About Stovo
We believe communication software should empower privacy, foster real connections, and remain completely transparent.
Our Philosophy: Floating Islands of Calm
In an era of noisy notification badges, invasive data mining, and bloated chat applications, Stovo was built from the ground up as a peaceful, high-performance alternative.
Inspired by Telegram's sleek panel ergonomics and modern modular backend design, Stovo organizes your digital life into isolated, private “islands” of communication. Whether you are running a tight-knit family group, a fast-moving enterprise, or an active gaming squad, Stovo keeps your data under your complete control.
Modern Modular Monolith
Powered by a blazingly fast Go (Chi + Ent) backend, PostgreSQL for immutable data durability, Redis for sub-millisecond message brokering, and Socket.IO for real-time presence.
MinIO Private Object Storage
Your photos, videos, and uploaded files are stored safely using S3-compatible MinIO object storage with Argon2id password hashing and JWT rotation.
100% Open Source Core
Audit the codebase, contribute new features, or deploy your own self-hosted cluster directly from our official repository.
