Technical notes
Optanik is our product. Parts of the remote-session and overlay-network stack are built with open-source projects. This page exists so those projects are credited.
Remote sessions
Unattended Remote Control in Optanik uses RustDesk, an open-source remote desktop project.

Optanik Network
Optanik Network, the per-group overlay used for policy, DNS, firewall / port-forward rules, guest invites, and Windows File Management, uses Headscale, an open-source, self-hosted implementation of a Tailscale-compatible control server.
