About Baartalaap

Baartalaap — "conversation" — is a messaging platform built for how people in India actually talk: across languages, across families, across cities and villages. It combines private and group messaging, communities, and in-chat translation across thirteen Indian languages, so the person you're talking to can read your message in theirs without either of you switching apps.

What we're building

Private conversations are end-to-end encrypted by design. Identity verification is optional, never required, and never exposes your government ID to other users. Your data belongs to you — you can export it, restrict who sees it, and delete your account with a clear one-hour window to change your mind.

Where we are

Baartalaap is in active development. Core messaging, groups, communities and verification are being built and hardened before public launch; see our Privacy Policy for exactly what we collect and why.
