KVM over IP · Flagship 01 · ships Q4 2026
Warp through
space and time.
WarpKVM is hardware-grade KVM over IP. Plug it into any machine and that machine is yours from anywhere: 4K 60 capture, BIOS-level control, end-to-end encrypted, open source.
Capture
4K @ 60 Hz
Click-to-photon

Network
Native Tailscale mesh
Firmware
Open source, signed
Sec. 01 · Hardware
A warp field,
machined in aluminum.
The enclosure is 6K-series aluminum, its top surface machined into the geometry of curved spacetime. Passively cooled. Silent. No moving parts. 250 grams of intent.
Enclosure
6K-series billet
Footprint
88 × 56 × 26 mm
Mass
~250 g
Acoustics
0 dB, passive
Sec. 02 · Telemetry
Remote that stops
feeling remote.
Most KVMs quote glass-to-glass, pixel out to pixel in. We measure the whole loop instead, click-to-photon: from the moment you click to the pixel actually changing on your screen. Timed with a light sensor, 1,000 clicks per device, every device on the same bench. WarpKVM adds just 20 ms.

Sec. 03 · Capabilities
Total control,
down to the firmware.
BIOS-level control
Reboot, re-image, change boot order. If it has HDMI and USB, you own it down to the firmware, pre-boot included.
4K 60 capture
Hardware H.264 / H.265 encode with HDMI passthrough, so the desk monitor keeps working while you're inside.
Capture, cast, or both
One HDMI passthrough feeds the desk monitor and the IP stream at once, no extended desktop. Stream, cast a gaming rig to the TV, or both.
USB injection
Keyboard, mouse, and mass-storage emulation. Mount an installer ISO over IP from a continent away.
ATX power control
Pair with WarpKVM ATX for power, reset, and front-panel telemetry. Bring a dead machine back from anywhere.
Open, end to end
Firmware, web console, and mobile apps are open source and auditable, with signed updates.
Sec. 04 · Mesh
Zero open ports.
Infinite reach.
WarpKVM ships with Tailscale built into the firmware. Every device joins your tailnet the moment it powers on: no port forwarding, no relay servers you don't control, no VPN ceremony. Just an encrypted line between you and your hardware.
- End-to-end encrypted by WireGuard®
- Two Gigabit ports, daisy-chain a whole rack
- Multi-device view in the companion app
- Works across continents, carriers, and CGNAT
Fig. 01 · WarpKVM puts every machine one hop from you, on a single encrypted mesh. Your homelab, the rack, a workstation across the country: all directly reachable, no open ports.

Feature rows reflect publicly documented specs of competing products at the time of writing. Latency rows are median click-to-photon, measured in-house with a light sensor, 1,000 samples per device, identical setup; the DIY range spans PiKVM to BliKVM. Real-world performance depends on the network path between you and the device.
