Remote Desk

Audio that follows your seat

Sit down and you're in the call. Stand up and you're out.

Every room on the floor is its own call. Take a seat and you are in it, muted until you choose to talk. Everyone in the room is heard equally, and nobody outside it hears a thing.

In the room

One room, one call, everyone heard equally

A room works like a meeting you can see into. Everyone seated in it is in the same call and hears everyone else at the same volume, the way a good video call sounds. Where you sit inside the room makes no difference.

  • Every room forms its own audio and video call
  • Flat audio: no one is quieter for sitting further away
  • Screen share goes to the people in your room

Walking in

You arrive muted, and you decide when to talk

Taking a seat never switches your microphone or camera on. You walk in muted, get your bearings, and unmute when you have something to say. When you stand up and leave, your camera turns off with you, so no empty tile lingers behind.

  • Mic and camera off when you enter, every time
  • Your camera choice is remembered per room, and never starts on its own
  • Walking out ends your part in the call, no hang-up button

Outside the room

Outside the room, you hear nothing

The open floor between rooms is quiet: standing there puts you in no call at all. A private room asks you to knock, and while you wait at its door you hear nothing from inside until someone lets you in.

  • The open floor and reception spots carry no audio
  • Knock on a private room; nobody inside is overheard
  • Access rules are checked by the server on every seat you take

Virtual Office

Seats, rooms, and real presence

A workspace your team actually inhabits: avatars in seats, rooms you walk into, and presence you can read at a glance. The seat you take decides the channel you are in, so there is no join link anywhere.

Online Meeting

HD video, no join link

Video built into the floor, carried by a self-hostable LiveKit SFU. Sit in a room and you are in its call. No links, no lobbies, no waiting for the host.

Screen Share

A theatre view for demos

Share your screen with the room you are in, and only with that room. A large view puts the content first, so the demo is readable for everyone seated.

Interactive 3D Office

A floor you move through

Three views of the same floor: a 3D office you move through, a fast top-down 2D view for any machine, and a Web view of room cards. Switch whenever you like.

FAQ

Questions about room audio

Something else on your mind? Write to hello@remotedesk.space.

Does Remote Desk have proximity or spatial audio?

No, not any more. Earlier versions faded voices with distance. Today every room is one call in which everyone is heard equally, which is simpler to understand and easier to hear. Where you sit decides which call you are in, not how loud people sound.

Will people hear me as soon as I sit down?

No. Everyone enters a room with the microphone and camera off. Nothing is transmitted until you turn your mic or camera on yourself.

Can someone outside a room listen in?

No. The open floor and the reception spots outside rooms are in no call. A visitor knocking on a private room hears nothing until someone inside lets them in, and the server checks room access for every seat.

How do I have a private conversation?

Use a room that is private or shared only with the right people, or start a direct one-to-one call with them.

Can the audio run on our own servers?

Yes. Media runs through a LiveKit server, which you can self-host along with the rest of Remote Desk.

Take a seat and start talking

Build a floor, sit down in a room, and unmute when you are ready. Room audio is on every plan.
