Rotki

Rotki is an open, self-hosted communication platform — you install it on your own hardware and keep full control of your data. Because it runs on infrastructure you control, your data stays with you and there is no subscription required to keep using it.

The project is developed in the open via GitHub, where it has earned 4.0K stars from the community. Repository activity was last recorded on Sep 11, 2026, and the project is classed as actively maintained in our snapshot.

Before you switch

Communication tools only work if your people can reach them. Check guest access, mobile apps, and federation or bridging support before migrating a community. Self-hosting gives you the data and the rules, but someone has to own updates and moderation.

Like every project listed on SelfHosted, Rotki is developed in the open — you can read the code, follow development, and even contribute. Check the system requirements and the project’s own documentation linked on this page before installing.
