Hey Hunters 👋 We're super excited to introduce HelpWire to the Product Hunt community—our solution for a simple yet efficient remote support service. 🚨Spoiler alert: it’s not just simple—it’s free! 🚨 While giants like TeamViewer and GoTo are well-known, they come bundled with complexities that can impede quick and intuitive remote connections. Recognizing the need for timely support, we aimed to create a tool that any organization can use for instant remote assistance. Our team, with extensive knowledge in remote device access, developed HelpWire—a remote desktop service designed for businesses and individual professionals for on-the-spot support. Here's how remote connections with HelpWire work: 1️⃣ Send a remote connection URL to your client. 2️⃣ They open it and download the client app. 3️⃣ You request remote access and connect to their computer. Yes, it’s really that simple! 🔥 With this initial launch, enjoy full access to all HelpWire features without any limitations! 🔥 ✅ Quick session initiation via a link. ✅ Remote control of multiple workstations for the same client. ✅ Cross-platform support between Windows and Mac, and vice versa. ✅ Multi-monitor view. ✅ Easy copy-paste file transfer. ✅ Built-in chat. ✅ Web account for seamless client management. As we continue to develop HelpWire, adding more features, our focus remains the same—to maintain its simplicity and accessibility. We're eager to answer your questions and can’t wait to hear your thoughts and feedback. Thanks for checking out HelpWire! 🚀 • The HelpWire Team

I write all of my code on Fedora and host everything on Debian(lol). How can I get this to work with those distros?
Yaroslav Kladko
@kingromstar Excellent question! Currently, HelpWire supports Windows and macOS. However, we plan to extend support to various Linux distributions in future updates.
Andres Olarte
Good luck in the launch, the tool looks amazing!

Looks promising! Is there a feature for session recording, so we can review remote support sessions later for training or quality assurance?
Yaroslav Kladko
@yana_berezynets "Thank you for your interest! Currently, session recording isn't available, as our focus has been on optimizing the remote connection experience. However, this feature is definitely on our roadmap, so stay tuned for future updates!
Yuliko
Really excited about HelpWire! Does it also support file transfers between the remote and local computers during a session?
Yaroslav Kladko
@yuliko Absolutely, it does! With HelpWire, a technician can easily transfer files to and from the client's computer using a simple copy-paste action.
Spencer Krit
Really interested in HelpWire. Does it allow for administrative privileges during remote sessions, like installing software or changing system settings?
Yaroslav Kladko
@spencer_krit Thank you for your interest in HelpWire! Indeed, our platform allows you to perform administrative tasks during remote sessions, such as installing software or changing system settings. Additionally, on Windows, technicians have the option to elevate their rights to admin for executing administrative actions.
Ed Winger
Looks amazing! Can you clarify if it allows multiple simultaneous remote sessions for team collaborations?
Yaroslav Kladko
@ed_winger Thank you for your interest! At the moment, HelpWire supports only one technician per remote session. We're constantly working to improve, so keep an eye out for future updates that may include multiple simultaneous sessions.
Richard Oakley
Good job on the launch! Is there a limit on the number of clients I can manage through the web account? Would definitely prefer the "unlimited" option ;)
Yaroslav Kladko
@rickey_oak Unlimited indeed! 🙂 You can add and manage as many clients as you need with our web account. No limits!
Keith Petri
Can the remote control feature be used for technical support across different networks, like home and office?
Yaroslav Kladko
@keithepetri Definitely! HelpWire is designed to work seamlessly across different networks, including home and office settings. This is made possible by our secure network of proxy servers, which facilitate connections between computers in various networks.
Helga York
Just explored HelpWire and I must say - the link-based session initiation is incredibly smooth. 👌 Great alternative to the more complex tools out there.
Yaroslav Kladko
@helga_york2 Thank you! Since the beginning of our development process, we've focused on perfecting the concept of link-based session initiation. Our goal was to make remote connections as simple as possible without compromising security.

Alex Orlovsky
Super impressed with HelpWire! Quick question: does it support voice chat during remote sessions, or should I keep my carrier pigeon ready for backup communication? 🕊️
Yaroslav Kladko
@orlovsky Carrier pigeons do have their charm! 😄 As of now, HelpWire offers real-time text chat. We're definitely looking forward to expanding our communication functionalities, so stay tuned for more updates!
