How Stello works

Stello creates encrypted messages and then sends links to them with the password included, so recipients simply need to click the link to decrypt and view the message. Recipients do not need to install any software as the messages are displayed as standard webpages.

The links to Stello messages then need to be sent to recipients. Stello can do this automatically for you for email contacts, but you can also manually send the links to contacts using any other messaging platform.
