Chavid

A Better UK Alternative to Telegram — Chavid

A Better UK Alternative to Telegram

Move beyond basic calls and chat. Chavid brings HD group video, professional features and UK data storage together — with no downloads and no time limits.

Why Telegram Users Choose Chavid

A clearer, business-ready way to call and collaborate across the UK and Eastern Europe.

HD video for groups

Run polished HD group calls rather than relying on Telegram's limited calling experience — up to 100 participants with no time limits.

UK data storage

Keep your communications governed by UK data protection law. Telegram operates outside UK jurisdiction — Chavid doesn't.

Professional meetings

Use screen sharing, waiting rooms, recording and collaboration features for real work — features Telegram simply doesn't have.

Browser access

Invite anyone by link with no app download required. Clients and contacts join instantly from any browser on any device.

Persistent conversations

Keep group discussions organised with threads, pins and reactions — structured messaging built for teams, not just casual chat.

Built for teams

Give teams a focused professional space without mixing work into personal Telegram channels and groups.

Privacy by design

Choose a transparent UK platform built with GDPR at its core — not a messaging app that has faced repeated government pressure.
