Riot has a very simple interface, adding the ability for more unexperienced users to use it.

Want to watch that flick at YouTube and discuss it at the same time? Have Grafana graphs stacked above your DevOps team chat? Collaboratively edit Google Docs and chat over without switching applications? This is possible with Riot.

You're not confined within Riot's or even Matrix garden, and you don't have to make users of other networks switch to Matrix.

With public rooms for many people, and you can create your own and let people from the community join.

Code snippets in chats can be highlighted with Markdown.

An open network for secure, decentralized communication.

Search messages in your current room, or all the rooms you're in. Not subject to a message history limit like Slack.

Web browser, Linux, OS X, Windows, Android, OS.

Riot allows for fully encrypted text, voice, and video chatting.

Send and receive messages from many devices for one account, not only from one device

An easy to activate integration that allows multiple authors to edit a document simultaneously.
