Why Rocket.Chat?

Teams need internal chat, but customer-facing teams also need to communicate with customers across WhatsApp, SMS, and other channels. Running separate tools creates silos and inefficiencies. You need a unified platform for both internal and external communication—hosted on your infrastructure for data control.

How It Works

Rocket.Chat provides a single platform for team messaging and omnichannel customer engagement. Chat internally with channels and direct messages. Connect external channels like WhatsApp and SMS to bring customer conversations into one inbox. Deploy on-premises, in your cloud, or even air-gapped.

What Is Rocket.Chat?

Rocket.Chat is an open-source communications platform. It provides team messaging, omnichannel customer support, federation support, and AI integration. Self-host anywhere including air-gapped environments.
