MessagingWithout Middlemen
Messages travel directly between devices through Bluetooth, the internet, and anonymous networks. No servers. No accounts. No data collection.
Six Paths. Your Message Always Gets Through.
If one path is blocked, your message finds another way through. From offline Bluetooth to anonymous Tor routing to always-on relay servers, Ekko Chat tries every available path automatically.
Bluetooth
Direct device-to-device messaging within 30 feet. No internet needed.
DHT Network
Messages stored on a global peer-to-peer network. No central server.
Tor Onion
Anonymous connections through 3 encrypted hops. IP addresses hidden.
QUIC P2P
NAT-busting peer-to-peer connections. Punches through firewalls.
Private Relay
Always-on push delivery through your encrypted relay server. Messages queue while you're offline.
Mesh Gossip
Devices relay encrypted messages for others. Extends reach everywhere.
Privacy by Design
Not privacy by policy. Every architectural decision puts your security first.
No Accounts
Your identity is a cryptographic key generated on your device. No sign-up, no email, no phone number.
End-to-End Encrypted
Every message encrypted with ChaCha20-Poly1305. Per-message forward secrecy with ephemeral ECDH.
Works Offline
Bluetooth messaging works with no internet. Meet in person, exchange messages directly.
Metadata Protected
No server knows who you talk to, when, or how often. Your social graph stays private.
