¿Who said the wheel shouldn't be reinvented?
The old one wasn't built for the cloud.
Collaboration is Stuck in the 90s
Code lives in the cloud. Data lives in the cloud. But your actual work environment? It's still trapped on your local device.
Screen sharing is passive. One driver, many passengers. It's not collaboration; it's a presentation. You can't fix a bug you can't touch.
Local environments are fragile. You spend hours configuring a workspace that disappears when you close your laptop. Sharing it means explaining setup steps, not sending a link.
Compute is scattered. Your team has 10 powerful laptops but no shared infrastructure to swarm on a problem together.
We asked: What if the operating system itself was multiplayer? What if you could URL-share a full computer like a Google Doc?
Cyqle is the answer.
Why We Built It
We started by building browser automation tools. Useful, but limited. We realized that automating a browser was only solving 10% of the problem.
The real bottleneck was the Operating System.
OSs are designed for one user. That's why screen sharing is so painful—it's a hack on top of a single-player architecture.
We decided to rebuild the desktop stack for p2p collaboration. No 'host' and 'guest'—just equal users working in parallel on the same machine.
Cyqle is the result: A cloud computer that treats collaboration as a primitive, not a feature.
A Full Linux Desktop That Doesn't Disappear
Cyqle is a real Linux environment in the cloud. But instead of one person driving while others watch, everyone works simultaneously. Multiple people typing in parallel, each with their own cursor and window focus.
It's not screen sharing. It's not a VM you SSH into alone. It's a genuinely multiplayer computer that you can spin up in seconds, collaborate on in real-time, then close—or persist and resume from any device.
No more:
- "Can you see my screen?" (they're already there)
- Describing bugs over chat (just invite them in)
- "It works on my machine" (use the same machine)
- Rebuilding demo environments (snapshot and reuse them)
- Writing automation scripts for simple tasks (just record it)
Hard Engineering, Invisible to You
We solved the problems that made real-time cloud desktops impossible for years:
- Zero-latency P2P streaming (no central server lag)
- System-level multi-cursor input injection
- Cryptographically guaranteed ephemeral storage
- Instant provisioning (sub-5-second boot times)
- Browser-based access with native performance
It's complex technology wrapping a simple promise: It just works.
Build for Teams Who:
Computing as a Service
The future isn't better video calls. It's shared context.
- Ephemeral Environments: Spin up, solve the problem, destroy the evidence.
- AI Co-workers: Agents that live in your desktop, not just a chat window.
- Universal Access: Your powerful dev machine is a URL—with native touch gestures on mobile.
- Default Multiplayer: Collaboration is baked into the kernel of how we work.
See It Yourself
We offer a free tier. No credit card. Spin up a session, invite a teammate, and experience what actual real-time collaboration feels like.
