Nextcloud Talk (spreed) is a self-hosted video, audio, and text chat conferencing app for Nextcloud. It supports private, group, public, and password-protected calls, screen sharing, federated chats across Nextcloud servers, and Matterbridge integration for syncing other chat platforms.

Use cases

• self-host a private video conferencing server for my team
• replace Zoom or Slack with a GDPR-compliant open-source alternative
• chat and share files with colleagues inside my Nextcloud instance
• host password-protected or public webinar-style calls
• bridge my Nextcloud chat with Mattermost, IRC, or other chat platforms
• run screen-sharing meetings on my own infrastructure
• set up federated chat between two Nextcloud servers

When to choose

• you already run Nextcloud and want integrated chat and calls
• data sovereignty, GDPR compliance, or air-gapped deployment is required
• you want a self-hosted alternative to Zoom, Slack, or Teams
• you need federation or Matterbridge syncing with other chat systems

When to avoid

• you have no Nextcloud instance and don't want to self-host
• you need massive-scale webinars with managed infrastructure
• you require TURN-server-free connectivity for users behind strict symmetric NATs without admin capability
