Discover Element: The Open-Source Federated System for Secure Messaging, Voice, and Video


Element is a free, open-source app built on the Matrix protocol. It enables secure chats, voice calls, and video calls with end-to-end encryption (E2EE), group rooms, and file sharing.

Why Element Stands Out

• Federated & Decentralized – Communicate across different servers without vendor lock-in.
• Data Ownership – Self-host or use public servers while keeping control of your privacy.
• Open Source – Transparent and community-driven (AGPLv3/GPLv3).
• Cross-Platform – Works on web, desktop, and mobile with synced chat history.
• Bridging – Connects with Slack, IRC, Telegram, Jitsi, and more.
• Trusted – Used by journalists and governments for secure communications.

How It Works


Matrix replicates messages across federated servers, cryptographically signed to prevent tampering. Even if a server fails, your communication continues securely.

Conclusion


Element is ideal for teams, communities, and individuals who want secure, private, and interoperable communication without relying on centralized providers.
