  • NordVPN logo

    Hotel and café wifi is the actual threat model on the road. NordVPN with the kill-switch on means a dropped wifi never silently leaks your work traffic. NordVPN

  • Fireflies logo

    Patchy internet kills meeting recall. Fireflies records and transcribes Zoom/Meet/Teams so you can rejoin a dropped call without losing the thread. Fireflies

Frequently asked

What is the minimum connectivity stack for a 3-person nomad team?
A travel eSIM per person, a paid VPN with kill-switch, one hardware hotspot for the team, a shared password vault, and a "if wifi dies do this" runbook in three steps. Everything else is optional.
How do you handle bad client-call wifi as a team?
Whoever is on the call switches to mobile hotspot pre-emptively at the first quality dip. The rest of the team holds video off until the call is back. Pre-agreed rule beats real-time scrambling.
What about VPN for client confidentiality?
Personal VPNs are fine for individual privacy. For client work that needs auditable access, use a zero-trust tool (Tailscale, Cloudflare Access) and keep client networks separate from your daily browsing.
Do nomad teams need a real router on the road?
For three plus people sharing a long-stay rental, a travel router with VPN built in lets the whole flat ride one good connection. For shorter stays the laptop and phone hotspots cover it.
How do you keep costs predictable?
One eSIM provider for all members, one VPN team plan, a shared spreadsheet of monthly tool costs. Review every quarter; cancel anything no one opens that month.
