.net), random video-call matching, except instead of pairing you with anyone, it deliberately pairs you with the person whose politics are furthest from yours. The twist is the judge. A lightweight LLM (Claude Haiku) listens to the debate as it happens and scores it live, with a momentum chart, live "logical fallacy popups" and a full match report at the end. - You see "moments" pop up in real time; great argument when you land a point, ad hominem when you get personal. Getting dinged mid-rant while your opponent watches is exactly as humbling as it sounds. - A momentum graph tracks who's "winning" over the course of the call. - Afterwards you get a match report, and your rating (Glicko, chess-style) goes up or down. There's a ladder with leagues, so you can grind political debate like it's ranked competitive. - Team debates work too, you can bring friends in, up to 7 people in a call. You change teams each round depending on which questions you agree/disagree on Tech, for those who care: WebRTC with a mediasoup SFU for the multi-party calls, and the judge runs on a small fast model (Claude Haiku) so scoring keeps up with live speech without costing a fortune. I keep two deployments- the real one on AWS and a fallback that runs on a Debian VM in my homelab, mostly to force myself to keep the stack portable. It's free, no monetization yet. I'm an engineering mathematics student building this solo, and my honest problem right now is the matchmaking cold start: the product is only fun when someone's online to disagree with you. So if you show up and the queue is quiet, that's why. I'm mostly hoping for feedback on the concept and the judging, and for a few people to have a genuinely fun argument with a stranger. Would be amazing if any of you guys try this out with a friend, and send me the match report / give feedback! It's live on Policon.net :)) Roast me (haiku will tell you if it was ad hominem).
