YEO (pronounced ‘Yo’, and an acronym for Your Eye Only) was founded by a team of technology, security and design specialists. Disturbed by the lack of trust in existing messaging platforms – particularly in a business setting -they developed their own, packed with features that place control into the hands of the user, and not the platform owner.
YEO is available for business and individual users who want to know that the messages, files and media they share are secure, private, and only being viewed by the intended recipient, whether that’s a private picture or sensitive documents. As well as end-to-end encryption and geofencing features, we’re the only app of our kind to use continuous facial recognition to verify not just the device, but the person looking at it.
