Voidcom is launching its beta soon. Things are moving fast, and we want to be transparent about what’s done, what’s in progress, and what’s coming next.
What’s already shipped
We’ve built the core communication experience from scratch:
- Voice chat with 5 quality presets — from competitive esports (5ms frames) to studio-quality music
- Real-time messaging with edit, delete, replies, reactions, @mentions, typing indicators, markdown, and full-text search
- Servers and channels with invites, server discovery, member management, and instant updates
- Roles and permissions with customizable hierarchy — control who can do what in your server
- Moderation tools including kick, ban, mute, ban lists with reasons, and role hierarchy enforcement
- Friends and direct messages with friend requests, online status, and private voice calls
- Video and screen sharing at up to 1080p @ 120 FPS with hardware-accelerated encoding
- DM encryption — direct messages are end-to-end encrypted; voice and server channels use transport encryption
- Invite system with shareable codes, usage limits, and expiry
- Server discovery so you can find and join public servers
- Desktop notifications with per-server and per-channel mute, plus Do Not Disturb
- Security with spam prevention, ban evasion protection, and encrypted connections
- Windows installer with one-click setup and automatic updates
That’s a lot of ground covered. But there’s more to do.
What we’re working on now
Profile pictures. Your avatar, everywhere — in chat, voice channels, and your friends list. Persistent storage and display.
E2E voice encryption. Adding end-to-end encryption for voice calls using secure key exchange and per-packet encryption. Voice currently uses transport encryption.
What’s coming next
Linux client. A native Linux desktop app with the same features as Windows.
Android client. Take your servers with you — voice and messaging on the go.
Web client. Jump into Voidcom from your browser, no install needed.
Call history. View your past voice calls with timestamps and participants.
Per-channel permissions. Override role permissions on individual channels.
Custom emoji. Upload and manage custom emoji for your server.
Data export & account deletion. Full GDPR data rights.
More server locations. Right now we’re running in a single region. We want to add more locations so you connect to the closest one and get lower latency.
Bot & app SDK. We want servers to be extensible — bots, integrations, maybe custom commands. This is still early, but it’s on our radar.
Always-on reliability. We’re scaling our infrastructure so Voidcom stays fast and stable as more people join.
