Why everything in Qaxa starts with the Sidebar

In Qaxa, the sidebar is where everything begins. It’s where you go to move — not to get lost. A single place for everything that matters.

The problem

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 keeping you busy.

The idea

We built one sidebar to rule them all. Like an inbox — but for encrypted 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

Quick actions sit in one dropdown: create a space, invite someone, make a folder. Always one click away. No circus.

Search

Fast. Live. Brutally simple. Just type — it filters as you go.

See all your spaces

Everything you’ve created or joined lives in one list, sorted by what’s active. If something’s new, it lights up. Need structure? Just move it into a folder.

Connect with people

People you’ve talked to are always in view. Online users glow with a ring. Click to open a private chat — one-to-one, instant, encrypted.

Why we like it

It feels calm. You always know what’s happening. You’re never more than a click away from the next thing. And unlike most tools, we don’t try to hijack your focus. We help you move it — intentionally.

What’s next

We might add keyboard shortcuts, drag-and-drop folders, maybe even theming for the wild ones. But the core idea stays the same: one sidebar, all your worlds, always in reach.
