Taktrix
Secure, decentralized chat for ATAK, powered by Matrix
Taktrix is a Matrix-powered, end-to-end-encrypted chat plugin for ATAK. It brings private, decentralized messaging into the field tools your team relies on. Taktrix is published by Caskfive.
End-to-end encrypted
Messages are encrypted on your device and only readable by their intended recipients. Caskfive never has access to your message content.
Decentralized by design
Built on the open Matrix protocol, so there is no single central server that owns your conversations. Connect through the homeserver you trust.
Native ATAK plugin
Taktrix runs inside ATAK, bringing secure chat into the situational awareness tools your team already uses.
Standards-based sign in
Log in to Matrix with OpenID. Your credentials stay with your Matrix homeserver, and Taktrix never sees your password.
How sign in works
Taktrix signs you in to your Matrix account using OpenID. When you connect, your Matrix homeserver (for example, matrix.org) shows a consent screen so you can review and approve access. Authentication is handled entirely by your homeserver, so your password is never shared with Taktrix or Caskfive.
Once connected, your messages are protected with end-to-end encryption. Caskfive does not collect, store, or have any way to read your message content.
