Your own secure remote desktop.

The problem

Remote desktop solutions typically route all traffic through a central server: your screen pixels, keyboard input, everything passes through infrastructure you don't control. Even open-source options default to relay servers when a direct connection fails. You're trusting a third party with unencrypted video of your entire screen and every keystroke.

What Remoto does

Remoto establishes a direct peer-to-peer connection between two machines using WebRTC. When direct connection succeeds — which is most of the time — pixels and input never leave the two devices. For the remainder of cases where NAT traversal fails, Remoto falls back to relay, but that relay is just a dumb data tunnel; the connection is encrypted end-to-end and the Cloudflare Worker mediating the initial WebRTC handshake never sees the encrypted traffic.

What makes it different

• Direct, encrypted WebRTC. Pixels and input flow peer-to-peer, not through a third-party server. The signaling worker only brokers the initial handshake.
• Signed, notarized builds. Both the macOS DMG and Windows installer are cryptographically signed and notarized, verified on every launch.
• Auto-update pipeline. Built-in updater checks for releases and applies them transparently. Never worry about stale versions.
• Google OAuth single sign-on. Identity and trust are handled through your Google account — no local password management.
• Electron + React foundation. Familiar web-first architecture, shared design tokens with Commander for consistent operator experience.
