Alternative to Slack

Zulip is a chat platform built around a unique topic-based threading model. Each conversation within a channel is organized by topic, preventing discussions from getting lost even in large teams.

  • Topic-based threads — each conversation gets a subject line, making it easy to follow context
  • Powerful search across messages, topics, senders, and dates
  • Rich Markdown support including code blocks, LaTeX math, and tables
  • 200+ integrations with GitHub, Jira, Jenkins, Sentry, Trello, and more
  • Proven scalability for tens of thousands of users, used by Dropbox and LevelUp
  • Native mobile and desktop applications for access from anywhere

Built with Python and Django, Zulip is available for self-hosting or as a managed cloud service. Licensed under Apache-2.0, it is particularly well-suited for remote teams that value asynchronous communication.
