Element is launching the world’s first communications platform based on the upcoming Matrix 2.0 release. The result is blazing performance which outperforms the mainstream alternatives - across a decentralised system that enables self-hosting and end-to-end encryption - as well as open standard interoperability to revolutionise real time communication between large organisations.

Built on Matrix 2.0, Element X now rivals the performance of centralised consumer messaging apps, empowering organisations to address the shadow IT issues caused by consumer-grade messaging apps in the workplace.

The new Element communications solution consists:

Element X, our next-gen app with an array of new features

Element Call fully integrated into Element X, for native Matrix-encrypted voice and video

Element Server Suite, our backend hosting solution for powerful admin control and Matrix 2.0 performance

Wire supports it. Also more secure than Matrix

How is it more secure than matrix? I can't even self-host it.

Yes, you can. The server code is on github. But I don't know why you would, since all messages are encrypted client-side.

Its more secure because you know that all your users can't send a message unencrypted, either accidentally or intentionally.

there's a graphical indicator if they send something unencrypted, and there's no way to turn an encrypted chat into an unencrypted chat on matrix. Plus they start encrypted by default, I honestly don't even know how to make an unencrypted chat, I don't think there's any good way to other than using a client that doesn't have encryption.

this is not a real problem.
