All the power. None of the weight.
Agents, builds, apps, and automated browsers run on your server. Your laptop only opens the website.
Built in by defaultKeep using the AI you already want. Remote gives Claude Code, Codex, Kimi, or another agent a private, always-on place to work from any browser.
Remote is the workspace around the AI—not a replacement for it. Choose Claude, Codex, Kimi, or install another agent in the project’s Linux environment.
No heavyweight desktop setup. No single-agent lock-in. No work disappearing when a temporary chat ends.
Agents, builds, apps, and automated browsers run on your server. Your laptop only opens the website.
Built in by defaultRun services, background work, cron jobs, and scheduled routines in a workspace that stays online.
Built in by defaultUse Claude Code, Codex, Kimi Code, or another agent you install—without moving projects or learning a different workspace.
Built in by defaultLocal AI apps can pile a desktop shell, agent processes, containers, language tools, builds, and automated browsers onto one machine. Remote moves that whole environment to one server you can reach from anywhere.
Remote is not competing as a new AI agent. It is the complete private place where Claude, Codex, Kimi, or the agent you choose can do ongoing work.
Comparison reflects built-in product capabilities. OpenClaw can be extended through configuration and third-party components.
Remote does more than answer. It gives your AI somewhere real to work—and gives you every way to see, guide, and share the result.
Remote is not a new agent. Choose your preferred agent, model, reasoning level, and working mode, then see progress live and guide the work.
Every project gets its own isolated Linux workspace, durable files, installable tools, secrets, and enough freedom to run almost anything.
Open the IDE, terminal, files, Git history, application preview, or shared browser beside the conversation whenever you want to step in.
Run Remote on infrastructure you control, invite the people you trust, and decide who can open each project.
Developers will feel at home, but the value is simpler: describe the outcome and let a capable agent use a real computer to make it happen.
Turn loose ideas, notes, and questions into organized plans and useful output.
Make websites, tools, documents, reports, visuals, and working prototypes.
Keep reports, checks, backups, and recurring work moving on a schedule.
Give every project a shared home without sharing your entire server.
Watch progress, inspect the result, open the files, take over the browser, or change direction at any moment.
Common questionsRemote is powerful under the hood. Using it does not have to feel that way.
Yes. The entire Remote application is open source. You can inspect the code, change it, contribute to it, and run it on infrastructure you control—without depending on a proprietary desktop client or a required vendor-owned workspace.
