Get in

ChatPVT is currently invite-only.
How it works
Encryption you control,
room by room.
ChatPVT runs on Matrix , so each room sets its own encryption and access — you decide who can read, who can join, and where the room lives.
Private
Privacy you set, room by room. Direct messages are end-to-end encrypted by default. Group rooms can be locked tight for sensitive work, left open for discovery, or shared with trusted guests.
Open
Built on Matrix - a public standard, not a private platform. Your conversations are not locked inside one company, and your account is yours to move.
European
Designed with ♥ in East London, hosted in the EU. Your data lives in European data centres, under a privacy model your team can explain in plain English.
How it compares
They may not read the message. They still sell your pattern to advertisers.
Some apps encrypt your messages, but they still collect surrounding signals: who you are, who you talk to, what you follow, what device you use, where you connect from, and how you behave across the platform.
ChatPVT is built differently: no advertising incentive, no Big Tech owner, EU-hosted infrastructure, and an open federated protocol that no single company controls.
