The sidebar: Your command center
Your screen real estate is your most valuable resource, yet most apps treat it like a dumping ground. They confuse "features" with "clutter," filling your sidebar with buttons you never click and integrations you never asked for.
We believe navigation should be quiet. It should act like a Heads-Up Display (HUD)—giving you total situational awareness without forcing you to take your eyes off the objective.
Navigation as noise
Most tools scatter your attention. Projects in one tab. People in another. Notifications in a third. Before you know it, you’re juggling windows instead of getting work done. The design isn’t helping you—it’s leaking your focus.
The Qaxa sidebar
One context to hold it all. Like an inbox—but for secure collaboration. No tabs. No noise. Just signals. You see what changed, who’s online, and where to jump in. One glance. One move. That’s it.
How it works
The universal action button (+)
Quick actions sit in one dropdown: Create a space. Invite a contact. Secure a folder. Always one click away. You don't need to hunt through menus to start working.
Search
Fast. Live. Brutally simple. Just type—it filters your encrypted index locally as you go.
Your world (spaces)
Everything you’ve created or joined lives in one list. If something’s new, it lights up. Need structure? Drag spaces into folders to compartmentalize your chaos.
Direct lines (people)
Your trusted network is always in view. Online users have a green pulse. Click to open a private line—one-to-one, instant, encrypted.
The result
Situational awareness. You always know what’s happening without being overwhelmed. You’re never more than a click away from the next objective. We don’t try to hijack your focus. We help you direct it.
What’s next
We are doubling down on speed: global keyboard shortcuts, drag-and-drop organization, and rapid-entry modes. The core idea stays the same: one sidebar, all your worlds, always within reach.
