Peer-to-Peer Connection Platform

Status: Concept

The Problem

Most online communication flows through corporate servers. Facebook owns your social graph. Twitter controls your followers. Discord monitors your communities. These companies sit in the middle of every connection, monetizing your relationships.

Our Vision

What if you could connect directly with people? No middleman reading your messages, analyzing your conversations, or deciding who you can talk to.

Key Features

  • Direct peer-to-peer connections
  • End-to-end encryption by default
  • No central authority
  • User-controlled discovery
  • Portable social connections
  • Offline-first design

Technical Approach

Building on proven P2P technologies:

  • Distributed hash tables for discovery
  • WebRTC for direct connections
  • Cryptographic identity verification
  • Local-first data storage
  • Mesh networking capabilities

Use Cases

  • Private messaging without corporate surveillance
  • Communities owned by members, not platforms
  • File sharing directly between people
  • Collaborative workspaces
  • Decentralized social networking

Challenges We’re Solving

  • NAT traversal and connection reliability
  • User experience without centralized servers
  • Content moderation in distributed systems
  • Spam and abuse prevention
  • Network discovery and bootstrapping
