<h2>What is Matrix?</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p><a href="https://matrix.org/">Matrix</a> is a modern and decentralised,
|
|
open-source chat solution backed by a dynamic community. It provides advanced user-focused features such as end-to-end encryption, bridging or audio
|
|
& video calls.</a></p>

<div class="col-md-9">
|

<ul>
|
|
<li>
|
|
The strongest point of Matrix is <b>federation</b>: a Matrix homeserver allows you to manage your own community and to join the whole
|
|
Matrix network. You will be able to exchange with users on any other Matrix
|
|
server without any special configuration!
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
You can enable end-to-end encryption (E2EE): only the sender and
|
|
intended receiver(s) will be able to read the messages. Even ungleich, who
|
|
manages the matrix server, will not be able to access the content of E2EE
|
|
messages.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
Our Matrix servers are provided with a TURN server: you'll be
|
|
able to use voice and video calls out of the box.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
You can bridge to other networks: Mattermost instances, IRC,
|
|
Slack, Telegram and more via <a
|
|

The evolution of Matrix is managed through an open governance process,
|
|
supervised by [The Matrix.org Foundation](https://matrix.org/foundation).
|
|
All the software backing the network is [Free and Open
|
|
Source](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_and_open-source_software), which
|
|
guarantees quality and security.

Both end-to-end encryption and federation are *built-in* into Matrix. The
|
|
former will be enabled by default in the near future, making it a valuable tool
|
|
for activists and privacy-minded people all across the world.

We host your Matrix homeserver in our [own
|
|
datacenter](/u/projects/data-center-light/) in Switzerland, which we believe to
|
|
be as ecologically-friendly as a datacenter can get: we use old factory halls,
|
|
recycled servers, passive cooling and our servers are directly plugged into a
|
|
hydroelectric power plant.

<h2>Growing fast!</h2>
|
|
<p>As of February 2020, the Matrix network supports ~13.5M visible
|
|
accounts, ~5.0M messages a day, ~40.000 federated servers and even <a
|
|
href="https://archive.fosdem.org/2019/schedule/event/matrix_french_state/">governments</a>!</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>A lot of privacy, security and usability work is going on: Matrix will get even more awesome in the coming months!</p>
|
|
|

<h2>Hosted Matrix Chat</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>We 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.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>There are <a href="https://matrix.org/clients/">many Matrix
|
|
clients</a>, although we <b>strongly recommend</b> <a
|
|
href="https://github.com/vector-im/element-web/">Element web</a> which is the most
|
|
advanced at the moment.
|
|
</p>

|
|

|
|
<div class="col-md-6">
|
|
<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>
