Debate someone who disagrees with you.
Meet someone on video, agree on a question, and take opposite sides. An AI judge reviews the arguments and explains the result.
Google, Apple, or email sign-in for live rounds. Camera on for every debater. Under 18 needs a parent, guardian, or coach.
How the match is made
Say how to match you
One take you would defend, the topics you want, and a matching rule. Or press Skip and meet someone now.
Get paired
Viewpoint clash pairs you with another person who also asked to be challenged.
Strike motions
Five motions land. Each side secretly strikes two. A coin flip splits the motion call from the side call.
Argue
A simple clock runs the round. Both of you are on camera.
Read the decision
Who won, why, both sides scored out of 100, and a rated record that moves.
How the round is judged
Explain your reasoning.
The judge considers your claims, reasons, and responses to the other side. The scoring rules are published before the round.
Agree on a question.
Choose a question together before starting. You can suggest your own or use the topic picker.
Take timed turns.
Timed turns give each person time to speak. When you finish the round, the AI judge writes its decision.
It goes on your record.
Rated results affect your leaderboard rating. A win against a higher-rated opponent changes it more.
What we will not run
Disagreement is the point. Being blindsided is not. Abortion and reproductive policy, sexual or domestic violence, suicide and self-harm, child abuse, graphic violence, capital punishment, and genocide are off the motion bank everywhere on the site, including custom motions. There is plenty left to fight about: immigration, billionaires, moderation, meritocracy, climate, policing, school, work, money, culture.
Safety in a round with a stranger
Everyone is on camera.
Every debater is on camera, so the other person is as visible as you are. You can leave, report, or block at any time.
Report and block are one tap.
Blocking someone prevents future matches between your accounts. How we keep rounds safe.
Questions people ask
How do I find someone who disagrees with me to debate?
Open the live queue, pick Viewpoint clash when it asks how you want to be matched, and you are paired with another person who also asked to be challenged. The motion draft then puts you on opposite sides of a question you both accepted.
What if I do not want to answer questions first?
Press Skip. You get the first available person and a motion from the draft. The questions make the match sharper; they never gate it.
Does the judge take a side?
No. It scores how well each side argued against a published rubric. The rubric, the model panel, and the human appeal path are at /judge-integrity.
Do I have to show my face?
Yes. Every live round is on camera, for both debaters. You can leave, report, or block at any time.
Are there topics you will not run?
Yes. Abortion, sexual or domestic violence, suicide and self-harm, child abuse, graphic violence, capital punishment, and genocide are off the bank everywhere.
Is it free?
Live video rounds are free after a Google or phone sign-in. The AI opponent gives you a free round without an account. Paid plans start at $10 a year. Pricing.
How is this different from Policon?
Policon matches on a 24-statement political survey and runs voice only. Debatable matches on a shorter profile, runs on video with an optional avatar, drafts the motion before the round, and adds a rated record, replays, and cash tournaments. Full comparison at /vs/policon.
