Product Information
What is Databag?
Databag is a self-hosted messaging service. Notable features include:

Public-private key-based identity (not tied to any blockchain or hosted domain)
End-to-end encryption (host administrators cannot view sealed topics)
Audio and video calls (NAT traversal requires a separate relay server)
Topic-based threading (messages organized by topic rather than contacts)
Lightweight (server runs on a Raspberry Pi Zero v1.3)
Low latency (uses WebSocket for push events to avoid polling)
Unlimited accounts per node (host for your entire household)
Mobile alerts (push notifications for new contacts, messages, and calls)
