About HostAnywhere

HostAnywhere is the secure encrypted access layer for your devices and services. Connect your iPhone, iPad, Mac, Windows PC, Linux server, and Android devices into a private, encrypted network. Reach anything on your home or office network from anywhere, share services with teammates, back up what matters to hardware you control, and run private AI on your own machines. FEATURES • Secure Access from Anywhere — reach your private services as if you were on the local network, with end-to-end encryption between your own devices. • Access Control — define who reaches what with per-device firewall rules. Add posture conditions from CrowdStrike Falcon or Microsoft Intune for full Zero Trust enforcement. • Encrypted Backups — Photos, Contacts, Calendars, and Health data backed up to a Storage Server you own. End-to-end encryption with keys derived on your device. • Private AI — turn a Mac, PC, or Linux box you own into an AI server running open models with a ChatGPT-style web chat, reachable from your other devices. The AI Gateway gives your apps one OpenAI-compatible endpoint that tries your own hardware first and fails over to cloud providers, with built-in guardrails, spend limits, and provider keys kept off your devices. • Connect On-Demand — secure access activates automatically when you reach for a private service, then steps aside when you don't need it. • Cross-Platform — your devices work together across iPhone, iPad, Mac, Windows, Linux, and Android, all managed from a single dashboard. • Fast Reconnect — switch between Wi-Fi, cellular, and back without dropping your session. PRIVACY AND SECURITY HostAnywhere is built on modern, audited cryptography. Your traffic is encrypted between your own devices; we never see it. Backups use keys derived on your device — only you can read your data. AI prompts sent to your own AI server never leave hardware you control. BUILT FOR • Developers reaching their home Mac mini, dev servers, and lab gear from anywhere. • Small teams connecting offices and remote workers without corporate VPN appliances. • Anyone tired of cloud subscriptions backing up photos to someone else's servers. • Anyone who wants AI on their own hardware instead of someone else's cloud. Free for personal use. Team plans available for organizations. Learn more at hostanywhere.io
