Velix ID
Every account receives a unique Velix ID so conversations don't depend on sharing phone numbers or personal details.
Velixnet private messaging
Encrypted messaging with the keys kept on your device.
Velixnet is a private messaging app designed for direct conversations between two people. Message content is encrypted on your device before upload, while the service routes protected data rather than conversation plaintext.
How E2EE works here
Message content is encrypted before it reaches the delivery service.
Before a message leaves your device, the client encrypts its content using private key material that is designed to remain under device control and is not sent to the delivery service. The service stores and forwards protected envelopes rather than conversation plaintext.
This keeps the delivery role narrow: the server helps messages move, but it is not meant to become part of the conversation. A private messenger should not need to understand what people are saying in order to deliver it.
Encryption is not the whole privacy story. Velixnet also treats metadata, recovery, identity checks and retention as separate trust problems that need clear handling.
- EncryptYour device protects the message before it leaves.
- SendThe server delivers encrypted data, not readable text.
- DecryptThe recipient's device opens the message locally.
- MetadataSome account, routing, timing and connection information remains visible to the service.
Velixnet is designed for private conversations rather than public engagement. There are no feeds, follower counts or recommendation algorithms competing for your attention, just a direct connection between two people.
Small choices
Trust is built through small decisions.
Privacy isn't created by a single feature. It's the result of many design decisions working together, from how identities are verified to where encryption happens.
Built on established cryptography
Velixnet relies on widely used cryptographic libraries rather than creating its own encryption. Established building blocks are easier to review, understand and maintain.
QR verifies identity
Scan a QR code when meeting someone in person to confirm you're communicating with the intended device.
No attention economy
No feeds. No engagement algorithms. No endless scrolling. Velixnet focuses on conversation rather than capturing attention.
Honest privacy
Privacy is a boundary, not a spell.
Privacy has practical limits, and those limits should be explained honestly. Messages are encrypted before upload, while the server is responsible only for routing and delivery. Some network information is still required for communication, and the technical notes explain what remains visible.
- Messages encrypted before upload
- Private keys are not sent to the delivery service
- Identity verification available
- Limited server role, with metadata limits documented
- Clear documentation of system limits
Why it matters
Because strong encryption should still feel human.
Security should make communication simpler, not more intimidating. Velixnet is designed to stay approachable for everyday users while providing technical detail for developers and reviewers.
Everyday conversations
Built for people who simply want private one-to-one communication.
Technical transparency
Technical notes are available for anyone who wants to understand how the system works.
Growing carefully
Velixnet is being developed in measured stages, with documented limits and verification guiding each step.
Quick view
Quick facts.
Status reviewed: 26 August 2026.
| End-to-end encryption | Yes. Message content is encrypted on the device before server delivery. |
|---|---|
| Identity verification | QR verification helps users compare contact keys directly instead of relying only on the server. |
| Phone number required | No. Velixnet is designed around a Velix ID. |
| Email sign-up required | No. The current design does not require an email address for account creation. |
| Metadata collection | Limited by design, not zero. Some network information is still needed for delivery. |
| Privacy shield | A quiet screen mode for active threads when the conversation needs to fade from view. |
| Independent security audit | Independent security review is planned before wider release. |
| Best for | Private direct communication without phone-number identity. |
