Share one keyboard
across every machine.
ShiftWire is cross-platform mouse & keyboard sharing. Move the pointer past a display edge to hand control to the next computer — with physical-size aware handoff and clipboard sync.
Windows now · macOS & Linux coming soon · one license, every machine you own
Everything a multi-machine desk needs.
Arrange machines like monitors, share a clipboard, and lock the pointer when you need to stay put.
Multi-monitor layouts
Side-by-side, L-shapes, or any custom arrangement. Drag machines in the GUI; edges snap.
Physical-size handoff
Edge transitions use diagonal inches or exact mm — a 24″ and 15″ 1080p don’t map 1:1.
Clipboard sharing
Text & image clipboard is polled and broadcast so copy/snip on one machine pastes on another.
Transition lock
Toggle edge handoff with Scroll Lock or the system-tray menu.
Shared-secret handshake
Peers present a shared secret on connect. Mismatches are rejected with a constant-time compare.
Cross-platform
Windows available now. macOS and Linux builds are coming soon. One server owns the keyboard/mouse; the rest are clients.
Handoff that respects real inches, not just pixels.
A 24″ 1080p and a 15″ 1080p are not the same physical width. ShiftWire scales edge transitions by diagonal inches (or exact mm) so the pointer lands where your hand expects.
- Set diagonal inches or exact mm per display
- Proportional edge mapping across machines
- Visual layout arranger with snap presets
Pay once. Use it for as long as you run it.
