How it works
Choose a temporary nickname, lifetime and participant limit. Room credentials are generated in your browser.
Send the secure link or the single access code through a channel you already trust.
Encrypted packets are relayed in real time. At the deadline the server closes the room and it cannot be reopened.
Security model
NOW-2-CHAT derives a room locator, an AES-256-GCM key and an access proof from the access code using HKDF-SHA-256. The original access code and message key remain in participating browsers.
