<p>We will provide you with your own dedicated Matrix home server, as well as
a hosted web client. Matrix requires a domain name in order to join the global
networks, which will appear in your username (e.g.
<i>@penguin:example.0co2.cloud</i>): you can either use a subdomain of
<i>0co2.cloud</i> (e.g. <i>example.0co2.cloud</i>) or your own domain name. We
will deploy a <a href="https://github.com/42wim/matterbridge">Matterbridge</a>)
instance (bridging to Mattermost, IRC, Slack, Telegram, ...) on demand.
</p>
<p>There are <a href="https://matrix.org/clients/">many Matrix
clients</a>, although we <b>strongly recommend</b> <a
href="https://about.riot.im/features">Riot</a> which is the most
advanced at the moment. Be aware, however, that you might be a bit
confused with its UI/UX at first (there is ongoing work to improve
onboarding): we encourage you to <a href="https://riot.im/app/">try
Riot/Matrix</a> first if your are not already familiar with it.

<h2>How the pricing works</h2>
<p>We try to be as transparent as possible for our Matrix pricing. The pricing is made of 2 essential parts.
</p>
<ul>
<li>
a one-time set up fee for initially setting up the Matrix instance for you. We set up the Matrix and also customize* the login page with your own logo and text.
</li>
<li>
a monthly maintenance fee that includes the price of a dedicated virtual machine(VM)** and the fee for maintaining the service.
</li>
</ul>
<p>
You're all set with above 2 costs for starting your own Matrix.
</p>
<p>
* Further customization such as favicon, background and more is possible at additional fee, get in touch with us to learn more.
</p>
<p>
** The number of users or size of rooms depend on the size of your VM, and you can scale them anytime you want. The extention will be done according to <a href="https://datacenterlight.ch">our standard VM pricing.</a>

closer to what you expect for a enterprise team chat at the moment. We use both
at ungleich, since Matrix is especially convenient to reach out to the world!
