You might ask, why another private messenger? There are a lot of them out there already - Telegram, Matrix, WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, Signal, Viber, and so on, all give you various promises of message privacy.

The app is open-source and is being developed by a non-profit group called the Holochain Institute of Japan.
Kizuna empowers people to message each other completely privately, without the involvement of a central server.
