Their "how it works" blog article is worth a read - they're using a blackbox reverse engineering of the protocol and re-implementing it natively in the app, so there are no man-in-the-middle servers. Impressive software engineering for sure.

The app itself is closed-source, but they use PyPush, which also has a blog post explaining how it works.
You can ask more questions on Reddit!
If you have any questions, I'm hosting an ask-me-anything on reddit.com/r/beeper - feel free to ask any questions you have for us there (after reading our blog posts first to see if it's already been answered!)
Heads up: People on Lemmy typically hate Reddit. That’s why we’re here and not there.
