Deploy Coral Talk in one click installation.
Open-source commenting platform from Vox Media that reimagines on-site discussion and moderation for newsrooms.
What you can build with Coral Talk
Coral is the open-source commenting platform built by Vox Media to power healthier on-site discussions for news organizations, publishers, and content creators. It replaces third-party comment widgets with a self-hosted system designed around the realities of running a community: heavy moderation workloads, hostile actors, and the need to keep audience data inside your own infrastructure.
Trusted by more than 500 newsrooms in 28 countries, including The Washington Post and The Financial Times, Coral combines a fast, accessible reader experience with a moderation toolset purpose-built for editorial teams. Self-hosting on your own VPS keeps reader identities, comment history, and engagement signals under your full control rather than a third-party SaaS.
Key features of Coral Talk
Moderation toolkit
Filter and approve comments at scale with reaction queues, banned-word lists, suspect-word flagging, and per-story moderation settings designed for editorial teams.
Q&A and live chat
Switch a story into Q&A or live chat mode to host hosted-expert sessions, breaking-news discussions, or structured reader interviews.
Author engagement
Featured comments, reporter badges, and inline staff replies let journalists surface the best contributions and respond to readers directly inside the thread.
Single sign-on
Plug Coral into your existing identity layer with JWT-based SSO, OAuth providers, or local accounts so readers reuse their site login.
Privacy and data ownership
Comments, profiles, and moderation history stay on your VPS in MongoDB, with GDPR-friendly export and deletion tooling built in.
Embeddable on any CMS
A lightweight embed script drops Coral into WordPress, Ghost, Drupal, or custom stacks without locking your site into a single CMS.

I'm incredibly happy with Hostinger's VPS hosting! Their uptime is consistently top-notch, keeping my site running smoothly. Whenever I've needed help, their technical support team has been quick, knowledgeable, and genuinely helpful.
Everything is smooth and great with Hostinger, the AI chat bot + human chat, if AI can't resolve your question. Oh and them VPS is just fire, no ups and downs. Thank you dev team and everyone else involved. Keep it up 🚀
Finally a VPS hosting company that does it right! Well-priced. Excellent portal that respects their users' time. Seamless backups. Good support. Reliable. Feels rock-solid.
I reached out to Hostinger support after losing access to my self-hosted n8n instance, and I couldn’t be more impressed. Hostinger Agent and Mohammad from the support team were incredibly patient and thorough.
Many thanks to Carla for helping me with this N8N upgrade on my Hostinger VPS. Professional and knowledgeable, thank you again Carla.
Hostinger VPS is absolutely outstanding. It just always works. It is always fast and stable. Never down, never crashes.
The company is doing well, I am very happy with the specific services I use through them. Not as expensive as some places with really great VPS set ups and price plans.
