Nextcloud Hub is an open source content collaboration platform that combines file sync and share, video calls and chat, calendar and mail, real-time document editing, a private AI assistant, and workflow automation into a single digital workspace. It can be self-hosted, giving organizations control over where their data lives instead of relying on third-party cloud providers. An Enterprise edition adds hardened, supported deployments with additional apps, compliance tooling, and dedicated support for large-scale organizations.
