PuchiDen
International calls from your browser. No app, no account.
Skype is gone, and every replacement wants an app install, an account, and tracking just to make one phone call. PuchiDen is the opposite: a public phone for the internet. Open your browser, dial, talk. Reach any real number in 180+ countries (banks, clients, government offices), up to 95% cheaper than carrier rates. No app, no account, no tracking. You pay only for calls that connect. For a limited time: €1 free credit on signup.
I have spent twenty years on the unglamorous parts of telephony. I founded Xoxzo in 2007 and ran it for fourteen years doing SMS, SIP and WebRTC, bridging the internet to the public phone network. So when Microsoft retired Skype last year and I went looking for a replacement, I was annoyed to find that even I, someone who does this for a living, now found international calling a pain.
Every option wanted the same things. Install an app. Make an account. Hand over a phone number to verify. Accept the tracking pixel. Installing an app to make one phone call is, when you stop and think about it, ridiculous.
So I built PuchiDen. The name is Japanese: puchi (プチ, small) plus den (電, the first character of 電話, phone). A small, simple phone.
It works like a 1995 payphone. Open the browser, dial, talk. No app, no account, no password, no Google Analytics, no Meta Pixel. It reaches any real phone number in 180+ countries (banks, clinics, hotels, government offices), not just other people who installed the same app. You pay only for calls that connect, and unanswered calls are free.

Hi, I'm Iqbal, the maker behind PuchiDen.
I have spent twenty years on the unglamorous parts of telephony. I founded Xoxzo in 2007 and ran it for fourteen years doing SMS, SIP and WebRTC, bridging the internet to the public phone network. So when Microsoft retired Skype last year and I went looking for a replacement, I was annoyed to find that even I, someone who does this for a living, now found international calling a pain.

One other thing I wanted as an e-Resident and an Estonian company owner was an Estonian number which I can receive and make calls with. Skype had that, but took it away when the left. I built in PuchiDen incoming calls via virtual numbers too. If you're an e-Resident like me and need an Estonian number to receive and make calls for your business, then PuchiDen is for you.
