Wired West Remote Ranger

Take the reins. From anywhere. Remote Ranger is an Android remote-assistance app with a browser viewer. A trusted helper can see and operate your phone from a computer or another Android device to troubleshoot apps, adjust settings, and guide setup.

How it works: Install the Android app, enable accessibility controls, and approve screen sharing. Share the phone's temporary nine-digit code with your helper, who connects through the private controller. Encrypted live video is preferred, with a slower encrypted picture fallback when a direct connection is unavailable. Either person can stop sharing.

Built for practical phone support. Remote Ranger addresses a familiar need in Android remote assistance: giving family, customers, and small businesses hands-on help when verbal instructions fall short. Its focused viewer brings taps, swipes, mouse-wheel scrolling, zoom, fullscreen, and connection timing together. Separate Home and Back buttons help the helper navigate even when an app hides its screen.

In active development. Remote Ranger 0.6.1 is being tested around the Galaxy Z Fold5. Compatibility testing continues; Android permissions and protected-screen restrictions still apply.

Wired West AI Remote — A Leap Forward in Automated Technical Support

Describe the problem. Let your support assistant get to work. Wired West AI Remote turns a simple conversation into hands-on help for an authorized customer computer. Name the computer and explain what needs fixing from your phone or browser. The assistant finds the right machine, connects through Splashtop, investigates the issue, and carries out troubleshooting and repairs within the approved task.

From printer trouble and file-sync problems to software setup and everyday Windows issues, it can work directly with the desktop while keeping you informed through a live activity log. It asks for clarification when needed, queues additional requests, and provides completion alerts plus an emailed session recap covering what it did, how long it took, and the outcome. It also works to restore the original desktop view when finished, preserving existing windows and unsaved work.

A major step forward for customer support: practical AI assistance that can investigate and act, with secure sign-in, password or passkey access, and a clear record of the work. Built by Wired West to reduce repetitive support work and help customers get back to business.

BiteDB — National Dog Bite & Attack Data Project

BiteDB is a U.S. dog bite and attack incident-data project being built to collect, organize, cross-reference and publish information about dog bites, serious attacks, fatalities, individual incidents, statistics and related news. The goal is to turn scattered incident reporting and source material into a structured public reference that can grow over time instead of remaining a collection of isolated articles.

BiteDB is being developed on Wired West Computing’s FORGE publishing framework. FORGE provides the research-and-publishing workflow behind the project: investigate new material, verify and preserve sources, structure the findings into reusable records, build and compare website updates, validate the package, publish it, and continue expanding the underlying data model as new information becomes available.

The full BiteDB site is currently under construction. The public site is an initial publishing baseline while the incident database, research model, statistical views, source structure and ongoing news-tracking tools are being built out.
