Locked before leaving
Encryption happens on your device. The service coordinates keys and connections, not message content.
Browser-first private messaging
Your messages
never live here.
Smoeke connects people without becoming their inbox. Messages are encrypted in your browser, move peer-to-peer, and are never accepted or stored by Smoeke servers.
Moved by peers
Online devices exchange ciphertext directly, with a TURN relay available when networks get in the way.
Held by the mesh
When someone is offline, temporary encrypted copies can live with randomly selected browsers for up to 30 days.
A precise promise
Private, not invisible.
Smoeke keeps the social and delivery metadata needed to operate the network. Peer custody is best effort, and browsers can go offline or discard storage. Messages default to 30 days, and you can choose any lifetime through 365 days. What our servers do not keep—ever—is your message payload.
