Keet

Keet is a peer-to-peer chat and video app that puts privacy and ownership back in the hands of users. Built on the Holepunch protocol, Keet enables fully encrypted messaging, video calls and file sharing, without any servers or centralized infrastructure. Conversations stay private, data stays local, and users stay in control.

Objective

Designing for private, peer-to-peer communication without compromise.

We designed a secure, decentralized communication experience that feels as intuitive and polished as mainstream apps, while operating entirely without servers. This means designing a user interface that builds trust and clarity around peer-to-peer connections, encryption status and real-time interactions, all while hiding the underlying complexity of the Holepunch protocol. Our goal was to make privacy feel seamless, not technical, ensuring that users feel confident using Keet as their daily communication tool without needing to understand how it works behind the scenes.

Process

We created a new design system to provide consistency, clarity and a unified visual language.

The Lorius Design System leverages design tokens to establish color usage for light and dark mode in addition to typography, spacing, semantic structure and design documentation. I worked closely with front end engineers to implement and test components focused on elegant interactions, quality and performance.
