About Deskmate Live

Deskmate Live gives you a lightweight voice assistant for everyday desktop work with quick voice controls, optional screen context, avatar reactions, and portal access in one compact toolbar. It is meant to feel present when you want help, and quiet when you are focused.
About TermRover
TermRover is a native SSH + Mosh terminal optimized for working with tmux on iPhone and Android. Browser-style tabs, one-tap prefix actions, and scrolling all just work. The tmux prefix, usually Ctrl-b, is awkward on a touchscreen. Scrolling is worse: it usually requires mouse mode and changes to .tmux.conf, with no clear indication whether it is enabled., tapping the terminal should open the keyboard, and sending a screenshot to a coding agent. It immediately made sense for a phone: SSH can drop as you move between networks, while Mosh keeps the terminal working.
