What you can do with Souspli today
Souspli is a desktop app for macOS, Windows and Linux. Everything on these pages works in the current alpha; what does not work yet is on the status page rather than hidden.

The five-minute tour
- Install and open it. On first run Souspli creates an identity — a key that lives on your machine. There is no sign-up because there is nobody to sign up with.
- Press New → Memo. Fill it in under Edit, flip to View to see exactly what will be signed, press Publish, and confirm. You now hold a signed letter.
- Press Share… → Save as file… and send the
.thingfile to a friend by any means you like. They double-click it; Souspli verifies the signature and every attachment before showing a pixel, and tells them who signed it. - They press Comment, write a reply, and send that file back. Your copy of the memo now shows a comment under it — a thread, with no server in between.
Everything else — forums, contracts, votes, moderation — is that same loop with different types of letter.
