Be in Your Element with Secure, Sovereign Communication

In an age where digital collaboration is vital to how organizations operate, Element offers a refreshing promise: communication on your terms. Designed to empower both security and sovereignty, Element is more than just a messaging app—it's a robust platform built by the original creators of Matrix, the open communication standard.

Element began its journey under different names—Vector and later Riot—but its mission has always been consistent: to give users full control over their communications. Today, as Element, it provides a secure, compliant, and deeply customizable environment for businesses and communities alike.

Security and Sovereignty by Design

At its core, Element is engineered for protection and compliance. Whether you're coordinating internally or with external partners, it ensures that your conversations remain private, tamper-proof, and fully under your control. Built on the Matrix JS SDK, the platform allows for end-to-end encrypted communication, leaving no room for compromise when it comes to privacy.

Full Control Over Your Data

Unlike conventional platforms that lock your data behind proprietary walls, Element takes a different approach. It's open source, offering you the freedom to choose how and where your data is hosted. Whether you opt for a self-hosted deployment or a fully managed solution through the Element Server Suite, you're in the driver’s seat. Custom network configurations and permission settings let you build an environment that reflects your organization's unique needs.

Built for Real-Time Collaboration

Element connects people across departments, teams, and even companies, enabling real-time communication without barriers. Whether it's a quick chat or a multi-organization collaboration, Element makes it seamless. The frontend—your Element app—offers an intuitive interface for daily interaction, while the backend architecture can be customized extensively to fit your existing infrastructure.

Powering the Future with Matrix

Underpinning Element is the Matrix open standard, which defines how data is stored, synchronized, and federated. This foundation ensures that your communication setup is interoperable, future-proof, and extensible. You’re not tied to a single vendor or stack—you’re building on a protocol that evolves with your needs.

A Platform That Works With You

Element isn't just about sending messages. It's about building trust through communication. From supporting mission-critical business operations to enabling secure conversations across borders and organizations, Element equips you with the tools to collaborate confidently—and independently.

Stay sovereign. Stay secure. Be in your Element.
