Four promises, one app. Every panel below is the real interface — not a trial, not a tier, just what installs.
Every machine gets a console — its screens, its cameras, its audio, in tabs. H.264 at native resolution up to 4K when the path is fast, a stubborn MJPEG floor when it isn't. Turn on control and your keyboard and mouse are its keyboard and mouse.
A real shell and a real file browser for every machine you own — no sshd to configure, no port forwarding, no cloud drive in the middle. Open a terminal tab and the far side spawns your actual shell in a real PTY. Browse, preview, rename, fetch.
Sharing is a grant to a person, not a password to a machine. "Alex can receive my screen" — that's the whole grant. It follows Alex to whichever of their devices is handy, it covers exactly one thing, and it revokes with one tap.
They'll see this desktop while the route is live. They can't type, hear, or browse — that would be a different question.

Claim a device and it joins your fleet — a set of machines that trust each other under one key you mint, hold, and can walk away with. A box can't be taken: claiming only works when the device itself was put in claim mode.
Everything above runs on three parts: a graph that knows what you own, a mesh that connects it, and a claim channel that adopts new devices. That's the entire trick.
The app scans the machine it's on — screens, mics, cameras, disks, input — and puts it on the graph. Tap a capability, tap a target, and the route exists. The graph checks what's allowed before anything moves.
Traffic runs directly between machines you own, encrypted end to end. On the same LAN, peers now spot each other over mDNS — no server touched. Beyond it, our reference servers handle the introductions by default, and every one is a setting you can point at your own box instead.
An unclaimed device calls out on a LAN-only mDNS channel and appears in your claim sheet — no IPs, no cloud. Tap Claim and it's in your fleet. Public claiming stays off unless you flip it on, per device.
Claim a machine and it gets consoles — the real, free surfaces you reach it through. Each has a page of its own, showing the interface and every state it can be in.
By design, both are optional, and both are sold separately — the app never needs them.
The app needs a live OS under it. The day a box crashes, freezes, or refuses to boot, the Access line watches its video signal and presses its buttons — so it's still on your graph. From $149.99, once.
The hardwareThe app gives you reach; it doesn't do the work. When you'd rather not, a real CEC technician is one tap away — and when you want the network itself to be yours, the Private Line makes it so.
