Termio is a free, local-first desktop terminal application, SSH client, and connection manager designed for developers and teams working across macOS, Windows, and Linux. It addresses the need for secure, organized terminal workflows without reliance on cloud storage or proprietary sync services. All data, including connections, credentials, and files, remains stored locally on the user's machine, with no account or login required, ensuring privacy and native integration with each operating system's security model.
The application provides native workflows tailored to each platform: on macOS, it integrates with Apple Keychain for credential storage; on Windows, it supports PowerShell and Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) within unified workspaces; and on Linux, it uses Secret Service for secure credential management. Termio enables users to group connections into organized workspaces, manage folders and favorites, and instantly switch contexts. Workspaces are stored as plain text files, allowing for sharing and collaboration through Git, other version control systems, or simple file transfer, without any proprietary sync layer.
Key features include a built-in AI copilot that offers terminal context, tool execution, and per-connection memory, with support for any OpenAI-compatible API endpoint. The AI copilot only sends terminal context externally when the user interacts with it and can be configured to use local or custom endpoints. Users can attach reusable scripts and code snippets to connections, compose and stage multi-line scripts in a dedicated code editor, and split terminal panes both horizontally and vertically for flexible multi-tiling layouts. Drag-and-drop file upload is supported directly onto connections, eliminating the need for a separate SFTP client.
Termio is positioned as a terminal and SSH management tool that emphasizes local-only data handling, security, and collaboration through open formats. It is completely free to use, with no feature gates, usage limits, or premium tiers. The platform is suitable for developers, system administrators, and teams seeking a secure, organized, and collaborative terminal experience across multiple operating systems.
