• Personal channel of real time communication.
• Share intimate pictures with family and friends.
• Share private and confidential videos or documents with each other.
• Discover for yourself your children’s friends, parent’s friends and etc within your own secure private network.
• Share your daily activities online with your friends and family and not loss your privacy or that of your community.
• And much more, the possibilities are endless!

If all these sounds exciting to you, then Hiitch is what you want! We at Hiitch have decided to take a three step approach to helping you achieve all that we have mentioned above. We want to thank all those who have written to us about your opinions on open sourcing Hiitch. After considering all your suggestions, we have decided to move Hiitch in these three stages:

Stage 1: Hiitch is close source and only the client is available for download. Join us to actively build the Hiitch community together.
Stage 2: Make both the server and client binaries available for you to use and build your own private desktop social networks.
Stage 3: If our community of users have a strong desire to open source Hiitch, then we will open source Hiitch!

All that we ask of you is to help build the Hiitch community with us. Get involve with us by telling us why you want a system like Hiitch. If you want to try Hiitch to see what you can do with it, then join our community today! You can download a completely free copy of Hiitch client from our website to try it out as a demo. Currently we have a very limited network bandwidth used for demo purposes only so you may experience a slight issue in terms of performance but it should give you a good feel of the product features and what you can use it for.

In the future, we hope to allow you (our community) to decide on the features that you would like to have on Hiitch or to contribute code to Hiitch if we do open source it depending on your demand. We can even collaborate and build decentralized desktop networks to help everyone on Hiitch to stay connected, if desired. Come join us and participate in a new era of personal desktop social networking. let us create social networking history together today!

Help us spread the word if what we have proposed interest you and become part of our community decision making process.
