Gitter is an open-source instant messaging and chat room system for developers and users of GitLab and GitHub repositories.[3] Gitter is provided as software-as-a-service, with a free option providing all basic features and the ability to create a single private chat room, and paid subscription options for individuals and organisations, which allows them to create arbitrary numbers of private chat rooms.

Individual chat rooms can be created for individual git repositories on GitHub. Chatroom privacy follows the privacy settings of the associated GitHub repository: thus, a chatroom for a private (i.e. members-only) GitHub repository is also private to those with access to the repository. A graphical badge linking to the chat room can then be placed in the git repository's README file, bringing it to the attention of all users and developers of the project. Users can chat in the chat rooms, or access private chat rooms for repositories they have access to, by logging into Gitter via GitHub[4]

Gitter is similar to Slack. Like Slack, it automatically logs all messages in the cloud.[4][5]

In late 2020, New Vector Limited acquired Gitter from GitLab,[6][7] and announced Gitter's features would eventually be moved to New Vector's flagship product, Element, thereby replacing Gitter entirely.[8] On February 13, 2023, Gitter migrated their service to a custom-branded Matrix instance that uses Element for its web interface.[9]
