Given today’s challenge of keeping one’s privacy private, Wispr is the present and future of secured communication. Each high-fidelity message, audio/video call or file transfer is fully private with no one, not even us, being able to interfere. FULLY PROTECTED : State-of-the-art technology ensures secured messages and file transfers to and from anyone at any time. You don’t have to worry about needing special features as having all things private and secured is normality for Wispr. BY NEW ENCRYPTION TECHNOLOGY: Having each and every element on the app (messages, audio and video calls, file transfers) encrypted is brought to you by VOBP (Voice Over Blockchain Protocol), which makes your communication bullet proof. FOR FREE : Privacy should not be perceived as a preference, but as a given and so Wispr should not be a choice, but a normality. WITH NO FURTHER EFFORT : Wispr is available for everyone through the simple use of their phone number and address book or through using Matrix ID that is one can directly access owners of Impulse K1, a phone taking encryption to a whole new level. However, Wispr’s future has much to hold in terms of taking privacy to a whole new level. YET BEST QUALITY : Slow networks are not a show stopper for Wispr, which is optimized to perform equally successful in all kinds of environments all over the world. Top that with a user friendly, very intuitive design and low latency and you get your choice of privacy providing app.
HushHush.

Instead of a new messaging app, HushHush is a secure layer for the ones you already have. It combines the absolute privacy of local encryption with the freedom to keep using the platforms you already love. HOW IT WORKS: • Type a message → HushHush encrypts it • Paste the encrypted text into any messaging app • Your contact copies it back into HushHush to read it. KEY FEATURES: ZERO-KNOWLEDGE ARCHITECTURE: • HushHush uses a zero-knowledge architecture to ensure that privacy is baked into the code, making it technically impossible for us to collect your data. MINIMUM 4 LAYERS OF ENCRYPTION: • Messages protected by at least 4 layers of stacked and shuffled encryption, with the option to customise and add as many encryption layers as you would like. QUANTUM-RESISTANCE: • Optional quantum-resistant ML-KEM encryption available, with a two-step in-person QR-code key exchange for extra security. LOCAL AND ON-DEVICE: • Encryption keys never leave the device. QR-CODE EXCHANGES: • Key exchanges are done In-person via QR-code scanning to prevent encryption interception. DUAL-PROTECTION: • Messages are dual-protected by your password and a hardware-backed key stored in each device’s secure enclave. Neither factor alone can unlock your data. DURESS MODE: • An optional duress mode is set up via a secondary password that, when used, replaces/ replaces and wipes all data with convincing decoy contacts and conversations.
