The TI-Messenger program has taken an important step forward with a newly structured roadmap for the Pro 1.1 and Pro 1.2 releases. The decision to redesign and reschedule these releases reflects both the technical maturity of the project and a clear focus on reducing integration risks while delivering value to users earlier and more reliably.
Why the Roadmap Was Restructured
The initial scope of TI-Messenger Pro 1.1 proved to be highly complex during detailed specification. Several components were strongly interlinked, increasing implementation risks and dependencies.
To address this, the original release was decomposed into two consecutive versions — Pro 1.1 and Pro 1.2.
This modular restructuring serves three main goals:
Risk reduction in integration and testing,
Early delivery of usable, high-value functions,
Independence from uncertain external release schedules.
By separating the releases, the TI-Messenger team ensures stable progress and avoids technical bottlenecks, all while keeping the long-term roadmap intact.
What Each Release Delivers
TI-Messenger Pro 1.1
Pro 1.1 focuses on integration, data consistency, and interoperability.
Key components include:
Integration of Headless and Embedded Clients,
Provision of structured data and consent management,
Implementation of Matrix updates 1.15 / 1.16.
Together, these enable seamless embedding into primary systems and specialist applications.
Healthcare providers benefit from fewer media disruptions, reduced manual transitions, and more stable communication processes — all of which support scalability without additional staffing effort.
TI-Messenger Pro 1.2
Pro 1.2 is centered on secure identities, automation, and efficiency.
It introduces:
Strengthened secure profiles and identity management,
A standardized bot operating environment,
Refactoring of power levels to streamline system governance.
These improvements accelerate information flow across care pathways, reduce waiting and idle times, and help relieve clinical and administrative workloads.
Roadmap Timeline
The TI-Messenger roadmap defines a structured sequence for concept development, specification, and release activities across the Pro 1.1 and 1.2 versions.
The concept phase for TI-Messenger Pro 1.1 is already underway and will be followed by specification work starting at the end of February 2026. The release is planned for the end of May 2026, with test readiness expected in the fourth quarter of 2026.
The concept phase for Pro 1.2 is scheduled to start at the end of May 2026, with subsequent specification work extending into early 2027. Test readiness for Pro 1.2 is planned for the third quarter of 2027.
| Phase / Release | Development Start | Start of Commenting | Release | Test Readiness |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| TI-Messenger Pro 1.1 – Concept “Technical Enablers, Automation & Bots” | Already started | Start of January 2026 | End of February 2026 | – |
| TI-Messenger Pro 1.1 – Specification “Technical Enablers, Automation & Bots” | End of February 2026 | End of April 2026 | End of May 2026 | Q4 2026 |
| TI-Messenger Pro 1.2 – Concept “Automation & Bots” | End of May 2026 | End of September 2026 | End of October 2026 | – |
| TI-Messenger Pro 1.2 – Specification “Automation & Bots” | End of October 2026 | Mid-January 2027 | Mid-February 2027 | Q3 2027 |
Backlog Items and External Dependencies
Two important functionalities remain on hold due to external dependencies:
Voice and Video Communication:
Implementation depends on the completion and approval of the MatrixRTC MSC 4143 specification.
Since the Matrix Foundation has not yet set a final timeline, this feature has been deferred.
Current expectations point to a MatrixRTC release in 2026, after which TI-Messenger can integrate federated voice and video calls.Multi-Tenant Capability:
This functionality has also been moved to the backlog, as compliant, multi-tenant market solutions already exist.
A regulatory assessment is ongoing to determine whether a separate TI-Messenger-specific implementation is required or if existing industry solutions suffice.
A More Sustainable Roadmap
The refined roadmap reflects a pragmatic approach: modular releases, reduced complexity, and coordinated alignment with the broader digital health ecosystem.
By structuring development into manageable, independent phases, the TI-Messenger initiative maintains its momentum while ensuring stability, interoperability, and measurable value for the healthcare sector.
