About Flute
Built by developers who were tired of KVM switches and unreliable software.
The Story
Like many developers, we work with multiple computers daily. A Windows workstation for heavy lifting, a MacBook for mobile work, maybe a Linux box for specific tasks. The problem? Switching between them was always a hassle.
KVM switches are expensive, clunky, and require running cables everywhere. Software solutions existed, but they were either unreliable, had confusing setup processes, or felt like they were designed in 2005.
So we built Flute. Our goal was simple: make multi-computer control feel as natural as using a single machine. The 3D configurator came from a realization that most software forces you to think abstractly about your setup when you already know exactly how your desk looks.
The plugin architecture? We believe software should do one thing well, but also be extensible. The core sharing functionality is rock solid because it's all we focused on. Everything else—clipboard sync, file transfer, future features—are plugins that can be added without bloating the core.
What We Believe
Reliability First
Software that controls your input devices must be rock solid. We obsess over edge cases so you don't have to think about them.
Privacy Matters
Your keystrokes are sensitive. All communication is encrypted, and we never see or store your data. Ever.
Simple > Complex
The best software disappears into your workflow. Flute should feel invisible—it just works.
Help Build the Future of Multi-Device Control
We're launching a GoFundMe campaign to bring Flute to life. Your support will help us build:
