AIM is already making a comeback thanks to incredible open-source projects like Retro AIM Server (RAS) and others keeping the protocol alive.

IMPACT is our way of making that revival accessible. We're taking the powerful work that's already been done and wrapping it in tooling, automation, and a modern interface — so anyone, not just tinkerers, can bring back their own piece of the buddy list era.

While we appreciate the vision behind monolithic AIM revival projects — where all users share a single server— and respect the real progress they've made, we believe that giving people the option to run their own servers is just as important.

Whether it's for privacy, customization, or just the joy of owning your own corner of the internet, IMPACT makes that not only possible, but easy.
