Workbench

Workbench is basically VNC rebuilt for the AI agent era — and honestly, that's long overdue. Built by the Astropad team (ex-Apple engineers who've been refining their streaming tech for a decade), it solves a real problem that's only getting bigger: running AI agents on Mac minis you can't physically see, with existing remote desktop tools that weren't designed for that. The voice dictation and mobile-first monitoring are smart touches that tell me they actually talked to developers running Claude Code and OpenClaw instead of guessing. At 126 users and 15 days old, it's early, but the traction signal is there — and if the unlimited plan lands right, this could be a sleeper hit for the headless Mac crowd.
