How a room works
Five steps, from link to nothing.
- 1
The room is created
You pick a name and how long it should exist. No account needed.
- 2
The link is generated
Everything after the # stays in the browser. The key never reaches our server.
hushroom.io/r/quiet-oak-4821#key=a3f9c1b7…
- 3
The link is shared
The other party clicks and is in. No app, no sign-up.
- 4
You talk
Chat, voice and video. Encrypted in your browser, not on our side.
- 5
The room disappears
When the timer runs out everything is deleted. There is nothing left to request.
Example
- End-to-end encryptedTweetNaCl for text, LiveKit for voice and video
- Run from SwedenBy Benbo.se, with no US cloud in the data path
- Open sourceThe whole service is public under AGPL-3.0
- Works wherever you areTested between Stockholm and Riyadh, 5G against hotel WiFi
You do not have to take our word for it.
The whole service is public on GitHub, including the encryption and the tests that prove it works. Read the code, run it yourself, or host your own instance. A service with something to hide cannot do this.

We see the display name and the time. The content itself is encrypted in your browser and stored as [encrypted]. The key lives only in the link fragment, which per the HTTP specification is never sent to a server. Once the Redis key expires there is nothing left to hand over.
Three conversations that require confidentiality
Three conversations that don't belong in your Teams
What they have in common: the person is outside your organisation, and the conversation should neither be archived nor pass through a US cloud.
The whistleblower who wants to stay anonymous
Reporting channels, unions, ombudsmen. Send a link. No account, no trace.
The client or patient outside your M365
Legal, healthcare, social services. Talk on video without inviting outsiders into Teams.
The source who was promised protection
Journalism, audit. The room expires on its own, so nothing is left afterwards.
Why not just Teams?
For internal work, Teams is excellent. For the external, confidential conversation it is the wrong tool.
| Hushroom | Teams | Zoom | Signal | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Account required | No | Yes, for you (guests via web link) | Yes, for the host | Phone number + app |
| Conversation archived | No, deleted when the room closes | Yes (M365 archive, e-discovery) | Recording and logs optional | On the device |
| US cloud | No, Sweden | Yes | Yes | Yes (US servers) |
| Invite an outsider without an account | Yes, one link | Partly (web guest) | Yes | No (app required) |
Hushroom does not replace Teams. It is the room next door, for the conversation that should not persist.
