Naven
Use case
A group chat for a one-off event
Channels do not currently expire on their own. Leaving it to go quiet, or leaving it, is the manual version.
Who this is for
Weddings, parties, reunions and trips — a group of people who need to coordinate once.
The problem
Setting up a permanent group chat for a weekend means those forty people have each other's numbers forever.
How Naven handles it
- A channel joined by a link that you simply stop sharing afterwards.
- No numbers exchanged for a group that exists for a fortnight.
- Guests with any device can join, including ones who will not install anything.
What it costs
Nothing. Naven is free, with no advertising, no paid tier and no data sale. There is no card, no trial and no phone number.
