Work from home with the power of your workstation
Your CAD and BIM software needs the powerful computer at the office, not your laptop. With RemoteBite you connect to your workstation from home and use it as if you were sitting at it: models open and compute there, and you get the picture.
Your workstation, from anywhere
Low-latency picture
The screen is sent as hardware-encoded H.264 or HEVC video, with low latency when the connection is direct.
Multiple screens
If your workstation has several monitors, switch between them with the 1, 2, 3 buttons in the session toolbar.
The view you prefer
Fit the picture to the window, see it at actual size, pixel by pixel, or resize the window to the remote screen.
Drawings back and forth
Drag up to 100 files at once and bring back the ones you need. Up to 2 GB per file on a direct connection.
Power it on remotely
Left it off? With Wake-on-LAN you turn it on from your list, as long as another computer in your account is on at the office.
Nobody needs to accept
Your workstation accepts your connections by itself. On Windows you get in even if it's locked or nobody has signed in.
How to work from home on your office computer

Connect from your laptop
From a Mac, Windows or Linux, pick your workstation in the list and the view you prefer.
The power is at the office, not in your laptop
A Revit model or a large AutoCAD drawing needs a graphics card, memory and a processor that a regular laptop doesn't have. With RemoteBite, the software keeps running on the workstation at the office, and your laptop just shows the picture and sends the mouse and keyboard.
On Windows, the remote resolution adapts to the size of your window, and the text clipboard works both ways. Project files stay at the office: you only bring over the ones you need.
For the whole firm
With the Team and Business plans you invite each person by email. Everyone has their own computers in their list and admins see them all. You pay a flat price based on simultaneous connections shared by the whole firm: not per person or per computer.
Every session is end-to-end encrypted, with no ports to open on the office router, and the web dashboard keeps a history: who connected, to which computer and when.
Frequently asked questions
Can I use AutoCAD, Revit or Archicad remotely?
Yes. You control the office computer, so you use any program installed on it just as it is. You don't need to install it on your laptop.
Do I need a powerful laptop?
It doesn't need the power of your workstation: the model opens, computes and renders on the office computer, and the laptop shows the picture. It works from Mac, Windows or Linux.
Do I see all my screens at once?
No: you see one screen at a time and switch between them with the 1, 2, 3 buttons in the session toolbar.
Can I transfer large drawings and files?
Yes. Drag up to 100 files at once, up to 2 GB each on a direct connection, and bring back the ones you need from the other computer.
Can I connect from a Mac to a Windows PC?
Yes, and in any combination of Mac, Windows and Linux. For Ctrl+Alt+Del there's a button in the session toolbar.
Do I need a VPN to reach my office computer?
No. RemoteBite works behind the office router and firewall without opening ports, and encrypts every session end to end.
