What to expect from an ideal product

1. OffCode TorChat lets you run a private chat server over Tor without touching a terminal or hiring anyone to set it up.
2. Your server gets its own .onion address, keeping conversations off the public internet and away from third-party platforms.
3. No reverse proxy, no open ports, no SSL certificates to renew. Tor handles the networking layer so you skip the usual sysadmin headaches.
4. Teams that need end-to-end private messaging but lack DevOps staff can go from zero to a live hidden service in minutes.
5. Because the server runs as a Tor Hidden Service, your IP stays hidden from users and your users stay hidden from the outside world.
