Today we're opening the Kool beta. Messages, calls, meetings, mail, stories with music, posts and clips. One app, one identity, zero juggling.
We built Kool because your life doesn't come in five separate apps. Your group chat becomes a call, the call becomes a meeting, the meeting ends with a clip everyone shares, and it all stays in one place.
Invites roll out in waves. Everyone who joins now shapes what Kool becomes.
A story without a soundtrack is a screenshot. Kool stories ship with a public music catalog built in. Pick the track, trim the moment, post.
No app-switching, no muted clips, no copyright roulette. The music is licensed, the flow is instant, and it works the same for everyone.
Kool doesn't run in one data center. It runs in hundreds of cities at once, on a globally distributed edge network.
Your messages, media and calls are served from the closest point on Earth to you. That's why Kool feels instant in Luanda, Lisbon or Los Angeles. Same app, same speed.
No origin servers to overload, no single point of failure.
Email lives in one app, meetings in another, chat in a third, and you in between, copy-pasting links. Kool ends that.
Your mailbox sits next to your messages. A thread becomes a meeting in one tap. Notes and files stay attached to the people they belong to.
Link your existing Gmail if you want, or don't. Either way, everything finally shares one home.
Every Kool call and live session runs over encrypted WebRTC. Data is encrypted in transit and at rest, and sign-in is passwordless, using a one-time code, never a password to steal.
Optional authenticator 2FA and per-device session control put you in charge of your account. Privacy isn't a setting in Kool. It's the default.
Bold Anton display type, deep dark canvases, one violet accent and motion that means something. Kool's design language is built to feel like one product everywhere.
The same 3D menu, the same page transitions, the same grid from the landing page to the smallest legal page. Consistency is the feature.
Clips are Kool's short-video feed, made for sharing moments with people you actually know, not for feeding an outrage algorithm.
No cross-app tracking profile decides what you see. No data broker gets a copy. You post a clip, your people see it, and it stays yours.
Short video doesn't have to cost you your privacy. Clips is how we prove it.
A Kool group is a chat, a call, a meeting room, a shared story and a mailbox, all in the same place, with the same people.
Plan the trip in the thread, jump on the group call, drop the photos as a story, and mail the itinerary, without ever leaving the group.
Reliability should be public. status.k00l.app shows the real-time health of every Kool system, and the same live signal is displayed right in our site footer and Trust Center.
When something degrades, you see it when we do. No hiding, no vague tweets. That's what always-on accountability looks like.
No links to copy, no apps to install, no "can you see my screen?" ritual. In Kool, any chat becomes a meeting in one tap, with the same people, the same history, the same place.
Encrypted WebRTC keeps it private, and when the meeting ends, the notes and files stay in the thread where they belong.
Kool Live isn't a stage for strangers. It's a room for your people. Go live to a group, a circle of friends or your followers, with real-time chat riding alongside.
Encrypted, low-latency and built on the same edge network as everything else in Kool, so it holds up even on imperfect connections.
A social app is only as good as it is safe. Kool pairs in-app reporting with automated moderation that catches abuse fast, while keeping humans in the loop for the calls that need judgement.
Block, restrict and report are one tap away everywhere, and repeat abusers lose the network, not just one thread.
See every device signed into your Kool account, when it was last active, and sign any of them out remotely. One screen, no support ticket.
Add authenticator-app 2FA and single-use recovery codes, and a lost phone becomes an inconvenience instead of an emergency.
Big condensed headlines, a near-black canvas, one violet accent and photography that breathes. Kool's look is loud where it matters and quiet everywhere else.
It's the same system across the app, the website, the Trust Center and this newsroom: one brand, no surprises.
Apps fight for your attention. Kool is designed to give it back: notifications are grouped, quiet hours are honoured, and nothing pings you to "come back" for the algorithm's sake.
You'll hear about the things that involve you, not the things that engage you.
Media in Kool is stored on globally distributed object storage and served from the edge, so a clip posted in Luanda plays instantly in Paris.
Validated uploads, signed URLs and per-owner isolation keep your media yours. Fast and private aren't a trade-off here.
Link your Gmail to Kool and it stays your mail: we access it under Google's Limited Use policy, never sell or mine it, and never use it for ads.
The mailbox is there so your life fits in one app, not so your inbox becomes a data source.
k00l.app, with two zeros, started as a joke about domain hunting and became the point: Kool is built different, down to the spelling.
The zeros stand for what we removed: zero passwords, zero trackers. What's left is the app.
Beta invites are rolling, and the roadmap is public in spirit: richer group calls, smarter mail, creator tools for clips and stories, and the Android release right behind iOS.
We ship in the open. Follow this newsroom and status.k00l.app, and tell us what to build next. The best ideas in Kool came from users.
