# Tandem

> Virtual office with one-click calls and shared-cursor screen sharing

Tandem is a virtual office app for remote and hybrid teams. It shows which teammates are available, in a conversation or busy, and lets anyone start an audio or video call with a click instead of sending a meeting link. Calls include screen sharing with shared cursors and remote control, and standing rooms and tables give a team somewhere to co-work.

## Key features

- **Team presence:** See who is around and who is free to talk, and ask Tandem to notify you when a busy teammate becomes available.
- **One-click conversations:** Wave at a teammate to start an audio or video call without a meeting link, or join a conversation that is already under way.
- **Screen sharing with shared cursors:** Share a screen, tab or app in one click. Teammates can point with their own cursors, and remote screen control can be switched on.
- **Rooms and tables:** Public or private rooms hold focused conversations, tables let people overhear neighboring conversations, and music rooms play a shared soundtrack while co-working.
- **Meeting reminders and widgets:** Upcoming calendar meetings come with reminders and auto-join, and calls can add widgets such as a timer, standup, agenda, poll and music.
- **Hybrid Spaces:** Kiosks, screens with a camera and audio system placed around a physical office, let remote teammates drop in on the open floor or a meeting room.

## Good for

- Remote teams that prefer quick spoken conversations to scheduled meetings
- Pair work that relies on screen sharing with shared cursors
- Hybrid offices that want remote staff visible on screens in the office

- Paid plans are sold by team-size tier (10, 50 or unlimited members), and the per-member charge for going over a tier is not shown on the pricing page.
