What Sand Studio does

Sand Studio is a Singapore-based software company founded in 2011 that develops the AirDroid product suite, spanning cross-platform remote device management, remote access, remote support, screen casting, and parental control for both enterprise and consumer markets. Its core technical platform is a cloud-based remote device management and access system built on AWS infrastructure, supporting Android, iOS, Windows, and Mac devices via proprietary remote access protocols, with end-to-end encryption (RSA/AES 256-bit where the private key never leaves the client), TLS tunneling for 80% of connections, and differentiated features including an AR Camera for remote guidance, Black Screen Mode for privacy, and two-factor authentication. The company maintains ISO 27001-certified data centers in Silicon Valley and Germany and is GDPR/CCPA/PCI DSS compliant.

The product portfolio is organized around two markets. On the enterprise side, AirDroid Business is an MDM/UEM platform priced at $12–$33 per device per year (Basic/Standard/Enterprise tiers) with modular capabilities including Kiosk Mode, Application Management Services, Geofencing & Tracking, and Windows Patch Management; AirDroid Remote Support (Business) is offered at $199–$599 per license per year. On the consumer side, AirDroid Personal, Cast, Parental Control, and Remote Support Personal are freemium/subscription products priced at $2.49–$9.99 per month, plus a standalone AI platform, GoInsight.AI. The business model combines product-led growth (free trials, freemium tiers, self-serve purchase) with enterprise field sales (custom quotes, dedicated Business Consulting Services) and a five-tier channel partner program (Reseller, Referral, MSP, Distributor, OEM/ODM). Customer segments span IT/MSP services, digital signage and multimedia, transportation and logistics, healthcare, retail, and government, with named customers including Aura Futures, Emart24, VisionFund Kenya, Digis Squared, and Tlalnepantla de Baz.

Direct peers

• Scalefusion: Scalefusion (formerly MobiLock Pro) provides MDM/UEM for Android, iOS, Windows, macOS, and Linux with kiosk lockdown, app management, and remote control. Directly comparable product portfolio, target verticals (logistics, retail, digital signage), and subscription-based pricing.
• TeamViewer: TeamViewer is a leading remote access and support platform serving both enterprise (Tensor) and prosumer markets, with cross-platform support and Tensor-based IT management add-ons. Directly comparable to AirDroid Remote Support and overlapping with AirDroid Business for IT support use cases.
• Miradore: Miradore offers cloud-based MDM for Android, iOS, Windows, macOS, and ChromeOS with a freemium model and clear focus on SMB and mid-market — directly overlapping AirDroid's strongest segment. Similar feature set (device enrollment, app management, kiosk, remote actions) and pricing approach.
• Splashtop: Splashtop provides remote access, remote support, and endpoint management for IT/MSPs and SMBs across Windows, Mac, iOS, Android, and Linux. Directly comparable to AirDroid Remote Support and competing in similar MSP/IT-services channels.
• Hexnode: Hexnode is a closely comparable UEM/MDM vendor offering unified endpoint management across iOS, Android, Windows, macOS, and Apple TV with kiosk mode, application management, and remote support. Targets the same mid-market and enterprise segments with per-device subscription pricing.
• ManageEngine (Mobile Device Manager Plus): ManageEngine Mobile Device Manager Plus is a direct MDM/UEM competitor offering cross-platform device management for Android, iOS, Windows, macOS, and ChromeOS. Comparable on enterprise MDM capabilities, target mid-market and enterprise customers, and pricing model (per-device subscription).

Broad incumbents

• Jamf: Jamf is the leading Apple-focused MDM (Jamf Pro) with broader UEM capabilities and a much larger enterprise footprint. Comparable as a UEM platform serving the same end-customer need (device management for distributed workforces), but specializes in Apple ecosystems where AirDroid is weaker.
• Microsoft Intune: Microsoft Intune is the dominant cloud-native UEM solution, bundled into Microsoft 365 Enterprise plans. Directly competes for the same enterprise MDM/UEM budgets but leverages the broader Microsoft ecosystem (Entra ID, Defender, ConfigMgr) to displace independent vendors.
• ConnectWise: ConnectWise provides RMM, PSA, and security software tailored to MSPs managing SMB and mid-market endpoints. Comparable as an MSP-channel-first vendor targeting the same IT-services buyer that AirDroid's MSP Partner program serves.
• Omnissa (formerly VMware Workspace ONE): Omnissa Workspace ONE is a broad enterprise UEM platform covering iOS, Android, Windows, and ChromeOS with deep VMware virtualization heritage. Directly competes in enterprise UEM RFPs against AirDroid Business at the high end of the market.
