Audience. Citrix is focused on entrerprises, while we want to focus on individuals. The technology / tool itself is nothing new. We want to make it easily accessible for common, non-technical people.
I was coming to comment the very same thing :)
Could they be thinking about building charging and landing stations for future flying cars / drones?

Thanks for your question!

Development is in early stage. We're currently inviting some handpicked testers to try our MVP.

Thanks for the feedback!

That's kind of what we want to do for some applications - video editing is a good example, because having to transfer heavy files is a big challenge.

But for our MVP, we simply stream the entire application.

That's exactly our vision. Cloud computing is a technology already available and well widespread. However, it still takes some technical knowledge to set up or to understand most solutions.

We want to make it so simple that people can launch applications with only one click.

Fastr is going to be a simple launcher where people can easily launch the software they want in a cloud server.

It will also automatically scale, taking all the set up stress away from the end user.
