Helps remote teams and solo knowledge workers arrange desktop apps on a zoomable canvas, share it live and direct up to 10 AI agents, so tasks move faster.

About

Each desktop app opens as a window you can pan and zoom across, and separate workspaces such as work, travel or finances can sit side by side. Teammates appear as colored cursors on the same screen, and a teammate's streamed app can be driven from your machine. AI agents get their own cursors and windows, report back to a lead agent's chat, and are checked against a fresh screenshot before a job is marked done. You can pause all agents, or type a correction while they run.

From the founder

Who it's for

“Teams, founders and builders who juggle many apps and want one shared infinite canvas for apps, collaboration and AI agents.”

Why I built it

“I'm Thomas, co-founder and CTO. I was frustrated with the limits of current operating systems and wanted to expand OS features onto an infinite canvas.”

— Nova Start, founder of Novastart

Who it is for

Remote teams that need to co-edit and drive the same desktop apps together
Individuals who want AI agents to handle parallel parts of a task while they keep control
People who manage separate projects such as work, school, travel or finances in distinct spaces
