## Keet: P2P Chat & Video Calls
**Website:** [keet.io](https://keet.io)
### What It Is
Keet is a video conferencing app - like Zoom or Google Meet - but P2P!
Keet is the flagship P2P messaging and video conferencing app from Holepunch. It's like WhatsApp, Zoom, and Signal combined - but completely serverless and P2P!
### How It Works
```
Traditional Zoom:
You → Zoom Server → Friend's video
Traditional WhatsApp/Signal:
You → Server → Friend's phone
Keet:
You ↔ Friend (direct video connection!)
You ↔ Friend (direct connection - no server!)
```
### Features
| Feature | How It's Built |
|---------|---------------|
| **Video calls** | WebRTC over P2P |
| **Chat messages** | Hypercore |
| **File sharing** | Hyperdrive |
| **Text chat** | Hypercore - encrypted, synced P2P |
| **Video/Audio calls** | WebRTC over P2P connections |
| **File sharing** | Hyperdrive - any size, direct device-to-device |
| **No sign-up** | 24-word seed phrase = your identity |
| **Rooms** | Group chat + Broadcast Rooms (read-only) |
| **Cross-platform** | Desktop + Mobile, syncs via QR |
| **Encryption** | End-to-end (only participants can see) |
| **No account needed** | Your key = your identity |
### Why It Matters
- ✅ No Zoom/Google watching your calls
- ✅ Works when internet is slow (direct connection)
- ✅ Can't be shut down (no central server)
- ✅ Free forever
- ✅ No phone number or email required
- ✅ No servers - your data never touches the cloud
- ✅ No metadata collection - truly private
- ✅ Unlimited file sizes - direct device-to-device
- ✅ Can't be shut down - no central point of failure
- ✅ 100% free - no ads, no subscriptions
- ✅ Built on Pear Runtime (open source)
