FROST/1 protocol · voucher-based access

A VPN that doesn't look like one.

Encrypted traffic, a node directory you choose from, per-app split tunneling, and a voucher instead of an account. No email, no card, no logs.

Why FROST/1

Four problems most VPNs leave on the table — and what we do about them. Without revealing how, because the how is part of the protection.

Looks like normal traffic

Networks with deep inspection block obvious VPN signatures. FROST/1 is shaped not to look like a VPN. How — stays private; that is part of the protection.

Voucher-based identity

No email, no account, no card. Identity is a voucher — bearer code, redeemable, transferable. Nothing to leak in a breach because nothing is stored.

You choose the node

The directory is open: pick a country and region, switch any time. No forced rotation, no opaque "smart routing" deciding for you.

Split tunneling out of the box

Pick which apps go through the tunnel; the rest stays direct. Banking and taxi apps still work normally. Not a paid upgrade — included.

Vouchers & account

Pay with vouchers: you buy a period of access and manage it in your account. The Telegram bot is an extra channel — not the only way in.

Why trust QPOL

No glossy claims. Five facts about how the project is set up — including the things we deliberately don't have.

Founded in 2026.

Independent project, not a rebrand. No legal entity tied to a specific country — that is intentional: fewer points where someone can be compelled to hand over user data.

No account, no payment trail.

Identity is the voucher. No email collected. No card linked to traffic. No profile to subpoena.

No-logs by design, not by promise.

The system has no place to remember who went where. We do not promise privacy — we structure the service so private is the default.

Server directory is public.

The list of nodes and countries is open and you choose the route. No black-box "smart" rotation deciding for you.

Independent security review — on roadmap.

When it happens, we will publish it here. We are not pretending it has already happened.

No whitepaper, on purpose.

Publishing protocol internals would help adversaries write signatures to detect us. We prefer to be useful to you and invisible to them.

FAQ

Yes. Create an account and we credit a starter balance — enough for a real-world test on your network. No card, no voucher.

Android, Android TV, CLI, Windows and Linux are live. iOS, macOS and Apple TV are on the roadmap — leave your email under "Install on your devices" to get notified.

In your account. The cabinet shows balance, active vouchers, the token-to-currency rate and notifications. Telegram alerts are optional.

Yes — the node directory is open. Pick by country and region, switch any time, no rotation forced on you.

Telegram or email — both are listed below. We answer in English and Russian within one business day.

Yes. On Android you mark which apps go through the tunnel; the rest stays direct. Useful for banking, taxi and food-delivery apps that misbehave on a foreign exit.

Concurrent device limits are tied to the voucher type. The cabinet shows the current count and lets you sign out a session if you need to free a slot.

FROST/1 is purpose-built for our service. The relevant difference for you: it is shaped not to look like a VPN to the network it traverses. We do not publish protocol internals — that is part of the protection.

We test regularly and the design optimises for hostile networks, but we do not guarantee 100% reachability anywhere — networks evolve. The starter balance is exactly for testing this on your network without risk.

Yes. Vouchers are bearer codes — share the code and the recipient redeems it in their app or cabinet.

Yes — the Personal server tier gives you a dedicated node with your choice of country and a clean outbound IP. See the Personal server page.

There is no per-user identity to hand over. Identity is the voucher, payment is anonymous, and the system is designed without an analytics ledger linking voucher to traffic.
