Made in IndiaKashmir to Kanyakumari · Kutch to Kohima

Made in India. Made for every Indian.

The private messenger made in India. Only the people in a chat can read it, and your phone quietly stops the OTPs, card numbers and fake KYC links that scams depend on.

The idea

Most apps warn you after the scam arrives. We take away what it needs.

Every chat scam needs three things to work. Namaskara removes all three, right on your phone.

Privacy

What you say stays between you.

Your phone locks every message with keys that never leave it. Our servers only carry sealed envelopes. We couldn't read your chats if we tried.

  • Chats, groups, photos, files and call set-up, all encrypted
  • No read receipts, no ads, no trackers
  • No photo of your face, ever
How privacy works
The chat list, showing a contact's drawn avatar, a message request label and an unread dot
Protection

Your OTP never leaves your phone.

Fraudsters don't hack you, they talk you into it. If a message looks like an OTP, PIN, CVV, card or Aadhaar number, it simply doesn't go.

Every protection
A dialog reading Not sent, for your safety, because the message looked like an OTP
Apna Chehra

React with your own face.

Draw yourself once: dastaar or dupatta, bindi or beard, phulkari or kasavu. Then every reaction is you, saying namaste or "shabaash".

Speaks the way you speak.

The whole app switches language, scam warnings included. Type "namaste" in English letters and it becomes नमस्ते, right on your phone.

Sign-in

A stolen SIM opens nothing.

No SMS codes to intercept. A password and an optional authenticator app, with alerts for every new device.

How it works
What we believe

Three promises, built into the code.

01

Remove the risk, don't just warn.

Under pressure, people tap past warnings. A code that cannot be sent cannot be stolen.

02

Protect without reading.

Every check runs on your own phone. Safety never costs you your privacy.

03

Respect every Indian.

Your avatar can wear a dastaar, hijab or tilak. We never store your faith, and never rank one choice above another.
