Build real-time chat messaging in less time·getstream.io

Stream Chat is an API and SDK platform for adding real-time, in-app chat messaging to web and mobile applications, supporting direct, group, threaded, and livestream chat with reactions, presence, typing indicators, push notifications, and moderation hooks. It runs on Stream's global edge network with a 99.999% uptime SLA and scales to 5 million concurrent connections per channel. Client and server SDKs are provided for multiple frameworks and languages, along with pre-built, customizable UI components so developers can integrate chat in days rather than building it in-house.
