About

A browser-based voice and chat application that serves as a lightweight, privacy-focused alternative to community chat platforms. It utilizes LiveKit and WebRTC for low-latency voice and video rooms, supporting text channels, roles, moderation, and end-to-end encrypted direct messages. The platform runs entirely in the browser as a PWA, requires no installation, and offers a self-hosting option for users who want to keep their data on their own infrastructure. The core application is free, with paid tiers available for additional server capacity and customization.
