Company history

Splashtop Inc. is a privately held software company founded in 2006 and headquartered in Silicon Valley.

The company was founded in 2006 under the name DeviceVM Inc. Its first product, named Splashtop OS, was an ‘instant-on’ Linux-based computing platform. The company partners with OEMs and manufacturers to integrate this technology into personal computers.[2] The company changed its name to Splashtop in 2010.[3]

The original Splashtop Remote product was split into multiple products with the release of Splashtop Business[4] in 2013. The original consumer-focused product was renamed Splashtop Personal. Splashtop Remote Support was announced in 2015 as Splashtop Business for Remote Support[5] and later renamed Splashtop Remote Support. Splashtop On-Demand Support was introduced in 2015.[6][7]

Products

Splashtop products offer different modalities of the remote computer access and require an internet connection on both the computers to operate.
