Building EchoId — a privacy-focused messaging app

Hi everyone

I m currently building EchoId, a privacy-focused messaging project designed around secure real-time communication and minimal data collection.

I was frustrated by how heavily many modern apps are monetized, especially platforms like Instagram and Facebook.

This project is not meant to become a brand or business. The goal is simply to allow messages to be delivered without tracking, profiling, or analysis.

EchoId - Encrypted messaging with minimal identity tracking

EchoId is a privacy-focused messaging app designed for secure real-time communication. It uses WebSockets for instant messaging and a hybrid encryption model (RSA + AES) to protect message content. The project explores lightweight chat architecture with minimal data collection while maintaining strong security. Built as a side project to experiment with privacy-first communication systems.
