About Matrix

Matrix is an open, decentralised communication protocol that provides end-to-end encrypted messaging, voice, and video. Unlike proprietary platforms, Matrix lets organisations run their own servers while still communicating with users on other Matrix servers through federation. The Matrix node allows automation workflows to send messages, manage rooms, invite users, and interact with the Matrix network programmatically.

Organisations that require sovereign communications use Matrix for its encryption, self-hosting capability, and federation model. Automation use cases include posting system alerts and monitoring notifications to Matrix rooms, creating dedicated rooms for projects or incidents, bridging messages between Matrix and other platforms, and building bot-driven workflows that respond to commands in chat.

Osher builds AI agent workflows that interact through Matrix for organisations where data sovereignty and end-to-end encryption are non-negotiable. We connect your internal systems to Matrix rooms so operational notifications, alerts, and AI-generated insights arrive securely in the channels where your team operates. For defence, government, and regulated industries, Matrix provides the communication backbone that proprietary tools cannot match on security and data control.

How it works

We work hand-in-hand with you to implement Matrix

Step 1

Set Up Your Matrix Homeserver or Account

Either deploy your own Matrix homeserver (Synapse or Dendrite) or create an account on an existing Matrix server. For automation, create a dedicated bot user account that your workflows will use to send and receive messages.

Step 2

Generate an Access Token

Log in with your bot user account and generate an access token. This token authenticates your automation workflow with the Matrix server. Store it securely, as it provides full access to the bot account’s capabilities.

Step 3

Configure the Matrix Node

Add the Matrix node to your automation workflow. Enter your homeserver URL and the bot account’s access token. Test the connection to confirm your workflow can communicate with the Matrix server.

Step 4

Create or Join Target Rooms

Identify the Matrix rooms your workflow will interact with. Create new rooms for specific purposes or join existing ones. Note the room IDs or aliases, as you will need them to direct messages to the correct destinations.

Step 5

Build Your Message and Action Logic

Compose the messages your workflow will send, using data from upstream nodes. Add conditional logic to route different types of notifications to different rooms, and format messages with markdown for readability.

Step 6

Test in a Private Room

Create a private test room and run your workflow to verify messages arrive correctly. Check formatting, links, and any media attachments. Once confirmed, update the room targets to your production rooms and activate the workflow.
