The story of Anydesk began in 2012 with three technology pioneers who shared a vision: to develop fast and secure remote desktop software that would soon establish itself as one of the market-leading solutions. They put their vision into practice by developing a proprietary codec, DeskRT, that enables virtually latency-free collaboration. Whether the user is on the same floor or on the other side of the world. With the support of a business angel investor, they were able to found AnyDesk Software GmbH in 2014.

To date, Anydesk software has been downloaded over 500 million times and is used by businesses and consumers around the world. Since its founding in 2014, the company has grown from a start-up to a scale-up in an extraordinary way.
