Open Source Managed Communication
Per-seat pricing is a bad deal
We started TalkStaq because SaaS communication tools charge per user, per agent, per subscriber, per minute — and it adds up fast. A 50-person company using per-seat communication tools can easily spend $1,500/month on communication alone. We think that's broken.

What we believe
Transparency
Every tool we host is open source. You can audit the code, export your data, and leave anytime. No proprietary lock-in, no bait-and-switch licensing changes.
Data sovereignty
Team messages, customer conversations, support tickets, call recordings — all of it stays on dedicated infrastructure with full tenant isolation. DPA available on request.
Simplicity
Five communication tools means five sets of updates, backups, SSL certs, and monitoring. We consolidate all of that into one managed service so you don't need an ops person just to keep the lights on.
Fair pricing
Per-seat pricing adds up fast. At 100 people, messaging alone can cost $725/month. Add video, support, and email tools and you're well past $1,500. We charge flat monthly rates starting at $20–30/tool. Hire someone without doing billing math first.
