The Opportunity

Problem

High latency in government-approved remote desktop solutions severely hampers productivity for distributed policy teams racing to complete time-sensitive reports.

Solution

ReportRelay provides a browser-based workspace mimicking local desktops for policy drafting, with instant multi-user edits and version sync. Eliminate latency by ditching RDP for cloud-native canvases compliant with gov standards. Teams race through time-sensitive reports with live cursors and conflict-free merging.

Target Audience

Distributed policy teams in government or regulated organizations working on time-sensitive reports

Differentiator

Canvas-style collab with desktop-like tools, zero setup for 10x faster team alignment
