Remote desktop with better workflow tools

Build a Chrome extension that adds productivity features to remote desktop sessions. Target developers and IT support who need better window management and shortcuts.

Why now

Existing remote desktop tools lack workflow optimizations, as shown by Chrome Remote Desktop's basic feature set despite millions of users.

Remote work requires efficient screen sharing, but most tools are stuck in 2010 with clunky interfaces.

Add tiling window management, quick application switching, and session templates to Chrome's remote desktop protocol.

IT departments and remote teams would pay monthly for features that save hours in support calls.

Start with just window snapping and a universal clipboard between local/remote machines.

Risk: Chrome's API limitations might prevent deep integration with remote sessions.
