RitChat

A tiny, simple end-to-end encrypted chat for short private conversations. No accounts. No registration. No cookies.

To start a secure chat, you only need to:

  1. Open this page.
  2. Enter a shared passphrase.
  3. Start chatting.
  • ๐Ÿ” Messages are encrypted in your browser (E2EE).
  • ๐Ÿง  The passphrase never leaves your tabโ€™s memory.
  • ๐Ÿงน Close the tab โ€” access is gone instantly.
  • ๐Ÿช No cookies, no localStorage, no persistent identifiers.
  • ๐Ÿ‘ฅ Group chats are supported (anyone with the passphrase can join).

RitChat is designed for quick, confidential exchanges when you donโ€™t want to create accounts or leave traces on devices.

The frontend encryption code is open for inspection โ€” anyone can verify how messages are protected.

Privacy note: RitChat does not store passphrases, chat IDs or encryption keys in cookies, localStorage, sessionStorage or IndexedDB. Access exists only while this browser tab is open.

Chats inactive for more than 7 days are automatically deleted from the server.
