Mesh

[ In active development, no release yet ]

A private place to talk, owned by no one.

Mesh is a private, end-to-end encrypted, decentralized chat app for communities and friends. It runs on open, Matrix-compatible infrastructure, without ever asking you to understand what that means.

[ What Mesh is building ]

Private by construction, not by promise.

End-to-end encrypted

Every message and file is encrypted before it leaves your device. Nobody in between, not even the server operator, can read a conversation.

No forced lock-in

Sign in with Matrix.org's public service, a community-hosted homeserver, or your own. Your account is never trapped behind one company's servers.

Communities that federate

A community and the people in it can live on entirely different services and still talk, the way email already works across providers.

Peer storage you can see and stop

An optional, peer-assisted storage layer helps keep history available across devices. It is explicit, bounded, observable, and reversible, never a silent drain on disk or battery.

[ How it works ]

From install to inside, in four steps.

  1. Install Mesh

    Get the app for your desktop or your phone.

  2. Open an invite

    Tap a community's invitation link. No account needed yet.

  3. Sign in or create an account

    Choose Matrix.org's public service, a community-hosted service, or your own. A real choice, never forced.

  4. Enter the community

    You're in. Matrix, homeservers, and federation stay invisible the whole time.
