- Sometimes, there will be some people in your office that you don't ever really want to talk to. In a real corridor you would just walk past eachother, but with this you'd have to either grin and bear it, or be very up front about your dislike of each other.

Hi!
I'd be interested to hear your thoughts on the pricing - I'm aiming for a low barrier to entry and high volume, hence doing it s a relatively low price per user, and on an annual basis, but would love to know your thoughts.
The aim of the product is to have a very low barrier to talking to people for relatively short conversations, potentially amongst the broader company, rather than longer 1:1s with people in the smaller team like Donut is probably more optimised for (due to the higher barrier to actually start talking). CorridorChat lets people start chatting over video instantly, vs putting them in touch to schedule something in, so you might have 10 chats of 5-6 minutes each in an hour. Obviously, to an extent people could use a similar approach with a system like Donut combined with starting a video call with each person, but it is still higher barrier that doesn't quite recreate the experience of meeting people in a social setting at work.

We use Donut in our Slack and works pretty nice, how does this service compares with it? Why do you need to provide your own video-call service?
