Open source communications platform for the AI age
Open source team chat and communications platform Rocket.Chat is one of the largest active open source (permissive MIT license) nodeJS communications platform communities on GitHub, connecting 2,500+ global community contributors (across projects) from 30+ countries, with 41,700+ GitHub stars, 11,100 forks, 1,005+ total releases and 15,100+ issues since inception in 2015. Rocket.Chat is a team chat platform written in full-stack Typescript. It offers a fully featured team chat experience on modern browsers, comparable to Slack and Microsoft Teams. Mobile and desktop clients run on iOS, Android, Mac, Windows, and Linux. The server can scale from a small family messaging server for 5 users on a Raspberry Pi 5, to clustered micro-services configuration that can support hundred thousands of users. On-premises Rocket.Chat can ensure 100% complete security and privacy of your valuable communications/data. Rocket.Chat is now installed on over 500k servers and counts over 12m users worldwide. Federated communication support extends our reach exponentially. Users can set up Rocket.Chat on cloud or by hosting their own servers on-premises. Thanks to its extension support via Rocket.Chat Apps, and rich APIs, startups and innovators have customized Rocket.Chat into new products and services. Omnichannel extends reach to wherever user may be including WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook Messenger and more. Increasingly, innovators in Generative AI and LLM app developers are launching their concepts on the Rocket.Chat platform to keep all data flows and communications 100% private and secure. Rocket.Chat has won multiple prizes such as a 2016 Bossie Award for Best Open Source Application and first prize in the 2017 edition of All Things Open’s Startup Competition. Rocket.Chat's community interacts 24 x 7 at the community Rocket.Chat server https://open.rocket.chat since 2015.
