Private.Ki

Private.Ki is a privacy-focused communications brand offering end-to-end encrypted email, messaging, and group chat. Its central promise is that messages are encrypted on users’ devices and private keys never leave those devices, so the company says it cannot read or recover message contents. Email between Private.Ki users is encrypted, while messages to external providers are encrypted when recipients have a key and clearly flagged when they do not. The email service also displays message-level encryption and signature-verification indicators.

Private.Ki’s messenger includes encrypted reactions, voice notes, attachments, stickers, delivery indicators, and options to unsend or destroy messages. Users can set self-destruct timers for conversations, with durations ranging from 30 seconds to a month. Group chats encrypt messages for each member’s individual key. The service can be used in a modern web browser, with iOS and Android listed as supported platforms. Private.Ki also offers business options for teams, including use within an organisation and dedicated servers. The company provides security information, account guidance, a help centre, and pricing details for prospective users.
