Self-hosted Windows desktop chat

Private team chat that runs on your server.

FitzX Chat gives small teams, offices, creators, and private groups a clean desktop chat system with rooms, file sharing, admin controls, voice/video support, and no forced cloud lock-in.

  • Your server
  • Your users
  • Your data

Built for ownership

Sellable chat software without putting customer conversations on your personal server.

FitzX Chat is designed as a client-server package. The buyer runs FitzX Server on their own machine, office server, or VPS. Their desktop clients connect to their server address, while paid activation stays protected by the FitzX-owned activation service.

Screenshots

Why buyers care

Everything a private group needs to start talking.

01

Self-hosted privacy

Customers can run FitzX Server on their own computer, office network, or VPS so messages stay under their control.

02

Rooms and private chat

Create public rooms, locked rooms, admin spaces, and focused conversations for different teams or groups.

03

File sharing

Share images, documents, and attachments directly inside the chat flow with room history preserved on the buyer's server.

04

Voice and video support

Add live conversation when text is not enough, with desktop permissions configured for microphone and camera access.

05

Admin controls

Manage users, rooms, approvals, files, and settings from a dedicated admin area.

06

Windows installer

Package the desktop client for buyers with FitzX branding, installer flow, and a guided server-address setup.

Simple buyer setup

Install server. Invite users. Start chatting.

1

Install FitzX Server

The buyer runs the server on their own computer, office server, or hosted VPS.

2

Enter their server address

Desktop clients connect to the buyer's IP address or domain, not CaptByrd's personal server.

3

Activate and chat

The buyer owns their users, rooms, uploads, and message history while FitzX validates the paid activation.

Safe demo route

Show FitzX without exposing your private server.

Use a clean demo route for sales calls and early buyers. Keep personal IP addresses, private keys, test users, and real chat files out of the public website.

Recommended demo address

demo.fitzx.net

Point this subdomain to a clean demo server when you are ready. Demo data should be reset often and kept separate from your real FitzX install.

Request demo access

Public website

Shows screenshots, benefits, yearly license terms, and demo request buttons.

Clean demo server

Runs sample rooms and test accounts only. No private chats, uploads, or personal files.

Buyer install

After purchase, the buyer enters their own server IP or domain, then activates through the FitzX activation service.

Positioning

Not another rented cloud workspace.

Cloud-only apps: simple to start, but customer data lives on someone else's platform.

FitzX Chat: a branded desktop chat product customers can run privately on their own server.

Future option: FitzX Cloud can come later for customers who want hosted convenience.

Questions buyers ask

Clear answers before they contact you.

Does FitzX use my server or the buyer's server?

The self-hosted package uses the buyer's server for chat data. Paid activation is verified through the FitzX-owned activation service.

Does FitzX include my personal chats or files?

No sale package should include personal chats, uploaded files, logs, private keys, or live user data.

Can the branding stay FitzX?

Yes. Buyers use their own server, but the desktop app, installer, logo, and product name remain FitzX.

How do yearly license activations work?

Each buyer receives a FitzX activation from the FitzX-owned activation service. Monthly licenses renew month to month, and yearly licenses renew once per year at the better rate.

Can I pay with Cash App?

Yes. Cash App payments are accepted during launch. After payment is confirmed, FitzX sends the protected download and activation key.

Is this for Windows?

The first commercial package is focused on Windows desktop. Other platforms can be added later.
