Route any HTTP request through a saved SSH connection — bastion, jump host, lab gateway, customer VPN. No ssh -L, no kubectl port-forward, no Postman environments that die when your laptop sleeps. The tunnel lives on the request, not in a terminal you forgot about.

For MSPs and IT consultanciesThe day a tech pastes Globex's vault password into Acme's terminal is the day a contract ends. Spaces scope credentials, runbooks, audit log, and AI context per client — with a per-Space AWS KMS key you can destroy on offboarding for cryptographic erasure.

For SREs, devops, and on-callMarkdown runbooks in the same Space as the SSH connections, HTTP requests, and DB queries they reference. Magellan drafts them from real session output. Every edit lands in audit. No more Confluence pages that drift six months out of date from the system they document.

For network engineers and NOC operatorsWireshark in one window. Termius in another. The browser tab pointed at the switch's web UI. PuTTY (still) for the firewall console. Replace the tab graveyard with one workspace where ping, MTR, packet capture, SNMP, syslog, and SSH all share context — and Magellan reads the output.

For SolarWinds ETS shops at renewal timeSolarWinds ETS is $1,995/yr/tech, Windows-only, and the UI hasn't been modernized in a decade. ShellYard Pro is $288/yr/tech, runs on every desktop your team owns, and ships an AI assistant. Honest about what doesn't port (WAN Killer, Wake-on-LAN, a few SNMP curiosities).

What every use case shares
What ShellYard isn't
No agents, no historical metrics retention, no alert routing. If you need NPM, Datadog, or Zabbix scope — keep them. ShellYard is the engineer-side toolkit you reach for when something is already broken or you're building it.
No session approval workflows, no session recording for compliance, no jit credential brokering. We do credentials-in-a-vault and per-Space RBAC. If you need CyberArk or BeyondTrust scope, keep them.
Desktop only — macOS, Windows, Linux. No iOS, no Android. Infrastructure work is desk work; we built for the screen real estate the work actually needs.
Install, open the one connection or request you were going to wrestle with today, and see if ShellYard ships it better than what you were going to reach for. If it doesn't, uninstall — no account required to try it.
