Security

Zero-knowledge by design

End-to-end encrypted with the Noise Protocol. Your data stays unreadable, at all times, by anyone.

End-to-end encryption

Noise Protocol with AES-256-GCM. The same crypto that powers WhatsApp and Signal. Encrypted at the source, decrypted only on your device.

Direct P2P when possible

Most connections are direct peer-to-peer. Your screen, files, and keystrokes flow straight between your devices without touching our infrastructure.

Zero-knowledge relay

When a direct connection isn't possible, traffic relays through our TURN servers — but it stays encrypted end-to-end. We literally cannot decrypt it.

Privacy mode

Lock the physical screen while working remotely. Perfect for shared offices and public spaces.
