About:
Matterbridge is a versatile chat bridge that seamlessly integrates multiple communication protocols and platforms. It enables bi-directional message relaying between services like Slack, Discord, Matrix, IRC, and many others. This allows teams to maintain their preferred tools while ensuring everyone stays connected in a unified communication flow.
Key Features:
  • Supports over 20 chat platforms including Slack, Discord, and IRC
  • Bi-directional message synchronization
  • Highly configurable with simple TOML files
  • Self-hosted for maximum privacy and control
  • Lightweight Go binary with no external dependencies
Use Cases:
  • Connecting open-source community channels (e.g., IRC) with modern team chat apps
  • Unifying disparate corporate communication tools into a single stream
  • Bridging public chat rooms to private team channels for moderation
Alternatives:
  • Matrix bridges – Matrix offers a federated ecosystem with its own bridges, but Matterbridge is protocol-agnostic and supports a wider array of native integrations without requiring a Matrix homeserver.
