Overview

What is Tinode?

Tinode is an open-source instant messaging platform, designed mobile-first and presented as a free alternative to WhatsApp or Telegram (without XMPP compatibility). Its server is written in Go and is easy to self-host.

It offers all the features expected of a modern messaging app: one-on-one conversations, groups, and channels with unlimited read-only subscribers, audio and video calls, voice messages, file sharing, and synchronization of exchanges across all devices.

On the technical side, Tinode provides web, Android, and iOS clients, bindings (Java, JavaScript, Swift), and gRPC support for many languages, as well as optional storage (SQLite, MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, RethinkDB). Its architecture focuses on scalability, security, and extensibility, making it a solid foundation for a sovereign enterprise messaging solution.

FAQ

You might be wondering…

Does Tinode replace WhatsApp for my business?

Yes, for internal use: private conversations, groups, channels, voice/video calls, and voice messages, but hosted on your servers in France instead of a consumer service.

Are conversations synchronized?

Yes. All exchanges are synchronized in real-time across the web, Android, and iOS devices of each user.

Can I integrate it with my applications?

Yes. Tinode exposes an API and bindings (JavaScript, Java, Swift, gRPC) to connect the messaging to your business tools or chatbots.

Where are the data hosted?

On DINAO's infrastructure in France. Messages, media, and contacts do not leave the territory.

Can I change plans or export my data?

Yes. You can upgrade or downgrade at any time, and your data remains exportable — no proprietary lock-in.
