What is Omoggle?

Omoggle is a website where users are randomly matched with others via live video for an appearance-rating game. When two users are matched, Omoggle scans both faces using artificial intelligence (AI) and gives each person a score – the person with the higher score is the winner.

Omoggle says it uses facial analysis software to compare things like facial symmetry and jaw definition. There have been reports that the AI is easily affected by random factors such as camera angles and lighting.

Some users also stream their Omoggle sessions on platforms like Twitch, Kick and TikTok, where other people can watch in real time.

After a round ends, users have the option to ‘rematch and chat’ with the same person, report them, or ‘find a new match’ and start a new round.

Platforms like Omoggle, Omegle.life and OmeTV are part of a growing number of imitation sites based on the original Omegle.

What is ‘mogging’ or being ‘mogged’?

‘Mogging’ is a slang term used on platforms like Omoggle to describe rating or comparing someone’s appearance against others. A person who is judged to have a higher score may be described as the ‘mogger’, while the other person may be described as ‘mogged’.
 
Users gain or lose points after each match, depending on whether they’ve won or lost. The winner is called the ‘mogger’. The loser is called the ‘mogged’. To ‘outperform’ someone else in looks, is to ‘mog’ them. Users are scored and can then be ranked. 
 
Omoggle uses an Elo-style ranking system, which is a points system often used in competitive games. Users can move through different ranks, ranging from bottom tiers like ‘molecule’ to medium tiers like ‘normie’, and higher ranks like ‘chad’ and ‘slayer’.
