polyproto is an open protocol that lets you use one account across many independent apps and services. No company owns your identity: cryptography proves it's you, and you can move to another home server whenever you like, taking your data with you.

तो क्या हे polyproto?

polyproto एक computer protocols का परिवार हे, जो आपको online पहचान देता हे, जैसे "login with..." आपको अनेक websites और applications में देता हे, polyproto ऐसे ही काम करता हे परन्तु ये आपको पुरे internet में ऐसा करना देता हे, इसके साथ-साथ ये आपके सन्देशो को open और decentralised internet से लेकर जाता हे, आपके देता पे सिर्फ आपका ही हक हे।

आपका अकाउंट आपके मर्ज़ी के home server पर रहता हे, वहा से आप किसी भी और polyproto application और service पे भेज सकते हे, आपके हर भेजी हुई मैसेज पर आपका एक cryptographic signature लगाया जाता हे, ताकि server और बाकि प्रयोक्ता आपके मैसेज की जांच कर सके. आप कभी भी अपना home server बदल सकते हे और अपना पुराण डाटा अपने साथ ही लेजा सकते हे।

How it works

As easy as counting to four!

  1. 1

    Get an identity

    Pick a home server or have polyproto make that choice for you. What you get is a Federation ID like conway@polyproto.org. That's your name across the whole network; until you feel like changing it.

  2. 2

    Your server vouches for you

    Your home server gives your account a verifiable "stamp of approval". Other apps can check it to confirm it's really you. You never hand away your keys.

  3. 3

    Send signed data

    Everything you post or message is signed by you. Anyone can verify it's authentic and was not tampered with.

  4. 4

    Move freeeeeely

    Don't like your home server? Migrate to another and keep your identity and data, even if the old home server is already long offline or actively uncooperative.

सबसे अच्छा संगठन अदृश्य होता हे.

polyproto उपयोग करने में आसान हे और बनाने में भी, यह बस काम करता हे और आपको भी अपना काम करने देता हे, यह आपके काम के बीच टांग नहीं आद्राता हे. polyproto सबके लिये बना हे।

What you get

Exactly what’s inside and why we think you'll like it

An identity you own

Your Federation ID is yours, not rented from a platform. No company can lock you in, sell you out, or take it away.

Switch home servers anytime

Move your account to a new home server whenever you want, even if the old one has shut down. Your data comes with you.

Tamper-proof by design

Signatures let anyone verify that what they see really came from you and was not altered along the way, using battle-tested cryptography like X.509 and digital signatures.

Federation, like email

Independent servers all speak the same language, so you can reach individuals and services no matter whose server they live on.

Reusable extensibility

Extensions are major technological add-ons (such as general purpose end-to-end encryption) or app-cores standardising a whole category such as chat. App-cores reuse the same interoperable parts instead of rebuilding them.

Sustainably empowering, empoweringly sustainable

polyproto is unapologetically queer and built by an inclusive and diverse community. It is headed for open, democratic governance with no single owner, made by and for individuals big tech tends to overlook.

Where it fits

polyproto can power almost anything that needs accounts. Its identity layer sits underneath, and app-cores standardise whole categories on top. We think polyproto would be a great fit for:

  • Instant messaging
  • Social networks
  • Forums
  • Collaborative tools
  • Game backends
  • ...anything that needs an account
