PartnerReach your desktop from anywhere

A self-contained remote desktop host. Install one signed package and your machine becomes reachable — no account required to start.

What is Partner?

Partner turns a desktop machine into a remote-desktop host you can reach from anywhere, in the style of TeamViewer or AnyDesk. You install the Partner package on the computer you want to reach (the host), and from then on it registers itself with the Partner service and stays reachable through an outbound connection — no inbound firewall ports to open.

There are two ways to connect:

  • Accountless (instant). Right after installation the host shows a stable machine ID and a short-lived connection code. Share the code with whoever needs to connect, and they can reach the machine — no sign-up needed.
  • With an account (managed). Sign in (Partner uses a standard hosted login), then claim your machines into your account, give them friendly names, and manage them from one device list.

Supported operating systems

OSInstallerNotes
Linux.deb (Debian/Ubuntu), .rpm (Fedora/RHEL), or portable AppImageInstalls a systemd service. The AppImage is a portable single-file alternative.
Windowssigned .msiInstalls and registers a Windows service that starts automatically.
macOSsigned + notarized .pkgInstalls a launchd system daemon.

Each installer is self-contained: the Partner binary is statically built, so there are no missing-DLL or missing-library errors and nothing else to download.

What this guide covers

This is the end-user guide: installing Partner, getting connected for the first time, claiming and renaming your devices, and fixing common problems. It does not cover running or configuring the Partner backend service — that is a separate operator topic.
