The apps create places where you can be you with no strings attached—no personal phone numbers or email addresses are required.
You are represented by an account ID and QR code. Connect with people in seconds simply by clicking a link or scanning a code.
No email or phone number is required to join. You can connect your email to help remember passwords, but it’s not required.
The apps don’t mine for user data. Rather, to learn from users, apps offer a privacy preserving way to learn from users what you need to.
Keanu is designed to ensure the safety of each individual. Dive into the details of our secure setup for the apps on our security documentation.
Keanu is built on the Matrix protocol, an open network for secure, decentralized communication. Matrix’s state-of-the-art end-to-end encryption offers security on the device and in transit.
The Keanu team has experience deploying on Amazon Web Services, which is ISO certified for Cloud Security and Data Protection. The team can also work in other environments offering a secure infrastructure.
Keanu is open source code under GNU Affero General Public License (AGPL v3.0). Regular security audits and updates ensure that security standards are upheld.
Holistic digital security considers users’ experience in their physical environment as well as their digital.
Swap out the app icon for something else. Camo gives users the power to disguise.
Easily wipe messages or all of the information from an app with one tap. Panic also gives users the power to make an app self destruct.
For an extra layer of physical device security, users can add a password to the app itself. Auto-lock ensures that the app is locked when it’s not being used.
Each experience is carefully crafted to consider users’ behaviors and the threats they may be vulnerable to.
Apps feature easy to join groups with workflows to ensure privacy. Learn more about privacy in semi-private groups.
Real identities aren’t linked. The apps deploy various methods for users to be confident that the people they are connected with are, in fact, whom they expect.
It’s always clear with whom you’re sharing with. Location shares happen only when the user asks. Apps don’t continue to access user location without permission.
The Keanu team aims to uphold the dignity of humankind. Learn more about the team at Guardian Project—People and code you can trust.
