Your developers keep coding locally with Claude Code, Codex or Cursor — while the rest of the team sees what is being built, what is running and what changed. No shared terminal. No code upload. No "what are you working on?" messages.
The agent runs where the code is — on the machine and the subscription the developer already has.
Selected objects, tasks and execution state are shared — without making source code the collaboration layer.
Managers, product people and clients follow the work from the browser.
A founder, PM, QA or client follows the work without paying for another developer seat.
ILLUSTRATIVE EXAMPLE — SUBSTITUTE YOUR OWN TEAM SIZE AND RATE.
See progress without interrupting the developer. Today the founder asks and the developer stops; with Connect, what is being built, waiting, done and changed is simply visible.
Own machine, own coding agent, own subscription, own repository — one shared task and model state. Local execution for developers, shared visibility for the team, instead of a picture that lives in whoever was on the last call.
Give the client visibility without giving them your terminal: requested → planned → running → done → verified. Fewer status calls, less reporting written by hand — and the viewer seat the client sits in costs nothing.
Developer A's Claude works on checkout, developer B's Codex on admin. Shared tasks, a shared product model and execution state mean overlap is seen before work starts — not discovered at review.
Give them the product map — not a two-hour walkthrough. What the product is made of, what depends on what, what is being changed and where the work sits — without taking your best engineer out of delivery.
