INVITE-ONLY · macOS FIRST · FREE DURING BETA

Talk it through.Build on it.

Hohto is a chat app for small teams, communities, and personal projects.

Every Room includes chat plus separate collections for notes, files, links, and albums. Start with a small group, then move that same Room into an Org when you need roles, permissions, and audit controls.

ROOM ASSETS

Browse notes and files by Room—not by scrolling back through chat.

Each Room groups notes, files, links, and albums by type.

Copy an Asset to another Room.

ROOM TO ORG

Move a Room into an Org without leaving its history or Assets behind.

No Org setup is required for a small group to get started.

Once its members have joined the Org, the Room owner can transfer the existing Room and its child channels. Roles, permissions, invitations, AutoMod, and audit logs can then be added around the conversations and shared material already there.

For operators — Automation

Route service events to the Space that needs them.

Choose the incoming source, exact event types, Bot identity, and destination Space. Test the route before enabling it, then review retries and delivery history.

The sending service can submit events, but it cannot change the Bot or destination.

For developers — Agent Hub

Send instructions from a Room to Claude Code on your Mac, then follow its progress in the same Room.

With Hohto Desktop running, connect a local project to a Room.

Messages addressed to the agent are delivered to that project, while session updates, task events, and final responses return to the Room.
