How much would you charge per hour to speak to a random stranger in English?

Perhaps you should change the title. This looks more like a promotion of your site than a question. It is fine to post your stuff here, but if it looks like you are trying to disguise it, someone will complain.

How much do you get from the call?

There is no landing page. If I go to your site, it is only a signup form. No way I'm creating an account without at least a few nice graphics.

Can I select between British English and American English?

Can I filter by topics? Can I select someone to talk about movies, or about books, or about cooking? (Is this a common feature in other sites?)

How do you prevent abuse from the users? How do you prevent that this is trnasformed into a webcam porn site?

Hi, thanks for all your comments.

All the things you mentioned totally make sense. I do have a landing page. This is to quickly see the other people's thoughts and validate the idea.

Eventually it would be topic based and/or algorithm driven. But for now, it would be manual, it just takes time and effort to build everything. I am doing this for free and for fun.

I have not thought about the abuse issue, looks like a pretty big and valid concern.

I found that if I remove app from the link you posted, I go to the landing page. Perhaps you should add some decoration to the signin page, and a link to the main page.
