Germany's government-built alternative to Microsoft 365. A Kubernetes-based suite integrating Nextcloud, Element, OpenProject and Collabora, stewarded by a state-owned company for the public sector.

German-built, EUPL-licensed video conferencing for the European public sector. Self-hosted, GDPR-aligned, and the first VC service to earn Germany's BSI IT security label.

A self-hosted alternative to Microsoft 365: files, calendars, mail, chat and office, with every byte on infrastructure you control. Enterprise hardening and support are a paid subscription.

Zero-knowledge office suite (docs, sheets, slides, forms): the server stores only ciphertext, so even the admin cannot read your files. AGPL, EU-based; only managed hosting is paid.

AGPLv3 self-hosted collaborative LaTeX editor for academic and scientific writing. The free Community Edition omits SSO, per-user sandboxing, and Git sync, which sit behind the paid Server Pro tier.

The flagship secure collaboration client for the Matrix protocol. A decentralized, end-to-end encrypted alternative to Microsoft Teams.

Open-source virtual classroom platform built for education and government: self-hosted, privacy-first conferencing with breakout rooms, whiteboards, and session recording.

End-to-end encrypted messaging and collaboration on the MLS protocol. Swiss/EU jurisdiction, ISO 27001 certified. The self-hosted server is AGPL-3.0 with SAML SSO and SCIM included.

GPL-3.0 code editor: native Rust binary, zero telemetry, BYOK AI keeps source code off Zed's infrastructure. No compliance certs; local-only mode required for regulated environments.

Apache 2.0 team chat with topic-based threading: SAML, LDAP, and SCIM included at no cost; self-hosted deployment inherits your infrastructure's HIPAA and FERPA posture.

A secure, self-hostable, open-source communication platform designed for enterprises that prioritize data sovereignty and require a private alternative to SaaS chat solutions.
