Problem
Teams and individuals often struggle to share and collaborate on diverse digital content—links, files, notes, voice recordings—without exposing data to third‑party platforms or requiring app installations, leading to fragmented workflows and privacy concerns.
Solution
new.space provides a web‑based, end‑to‑end encrypted workspace called a Space where users can combine any type of content side‑by‑side and share it instantly via a link or QR code that requires no download for viewers. Real‑time editing, chat, and emoji reactions keep discussions in context, while built‑in full‑text search lets participants locate information across all Spaces. The platform includes an AI proxy that routes requests to trusted providers (e.g., OpenAI, Anthropic) without logging or training on user data, and also supports local models for on‑device processing. Users can bring their own API keys for direct provider access, ensuring complete control over AI usage and privacy. The service is accessible via browsers on any device and an iOS app, with optional paid plans that add storage, AI credits, and customization features.
Target Audience
Primary users are remote teams, project groups, and knowledge workers who need secure, app‑free sharing and collaborative brainstorming, as well as individuals seeking a private, encrypted personal workspace.
