# Relaya - Community chat for creators and platforms

> Embed a fully moderated, real-time chat box on any website or app in minutes.
> No backend required.

Relaya is a real-time community chat product for creators and platforms. Stop
scattering your audience across Discord or WhatsApp groups you don't control.
Relaya chat lives on your domain, with your branding, under your rules - keeping
fans engaged where you want them.

You aren't limited to one integration path: copy-paste an iframe, drop the React
SDK into a web app, or ship an App Store-compliant React Native mobile app. One
subscription covers every integration path.

## Why Relaya

- **Known members, zero friction.** Real members, not anonymous guests - everyone
  has a verified email identity. Bans stick, regulars recognize each other, and
  your audience is yours to keep. Sign-in is effortless: a one-time code to their
  inbox, no password needed. Sessions last 33 days.
- **Moderation built in, not bolted on.** Report, ban, and delete tools on every
  plan, from day one. No upgrade required for moderation. Server-side enforcement
  only - no client-side trust shortcuts.
- **From iframe to SDK. One product.** Paste an iframe onto a Wix site, drop
  `@relaya-chat/react` into a Next.js app, or ship a React Native mobile app.
  One subscription, every integration path.
- **Your data stays yours.** Configurable message archive up to 180 days, with
  full chat history export to CSV.

## Features

- **Known members, zero friction** - Verified email identity via one-time codes
  (OTP). No passwords. 33-day sessions. Bans stick across visits.
- **Moderation built in** - Report, ban, and delete tools on every plan.
  Server-side enforcement, no client-side trust shortcuts.
- **From iframe to SDK** - iframe embed, `@relaya-chat/react` for web, and
  `@relaya-chat/react-native` for App Store-compliant mobile chat.
  Example: `<RelayaChat serverUrl="..." spaceSlug="my-space" />`
- **Custom branding** - Match your site's colors with the visual theme editor.
  The "Powered by Relaya" badge is present on the Embed plan and removed on the
  Community and Developer plans.
- **Custom stickers** - Upload your own sticker sets. Up to 20 on Embed, 100 on
  Community, unlimited on Developer.
- **Real-time, always** - WebSocket-based. Messages appear instantly.
  Auto-reconnects on network drops.
- **Country and IP controls** - Country allowlist/blocklist and IP ban tools for
  spaces with compliance needs or persistent bad actors.
- **Chat history and export** - Message archive up to 180 days. Export full chat
  history as CSV.
- **React Native SDK** - Ship a mobile app with App Store-compliant chat. Use the
  drop-in `<RelayaChat>` component or compose with individual hooks
  (`import { useRelayaChat } from '@relaya-chat/react';`).
