Chat Bundle

Real-time team and community chat, for people who want to run it themselves.

The Chat Bundle runs group and direct messaging, video calls, file sharing, bots, moderation tools, and real-time presence on your own server. The nchat client is MIT licensed; this bundle unlocks the pro plugins (video calling, SMS OTP, helpdesk) that power those features when you self-host.

You're looking at the self-hosted Chat Bundle: install and run it yourself on your own server with the nSelf CLI.
