US Investors Look to aOK, the Social Network Enabling Business Growth with a Direct Line to Real People
Tuesday, 11 February, aOK, an invite-only messaging channel, is drawing significant attention from US investors as the secure messaging app market is set to grow by billions.
NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / February 12, 2025 / aOK, an invite-only messaging channel, is drawing significant attention from US investors as the secure messaging app market is set to grow by billions.
According to recent reports, the global secure messaging app market was valued at $24.69 billion in 2024 and is projected to grow to $64.1 billion by 2032. This growth is driven by rising consumer demand for secure messaging channels following the increasing adoption of mobile devices. As the consumer demand for secure communication channels grows, investors have identified an opportunity to invest in platforms that prioritize user privacy and security.
aOK, which is set to launch soon, features capabilities that are a robust step forward in tackling issues surrounding malicious online communication, built on secure and private infrastructure. Combining reputable and assured identity verification abilities creates a safer online space and alleviates the risks posed by scams, fake accounts, and bots.

Negative comments and fake news spread by bots and fake profiles can lead to loss of consumer trust, decreased sales, and heightened costs.
