The idea was to simulate a Google Meet - the site is essentially one long 'call' with Mauhan; users are asked to share permission to their own webcam, and are given a pre-recording of Mauhan in his living room in return.
"We wanted to make people feel like Mauhan was constantly, directly, and somehow intimately available to them, even if he actually wasn't," says Francesca Oddenino, co-founder of Vicine.
Users can fire off custom emojis, open up a chat bar, or hang-up the call and - except for the fact we're essentially just watching a video of Mauhan in his living room - the site does elicit the same feelings you get on a video call.
Francesca thinks that's part of the reason the website received the reaction it did.
