TeamSpeak

Voice chat and messaging software for gaming groups, communities and teams, with self-hosted or hosted servers.

About TeamSpeak

TeamSpeak is a voice communication application for gaming groups, online communities and teams. Users connect to a TeamSpeak server to talk in channels, send messages and share their screen.

You can run your own server on your own hardware for control over settings, permissions and privacy. If you cannot self-host, the publisher offers an official hosted option called TS Official Communities. A TeamSpeak SDK is also available for businesses that want to build voice into their own product or run a private network.

The page describes encrypted voice and chat, noise suppression, echo cancellation, and a hierarchical permission system for deciding who can talk, join channels, manage files or share screens. The TeamSpeak 6 client supports custom themes and fonts, and mobile apps are available for Android and iOS.

  • Voice channels with adjustable audio codec selection
  • Group chat, direct messages and file sharing
  • Screen sharing (4K at 60fps shown as beta in TeamSpeak 6)
  • Server groups, permissions, and ban and kick management
