About

I am the founder of SimpleX Chat – the first (and the only?) messaging network operating without user identifiers of any kind, not even random numbers are used to identify user profiles – it is 100% private by design!

SimpleX Chat is the next generation of decentralized communications. You can start using our private messaging apps for console, iOS and Android – install the app, join our Mastodon, Nostr, Twitter/X or Reddit community and support us with donations!

I also created Ajv data validation library – it is used by millions of JavaScript applications and has ~600m monthly downloads on npm.
