Private messaging
built by us, for us.

HolyChat is a closed, self-hosted messaging platform. No surveillance, no ads, no third parties. Just encrypted conversations between trusted people.

What we built

Security without compromise.

Every decision in HolyChat was made to protect the people using it — not to monetise them.

🔑

End-to-end encrypted

Messages are encrypted with Olm and Megolm on your device. Nobody — not even us — can read them.

🏠

Fully self-hosted

Everything runs on our own hardware. No cloud provider. No data leaving the server without our control.

🔗

Invite chain system

You only get in if someone already inside vouches for you. Every user is traceable back to a trusted root.

📸

Photos with expiry

Media is stored temporarily — after 30 days it's gone. Less data stored means less data at risk.

🚫

No federation

Our server doesn't communicate with any other Matrix servers. It's a closed network, by design.

📵

No tracking

No analytics. No telemetry. No third-party SDKs phoning home. We built this for us, not for advertisers.

Getting in

How access works.

HolyChat doesn't have a public sign-up. Here's how you get an account.

1

Get invited

Someone already on HolyChat sends you an invite link. No link, no access — it's that simple.

2

Admin approval

Your invite is reviewed by an admin. Once approved, your account is activated.

3

Install the app

Download the HolyChat Flutter client on Android or iOS. Log in and you're in.

4

Start messaging

All messages are encrypted on your device before they ever touch the server.
