Live your own story

Arc (formerly Nocturne) can be used in the same way as WhatsApp, Telegram, and Signal. The key difference is our unwavering commitment to privacy. We do not monitor, divert, or resell messages, ensuring your conversations are truly your own.

 

Our monetization is planned to be income from advertisements and subscriptions for feature extensions and premium functionalities, only after we have implemented our blockchain and Mesh Network features. We explicitly state that we will never sell user's message content to third parties, unlike other companies.

 

Messages sent and received by the user will disappear from all devices and servers the next time the app is launched, after 1 day or a set time has passed. This concept of "disappearing," which we call "Ignite the Fire," holds a special meaning for us. We wish for our users to keep what's important in mind, to cherish each and every message, and to have fun. At the same time, we've put our thoughts into "igniting a fire in people's hearts and lighting a torch for new encounters." We aim to reduce the sadness caused by people who are not good at expressing their feelings or who tend to misunderstand. We strive to create a market that makes the digital world a better place through a messaging app that makes people feel a little better.

The Story Behind Our Name

 

While the name Nocturne was inspired by the idea that "cherishing the present creates wonderful memories when looking back in the future," we chose to rebrand to Arc because it better represents our mission. Arc has been our internal project name since 2023, symbolizing a bridge that connects people and cultures. It embodies the core values we now stand for: Accessible, Reliable, and Confidential. By rebranding, we are clarifying our commitment to building a platform that not only protects privacy but also makes communication truly secure, accessible, and reliable for everyone.
