Architectural Highlights

Native Rust & Tauri Core: Memory-safe native execution with ultra-low RAM footprint compared to heavy browser-based Electron apps.
SQLite FTS5 Full-Text Search: Sub-10ms queries across tens of thousands of messages using BM25 ranking algorithms.
Hardware Freedom (2 Seats): 2 active seats per license with zero RAM or SSD lockouts and 1-click atomic seat transfer.
Privacy Shield & Spy Pixel Blocker: Neutralizes tracking pixels and web beacons before they ping remote marketing analytics servers.
Offline Outbox Queue: Seamlessly queue messages while disconnected; automatic exponential-backoff delivery upon reconnection.
OS Credential Vault Protection: Delegated keychain storage (GNOME Keyring, Windows Credential Manager, macOS Keychain) ensures credentials are never stored in plaintext.
