Waitlist

What we're building

A forward-looking view instead of a changelog, because nothing has shipped to the public yet. Things will move between Now / Next / Later as scope sharpens.

More on this: the four principles, in the product →

Now: Building the foundation.

  • Core messaging engine

    Realtime delivery, encrypted at rest, India-resident infrastructure stood up across availability zones.

  • Cross-device rehydration

    Sign in on any new device and your full history is there. The promise that drives the whole product.

  • Search across years

    Full-text indexing of messages, file names, and attachments, built for queries against years, not weeks.

  • Waitlist + early-access program

    You're looking at it. The list shapes who gets invited first when the gates open.

Next: Closer to launch.

  • iOS, Android, and web apps

    Mobile native first; the web client lives at app.chatvia.in. Desktop apps follow.

  • File sharing and media handling

    Photos, videos, voice notes, and documents as first-class: same encryption, same search index, same retention as messages.

  • Group conversations and communities

    Long-lived group chats designed to stay coherent past month one. Owner controls, no per-member pricing.

  • Private business pilots

    A small set of freelancers, agencies, and small operating teams running ChatVia in production ahead of public launch.

Later: Building on the foundation.

  • Admin controls and retention policies

    For business accounts: per-conversation retention, legal-hold flags, export tooling, audit logs.

  • Open API + third-party integrations

    A documented API so the conversations you have in ChatVia can flow into the rest of the tools you use.

  • Voice and video calling

    India-resident, encrypted, fast. Same posture as the rest of the product.

  • Public security audit

    A third-party cryptographic and infrastructure audit, with the report published in full on this site.

Want a say in what moves up? Tell us in the "why early access" field when you join.

The future of communication ownership.

Conversations are how we live and how we work. They should be secure, searchable, permanent, and yours, without backups, without migrations, without loss. Communication belongs to the people who create it.
