RemoteX

RemoteX is a local-first AI workspace for infrastructure operations. Connect SSH Servers, Kubernetes clusters, and Databases, then interact with them in plain English. Ask: • "why is production slow?" • "show failing pods" • "what changed recently?" • "explain this Postgres query" • "check disk usage across all servers" RemoteX can inspect infrastructure, read logs, query databases, analyze files, and propose actions — while keeping you in control through approval-based execution and Face ID protection. There is no RemoteX backend between you and your infrastructure. Conversations, servers, and chat history sync end-to-end encrypted across your iPhone, iPad, and Mac through your own iCloud. Apple sees nothing but a blob — only your devices hold the key. WHAT YOU CAN CONNECT • SSH servers • Kubernetes clusters via kubeconfig • PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite, and Redis • Private infrastructure through SSH bastions/tunnels WHAT IT DOES • Diagnose infrastructure in plain English • Chat with multiple servers and environments at once • Read pod logs and inspect Kubernetes resources • Run read-only database queries with safety limits • Explain SQL queries and query plans • Browse and manage remote files • Attach PDFs, spreadsheets, logs, code, JSON, YAML, and documents directly into AI chat • Generate summaries and operational insights instead of walls of terminal output • One-tap operational recipes and reusable playbooks • Background monitoring with notifications • Full-text conversation search • Voice input support • Multiple chats per environment or project • Continue conversations across iPhone, iPad, and Mac — pick up on your phone what you started on your Mac SAFETY & CONTROL • Every state-changing action requires approval • Face ID / Touch ID protection for sensitive operations • Clear target routing when actions go through bastion hosts • SSH host-key pinning with algorithm validation • Read-only query protections for databases • Row caps and timeout limits for AI-generated queries ACROSS YOUR DEVICES • End-to-end encrypted sync between iPhone, iPad, and Mac via your own iCloud • A passphrase you set is the key — Apple and RemoteX cannot decrypt your data • No central server, no account — sync runs entirely between your devices • Open a chat on iPhone, continue on Mac; add a server on Mac, see it on iPhone LOCAL-FIRST SECURITY • SSH credentials, API keys, kubeconfigs, and database credentials stay on your device • No RemoteX-managed infrastructure proxy • Optional iCloud sync is end-to-end encrypted with a passphrase only you know — your data is unreadable to Apple, RemoteX, and anyone in between • Bring your own AI provider: • Anthropic • OpenAI • Google Gemini • Commands and infrastructure context are sent directly to the AI provider you choose • Optional crash reporting via Sentry (disabled by default) BUILT FOR • DevOps engineers • Platform teams • Solo founders running infrastructure • SREs and on-call engineers • Developers managing production systems PRO FEATURES RemoteX is free for one server. Upgrade for: • Unlimited infrastructure connections • Background monitoring and alerts • Extended monitoring history • Custom playbooks and recipes • Advanced search REQUIREMENTS • SSH access to your infrastructure • API key from Anthropic, OpenAI, or Google AI Studio • iPhone with Face ID or Touch ID Terms of Use: https://remotex.dev/terms Privacy Policy: https://remotex.dev/privacy
