Real-time screen sharing, group video, and crystal-clear voice chat — built on enterprise infrastructure that scales to millions.
Everything your community needs to connect in real time — text, voice, video, screen sharing, and the richest bot ecosystem anywhere.
Share your screen in full HD with anyone in your group. Perfect for presentations, code reviews, watch parties, or troubleshooting together. Powered by LiveKit's enterprise-grade WebRTC stack.
Crystal-clear group video calls with adaptive bitrate, automatic speaker focus, and noise suppression. See everyone on a dynamic grid that scales from 2 to 25+ participants.
Drop-in, drop-out voice channels — just like being in the same room. Ultra-low latency audio with echo cancellation, per-user volume, and server-wide voice activity indicators.
Threaded conversations, reactions, @mentions, inline embeds, file sharing, and full Markdown support. Organized channels keep your community connected at any scale.
Run your existing Discord bots on Loqa with a single import change. Commands, slash commands, embeds, buttons, selects, modals, and cogs — all fully compatible.
Import your entire emoji library with full Lottie animation support. Animated stickers, custom emoji packs, and pack-level one-click migration from other platforms.
Whether it's your bots, your emoji packs, or your community — migration is measured in seconds, not days.
Loqa mirrors the discord.py and discord.js API surface-for-surface. Change one import and your bot runs on Loqa. No refactoring. No rewriting. No surprises.
Import your entire emoji and sticker library in a single action. Loqa supports full Lottie animation playback — your animated emoji look and move exactly how they were designed.
Upload an entire emoji pack at once. Loqa auto-detects formats, preserves names, and organizes them into browsable collections.
Animated emoji rendered with the Lottie engine — smooth 60fps animations, tiny file sizes, and perfect quality at any resolution.
Import from Telegram, Discord-style packs, or any standard format. Static PNG, APNG, GIF, WebP, and Lottie TGS all supported.

What we're building next — including managed self-hosting on major infrastructure providers.
Your own Loqa instance on Hetzner or AWS. Fully managed by us — automatic updates, backups, and scaling. Isolation of self-hosting with zero DevOps overhead.
Maximum privacy on offshore infrastructure like Shinjiru. Enhanced data sovereignty, no logs, full jurisdictional separation.
Stay on the main Loqa platform with all its features while your managed instance mirrors messages, files, and channels in real time — a secure, always-current backup you fully control.
Native iOS and Android with push notifications, background voice, and picture-in-picture video.
Loqa's cloud is engineered for scale from day one.
Async I/O with Tokio. Millions of concurrent WebSocket connections per node with minimal memory overhead.
Global points of presence for sub-50ms message delivery. Media served from the nearest edge node.
Horizontal scaling triggered by load. From 100 to 10 million users — infrastructure grows with your community.
Enterprise-grade voice, video, and screen sharing. Adaptive bitrate, simulcast, and global relay infrastructure.
Create your free account. Migrate your bots with one line. Import your emoji packs in one step. Scale to millions.
