Element Development & Integration
Custom extensions, API integrations, and seamless embedding into your system landscape.
Standard software often covers 90% – we close the last gap. We develop Matrix Application Services, connect Element with your tools, and automate workflows.
Our Development Services
From API integration to complete custom solutions – we cover the entire spectrum.
API & Interface Integration
We make your systems talk to each other. Whether REST, GraphQL, or webhooks – we connect software with your CRM, ERP, or identity provider.
- Bidirectional data synchronization
- Third-party system connections
- Custom webhooks & event handlers
- Legacy system integrations
Custom Middleware & Logic
Often data formats from System A don't match System B. We develop middleware that sits in between, transforms data, and controls processes.
- Transformation layer (ETL)
- Data stream validation
- Caching layer for performance
- Microservices architecture
Embeddings & Custom Apps
Want to use software features in your own intranet or customer portal? We embed software headlessly and build custom UIs around it.
- White-label integration
- Custom dashboards (React/Vue)
- UI extension via plugins
- Mobile app customizations
Automation & Bots
Save manual work through intelligent automation. We develop bots and scripts that handle tasks automatically.
- ChatOps & slash commands
- Automated reporting
- Workflow orchestration
- Trigger-based actions
Decentralized Matrix Protocol Development
Element is the client, Matrix is the protocol. As an official Matrix partner, we understand the complexity of decentralized communication and end-to-end encryption.
Application Services (Bridges)
We develop 'Application Services' – special super-user components that tunnel and transform traffic between Matrix and foreign networks (Slack, Teams, Telegram).
State Resolution & Sync
The Matrix protocol is complex (State Resolution). We understand how to keep events consistent in decentralized rooms and correctly implement end-to-end encryption (E2EE).
Widgets & Bot SDKs
Element allows embedding web apps as widgets directly in the room. We build React apps that run in the Matrix client and use context data from the chat room.
Concrete Use Cases
How we implement Element development in practice.
Secure Multi-Messenger Bridge
Internal communication runs on Element, partners use MS Teams or Slack.
A dedicated Matrix Application Service mirrors rooms bidirectionally. Your data stays on your server, communication flows seamlessly to the partner.
IoT Device Control in Chat
Technicians must control machines on-site while documenting simultaneously.
A custom widget in Element shows live machine data. Control commands are sent signed via the Matrix network to the IoT device (E2EE).
Healthcare Secure Messenger
Patient data must be exchanged GDPR-compliant, but the UX must be simple.
We develop a whitelabel client (Element fork) and backend logic ensuring users can only communicate with verified doctors (Closed Federation).
Development with Foresight
Update-safe, scalable, and secure – why you should trust us with your development.
Update-safe (No Core Hacking)
We don't modify the open-source software's source code. Instead, we use official APIs and plugin architectures. Your installation remains updatable and maintainable.
Full-Stack Expertise
We understand not just the code, but the infrastructure beneath it. Our developers know how queries affect database performance and how to build scalable APIs.
Modern Tech Stack
We use modern, type-safe technologies: React, TypeScript, Node.js, Python, Go. Plus PostgreSQL, Redis, and Docker/Kubernetes for infrastructure.
Security by Design
Every line of code is written with security in mind. Input sanitization, secure authentication (OAuth2/OIDC), and compliance with data protection regulations are standard.
Our Tech Stack
How We Work
From requirements to go-live – transparent and structured.
Analysis
We review API documentation, analyze your requirements, and identify optimal integration points.
Architecture
We design the solution: middleware, plugin, or script. Data flows, interfaces, and security concept are defined.
Development
Agile implementation with code reviews, automated tests, and continuous coordination. You see progress in real-time.
Deployment
Integration into your CI/CD pipeline or hosting on our infrastructure. Documentation and training included.
