Remote-access daemon

Claxedo vs. Paseo

The closest rival, and a genuine self-host peer — Paseo drives your own machine's agents from anywhere, with real native mobile apps. Claxedo differs on a permissive license, durable coordination, and being a multi-user platform rather than a single-operator daemon.

01 · Side by side

The capabilities that decide it.

Capability Paseo Claxedo
What it is Self-hosted personal remote-access daemon Open-source workspace + framework you self-host
Team / multi-user None — no auth or accounts; a team means everyone runs their own daemon Multi-user — accounts + org scoping (Clerk+Convex profile today)
Harnesses 39 via native CLI + ACP Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, OpenCode, + any CLI via ACP
Interfaces Desktop, web, CLI; in-app terminal + browser Chat UI + first-class terminal
Platforms Desktop (Mac/Win/Linux) + native iOS/Android + web Desktop (Mac/Win/Linux) + web + mobile web
Remote access E2E-encrypted relay (a CF Worker + Durable Object) — optional + self-hostable Relay — reach the same session from any device
Durable work ledger None — heartbeats + cron schedules only WorkGraph — every task, attempt, and approval is a durable record that outlives sessions and restarts
Self-host Yes — one daemon on your box (Docker/VPS) Yes — single node, or Clerk+Convex on your own Cloudflare
License AGPL-3.0 (network copyleft) Open source
Backing Indie, no VC (GitHub Sponsors) Independent · open source
Pricing Free, open source Free during beta; bring your own provider + sandbox

02 · Where Paseo is genuinely better

  • Shipping native iOS + Android apps on both stores.
  • A 39-agent published catalog plus a generic ACP path.
  • Seriously documented end-to-end crypto (NaCl / Curve25519) for the relay.
  • On-device voice, in-app browser, and per-worktree preview URLs.
  • Genuinely no-vendor-lock-in self-host — no Paseo account or login exists.

03 · Where Claxedo differs

  • A multi-user platform your team signs into — Paseo has no accounts at all.
  • Permissive open source vs AGPL-3.0's viral network copyleft (a procurement flag for products).
  • WorkGraph, a durable task ledger — Paseo's only persistence is heartbeats + cron.
  • A TypeScript framework/SDK to build on, not just a finished product.

04 · Which should you pick

you want the best native mobile and the broadest agent catalog to remote-drive your own machine, and AGPL is fine for you.

Choose Claxedo if

you want a multi-user platform your team signs into, durable auditable coordination, and permissive open source.
