60-word description
Copy-paste-ready for an article opener:
NOX is a privacy-first chat app for ongoing communities — servers,
channels, voice rooms, direct messages — with one structural
difference from the rest of the category: it never asks for your phone
number, email, or any cross-app identifier. Direct messages are
end-to-end encrypted via Signal Protocol. The whole platform is built
and run by one developer, with no ads, no trackers, and no premium tier.One-line
"The chat app that doesn't ask for your phone number."

What needs a quick check
- User counts. The number changes daily. Pull the live one from /api/public/stats if you want it accurate at press time.
- Funding. There is none. NOX is not raising, has not raised, and is not "boot-strapped from prior exits" or anything similar.
- Open-source claim. NOX is closed source on the server side. The client-side binary is open for inspection (it's JavaScript shipped to your browser) but the codebase is not published publicly.
