Why choose Tailscale?

Tailscale is a secure and private, identity-based,
infrastructure agnostic network with a flexible topology,
resilient networking, and a streamlined setup.

It’s a network that just works.

Built for scale

Let’s face it: traditional VPNs don’t scale well. When connections to internal networks go through a central VPN concentrator, bottlenecks are commonplace. Speed and reliability take a hit, too.

Designed for connectivity

Tailscale’s peer-to-peer mesh network allows your machines to connect to each other directly — with coordination provided centrally — reducing bottlenecks, speeding things up, and improving reliability.

Optimized for security

Tailscale’s “zero trust,” identity-based approach to security enables the use of single sign-on (SSO) and user group-based security policies. So you can operate with total peace-of-mind.
