Built for serious remote work

Power without the tradeoffs

Everything you’d expect from a modern remote desktop, plus the privacy guarantees you’d expect from your own machine.

  • End-to-end encryption

    Every keystroke, click, and pixel is wrapped in modern crypto. We never see your session — and neither does anyone else.

  • Blazing low latency

    Sub-frame input response with smart codec switching. Feels native on a fiber line, usable on hotel Wi-Fi.

  • Truly cross-platform

    Connect from Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, or Android — to any of them. One ID. Same shortcuts everywhere.

  • Drag-and-drop file transfer

    Send folders or single files across the session. Resumable transfers, integrity-verified, no third-party hop.

  • Multi-monitor aware

    Stream every display or pick one. Mirror, switch, or follow the active screen — at the host’s real resolution.

  • Unattended access

    Wake, reboot, and reconnect to remote machines on your own schedule. Per-device keys, audit log included.

    Idris Okafor

    Lead Security Engineer, Helix Labs

  • “My team is fully remote across four time zones. VDesk handles 4K screens, color profiles, and audio without complaint. It just disappears.”
