Element is a decentralized messenger built on the Matrix protocol. With end-to-end encryption enabled by default, it ensures true privacy where even server operators cannot read message content.

• Decentralized architecture using the Matrix protocol with federation across servers
• Default end-to-end encryption via the Olm/Megolm cryptographic protocols
• Bridge support connecting Slack, Discord, Telegram, IRC, and other services
• Voice and video calls with Element Call for group conferences and screen sharing
• Spaces for organizing channels into team or project groupings
• Cross-platform with Web, Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, and Android clients

Built with React and TypeScript, Element is trusted by the French government, German armed forces, and NATO for sovereignty-critical communications. It provides the strongest privacy guarantees among messaging platforms.
