Is app.revolt.chat legit or a scam?
Legitimate open-source Discord alternative with UK business registration, but flagged by security vendors in 2023 and rated cautiously by independent reviewers.
These checks passed — but they don't clear the site. A clean antivirus result, valid SSL, and a calm server only mean it isn't hosting malware; they say nothing about whether the business is real. This verdict is based on the site's conduct and content, not a malware detection.

MT Intelligence
Revolt is a genuine open-source communication platform launched in 2021 and operated by REVOLT PLATFORMS LTD, a UK-registered active company with verifiable contact details and presence on GitHub, Google Play, and Flathub. The domain itself is 6 years old and shows no signs of phishing, credential harvesting, or financial fraud. However, the domain was blocked by security vendors in 2023 after user reports of riskware detection, and independent trust aggregators assign it a moderate score (59/100) citing limited reputation data and mixed signals. Our antivirus network shows no current detections, and the hosting infrastructure is clean. The cautious rating appears to stem from the project's relative obscurity compared to mainstream platforms rather than confirmed malicious activity. Community feedback on Reddit is generally positive regarding privacy and features.
