Platform
The connection layer for your AI
Blackroot handles the infrastructure between remote AI clients and the tools running on your machine.
No port forwarding
Blackroot Desktop establishes the connection outward, so you don't need to expose ports on your network.
Runs on your machine
Your tools and MCP runtimes execute locally instead of being moved into Blackroot's cloud.
Authenticated access
Remote clients are authenticated before requests are routed to your device.
Built to reconnect
Blackroot restores connections when networks change, laptops wake up, or local processes restart.
