Ratspeak

A New Network. New Privacy.·ratspeak.org

Ratspeak is a decentralized mesh communication network with privacy built into its core, built on the Reticulum protocol for resilient messaging across any transport. It requires no account, email, or phone number — identity is a self-generated cryptographic key recoverable via a 12-word phrase. Messages, packets, and routing are encrypted at every layer, and the network has no servers, database, or single point of control. It runs across desktop, mobile, and embedded/MCU hardware, all sharing the same open-source protocol.

What it's for

Sending private encrypted messagesSending files over the meshPlaying games over the networkCommunicating across transports like WiFi, LoRa, 5G, and BluetoothBuilding resilient off-grid communication with handheld LoRa devices
