About the Company

Tailscale

Connects devices through encrypted private networks

Tailscale connects people, servers, and applications through encrypted private networks, giving businesses and individuals access to resources across clouds and physical locations. Its software uses WireGuard to encrypt traffic and connects devices directly where network conditions allow, with encrypted relay paths for harder connections. Administrators use identity services and access policies to manage who reaches each resource, without exposing every system to the public internet. The company sells business subscriptions priced by seats, with additional controls for larger teams and a free plan for personal use. Founded in 2019, Tailscale is headquartered in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
