Field notes
Pairing is presented as a QR scan from the phone to a code on the PC, with no required account. For assistance, the PC user shares a one-time nine-digit code and chooses the level of access; the page says the code expires after ten minutes. The site also describes direct device-to-device connections when possible and relaying when the network requires it.
