This is how Matrix democratises control over communication.īy default, Matrix uses simple HTTPS+JSON APIs as its baseline transport, but also embraces more sophisticated transports such as WebSockets or ultra-low-bandwidth Matrix via CoAP+Noise. This means that every server has total self-sovereignty over its users data - and anyone can choose or run their own server and participate in the wider Matrix network.

Remove communication barriers so your team can seamlessly brainstorm together, capture messages, share updates, and express ideas. Just click the WhatsApp icon in your sidebar and scan a QR code with your phone to sync your WhatsApp account. Even if your server goes offline, the conversation can continue uninterrupted elsewhere until it returns. With the web version of WhatsApp built into Opera Browser, you can message others and send media on your desktop computer while you browse the web. There is no single point of control or failure in a Matrix conversation which spans multiple servers: the act of communication with someone elsewhere in Matrix shares ownership of the conversation equally with them. Choose the best channel for your communication, including: Instant messaging (IM) Audio Video Integrated web conferencing.

When you send a message in Matrix, it is replicated over all the servers whose users are participating in a given conversation - similarly to how commits are replicated between Git repositories. Matrix is really a decentralised conversation store rather than a messaging protocol.
