How Omega Relay compares
| Omega Relay | Tailscale + your own setup | |
|---|---|---|
| Connection | Integrated remote MCP and computer enrollment | Private network; connect an MCP service over the route you configure |
| Files and commands | Reviewed tools with local permissions and assistant grants | SSH or tools you run on the destination computer |
| Access controls | Choose capabilities per assistant and computer | Network policies and SSH rules for users, devices and destination logins |
| Web assistants | Custom remote MCP connection; account requirements apply | Requires a reachable service; Funnel is one public HTTPS option |
| Platforms | Mac beta, Windows 10 and 11, and Linux servers | Platform support depends on the Tailscale feature and tools selected |

Choosing an approach
Tailscale offers private networking and scoped SSH access. Its policies can limit which users reach which computers and OS logins; using SSH does not require granting an entire tailnet. Funnel can expose a service over HTTPS when that fits your setup.
Desktop Commander offers local and remote MCP for files, terminal commands and processes, with configurable directories and blocked commands. Relay’s focus is an integrated computer enrollment and assistant-specific capability workflow.

Pricing questions
- What counts as a tool call?
- Each action an agent takes through Relay, like reading a file, running a command or clicking a button.
- Do agents use up live view minutes when they work on the screen?
- No. Agents see and control the screen through Screen & control. Live view is for you: you watch the screen from your account and can take over the mouse and keyboard.
- What happens when I reach the limit?
- Tool calls fail until your weekly allowance resets.
- Is the Free allowance per computer or per account?
- Per computer: 500 tool calls a week for each, pooled across your account. Pro is priced per computer.
- How is Pro billed?
- Monthly, $10 for each computer. Cancel any time in Billing, and Pro stays until the end of the month you paid for.
