Orvia – Spin up a real-time room, share files, leave – everything disappears

yc_surajkr Sunday, February 22, 2026

I built Orvia — a real-time, temporary collaboration room for instant conversations and fast media sharing.

~200 users have tried it so far. The main feedback wasn’t about missing features, but UX:

UI felt too “hacker tool”

Empty rooms felt awkward

Too many visible actions

So I redesigned it to feel calmer and frictionless.

The idea is simple: Create a room → Share the link → Talk & share files → Leave → Room disappears.

No accounts. No setup. No stored history.

It’s built for quick, private, zero-overhead collaboration — not persistent communities.

Would really appreciate honest feedback on UX and real-time experience or any missing feature.
