How safety works here

Anonymous chat sites usually mean anonymous operators too. Strangerhood is run by a named UK company with published policies — here is plainly, specifically, what protects you. (Last reviewed: 20 August 2026.)

Free · Moderated · Age-verified · 18+

Age verification that isn't a checkbox

This is an 18+ service, enforced to the standard each region requires. In the UK that means a facial age estimation (via go.cam) before your first chat — processed on your own device, never uploaded, never stored. In the EEA, estimation-grade checks apply. Elsewhere, entry is by declaration, with the same moderation and reporting protecting every conversation.

Moderation while it happens, in seven languages

Every message is screened as it's sent by models running on our own servers — in English, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Turkish and Russian. The policy is deliberate: banter, swearing and blunt opinions flow; hate and racism are blocked. We don't claim to catch everything — no honest service does — which is why reporting matters just as much.

Reports go to a human, and bans stick

Report a conversation and a person reviews it — the full reported exchange, not a summary. Because everyone is accountable to the service (even though you're anonymous to each other), consequences survive a page refresh: trust penalties, account bans, device bans. Blocking someone is instant, mutual and permanent, and works even after they've left.

What we don't do

No ads. No selling or sharing of your data. No message content sent to third-party AI services — moderation and translation run on our own machines. Unkept conversations aren't stored; kept ones are yours to delete. The full detail is in our privacy policy and terms — written to be read, and kept in step with what the code actually does. Strangerhood is operated by Grainger Labs Ltd, registered in the UK.

Frequently asked questions

Is Strangerhood really moderated?

Yes — every message is screened live by models on our own servers in seven languages, hate is blocked automatically, and human review backs the reporting system. We publish the policy rather than hand-waving about 'AI safety'.

How does the age check work?

In the UK, a quick facial age estimation runs on your own device before your first chat — no photo is uploaded or stored, and we only ever learn the yes/no result. Other regions use the standard their law requires.

What happens when I report someone?

A human reviews the reported conversation. Reports carry real consequences — trust penalties, bans, device bans — and repeat reporters of bad actors are how the worst people get found fastest.

Who runs Strangerhood?

Grainger Labs Ltd, a UK-registered company. The policies, the moderation approach and the company behind them are published — the opposite of the anonymous-operator norm in this category.
