Remote workstation window streaming

Develop low-latency screen sharing for individual application windows across Apple devices. Target developers and designers who multitask across ecosystems.

Why now

Apple's Continuity lacks per-window control, creating demand for more surgical screen management tools.

Who for
Cross-device power users
Business model
Paid macOS app
Effort
A few months

Professionals waste time rearranging workspaces when switching between Mac and iPad workflows.

Build a utility that lets users pin specific app windows to secondary devices with keyboard/mouse passthrough.

Freelancers and tech workers would pay a one-time fee for seamless window management.

MVP could support just Safari and Xcode windows initially.

Risk is Apple eventually building this natively.
