What is Roomler?

Roomler is a browser-based remote desktop and a private WireGuard-style mesh network on one self-hostable agent, with team chat and video included.

Get started

Remote desktop

Open any enrolled machine as a live screen in a browser tab — hardware-encoded, end-to-end encrypted and consent-gated, with no viewer to install.

Remote desktop

Your first remote session

Open a machine's screen, switch monitors, control quality, send keyboard shortcuts, and read the connection indicator that tells you how you are connected.

Remote desktop

Unattended access

Reach your own servers and workstations without anyone approving at the far end — including at the Windows lock screen and before any user logs in.

Remote desktop

Consent

Who gets asked before a remote session starts, which surface the prompt appears on, and what happens when nobody is there to answer.

Remote desktop

Codecs and performance

Which video codecs and hardware encoders Roomler uses on Windows, macOS and Linux — and what to change when a remote session feels slow.

Remote desktop

Files and clipboard

Copy text between your machine and a remote one, and transfer files in both directions over the same encrypted peer-to-peer session.

Remote desktop

Per-OS permissions

What Windows, macOS and Linux each require before screen capture and input injection work — and why a missing grant usually produces silence, not an error.

Remote desktop

Black screen or wallpaper only

The session connects and shows nothing — almost always a capture permission or a display-session problem, and almost never a network one.
