About Chert
Chert is an AI coding agent that lets developers add AI video agents to FaceTime-style calls in a few lines of code.
Positioned as a "Vapi for FaceTime," it narrows in on minimal-code video agents — the main differentiator from broader agent frameworks that require heavier setup.
It fits developers building conversational video experiences who want browser-based delivery without standing up a backend stack. Browser access from any modern browser keeps initial setup minimal.
Within the AI coding agent category, Chert sits in a specialized niche focused on real-time video interactions rather than text-based agent workflows.

Here are eight worth installing.
