What is TeamViewer Frontline?
TeamViewer’s industrial AR / connected-worker platform — hands-free digital guidance and remote expertise for the deskless workforce (via smart glasses), so physical work is faster, more accurate and safer.
Paper/analog frontline vs connected-worker AR — the honest table
What consolidation actually replaces, dimension by dimension.
| Dimension | Unprotected / signature email | Frontline (TeamViewer) |
|---|---|---|
| The frontline | Under-served by software | Digital, hands-free productivity |
| Work instructions | Paper, clipboards | Digital, in the eyeline, step-by-step |
| Picking | Paper/handheld (mis-picks) | Pick-by-vision (fast, accurate) |
| Assembly | Memory / paper (errors) | Guided, right-first-time |
| Expert help | Fly them in / phone guesswork | xAssist — see-what-I-see, remote |
| Hands | Occupied by device/paper | Free — both on the task |
| Training | Long, memorised | Guided — faster onboarding |
| Records | Manual / missing | Digital, documented |
Frontline digitises the frontline — hands-free guidance (xPick/xMake/xInspect) and remote expertise (xAssist), built on Ubimax. It's a project: start with the highest-ROI use case (pick-by-vision, remote assist). PTC shop? Vuforia. Only assist? Librestream. TechBag advises honestly.
The five pieces of the platform
Vendors love diagrams; buyers need to know what they’re actually operating. Here’s the whole platform, demystified.
xPick — Pick-by-Vision
Pick-by-vision for warehouses: workers see which item, which bin and how many in their eyeline on smart glasses, hands-free, so picking is faster and more accurate.
xInspect — Guided Inspection
Step-by-step digital work instructions and checklists overlaid hands-free make inspection and maintenance consistent and complete, with digital records.
xMake — Guided Assembly
Guided assembly shows work instructions step by step in the worker’s view, so complex or variant-heavy builds are done right, in order, with less training.
xAssist — Remote Expert
A frontline worker shares a live view through glasses or camera with a remote expert, who guides them with annotations and documents, without travelling.
Frontline Spatial & Platform
Frontline Spatial adds 3D workflows anchored to the physical space; the platform handles devices, workflow authoring and integration, on Ubimax heritage.
One agent per device feeding one shared console — modules join that setup instead of demanding their own operational stack.
Twelve capabilities. Guide, assist, platform.
Frontline puts hands-free guidance and remote expertise in front of frontline workers — so physical work is faster, accurate and safer — part of the TeamViewer portfolio.
xPick — Pick-by-Vision
Workers see which item, which location and how many in their eyeline and confirm as they pick, cutting mis-picks versus paper.
xInspect — Guided Inspection & Maintenance
Hands-free, step-by-step instructions and checklists for inspection and maintenance, with digital records for compliance.
xMake — Guided Assembly & Production
Step-by-step assembly instructions in the worker’s view, so complex or variant-heavy builds are done right and in order.
Digital Work Instructions
Digital, step-by-step, hands-free work instructions replace paper manuals, so workers never look away from the task.
xAssist — Remote Expert Assistance
A worker shares a live view with a remote expert who sees what they see and guides them, so expertise arrives without travel.
Live Annotation & AR Overlay
The remote expert or a workflow places arrows, markers and highlights onto the worker’s real-world view of the object.
Hands-Free Operation
Guidance arrives through smart glasses and voice, so workers keep both hands on assembly, picking or maintenance.
Knowledge Capture & Documentation
Records, photos and digital logs document inspections for compliance and capture expert knowledge into reusable workflows.
Smart Glasses, Wearables & Devices
Supports smart glasses, wearables, tablets and phones, so each job and environment gets the right device.
Workflow Authoring
Author and manage digital workflows and work instructions, building the guided procedures your operations need.
Integration with Systems
Integrates with WMS, MES, ERP, field-service and maintenance systems, so guidance is driven by and feeds back to operations.
Frontline Spatial (3D Workflows)
Spatial 3D workflows anchor guidance to the physical environment for the most advanced connected-worker scenarios.

Here’s what genuinely sets TeamViewer Frontline apart.
Reaching the frontline workforce that office software never did
Frontline workers who make, move, assemble, inspect and repair things were left with paper manuals, pick lists and phone calls. Frontline gives them hands-free guidance on smart glasses, task-specific apps (xPick, xInspect, xMake, xAssist) and remote experts, for faster, more accurate, safer work.
Faster, more accurate work — hands-free guidance beats paper and screens
Paper lists and handheld scanners make workers look away and switch attention, causing mis-picks and missed steps. Frontline puts step-by-step instructions in the worker’s eyeline, hands-free, with confirmation at each step, so picking, assembly and inspection get faster, more accurate and easier to learn.
Remote expertise on demand — xAssist teleports the expert
Scarce experts used to fly in or guide by phone without seeing the problem. With xAssist, a worker shares their live view through glasses or a camera, and the remote expert guides them with voice and AR annotations on the real object. Downtime falls and one expert can serve many sites.
A suite for real frontline jobs — built on connected-worker heritage
Generic AR glasses deliver little; value comes from tools built for real tasks. Frontline’s suite covers picking (xPick), inspection (xInspect), assembly (xMake) and remote help (xAssist), plus Spatial, and builds on Ubimax, an industrial connected-worker pioneer TeamViewer acquired.
From a listed global leader — part of the digital-workplace platform, India-relevant
Frontline comes from TeamViewer, a listed, profitable vendor (Frankfurt: TMV), and sits within its digital-workplace platform beside remote support and DEX. It suits India’s manufacturing, warehousing and maintenance workforce. TechBag provides scoping, use-case guidance and INR/GST licensing.
The honest scope
Frontline offers xPick, xInspect, xMake, xAssist and Spatial on Ubimax heritage; quote-only. Rivals include PTC Vuforia, Librestream Onsight, RealWear and Microsoft Dynamics 365 Guides. It is a project, not just software — hardware, authoring, change management — so start with pick-by-vision or remote assist.

The 8 questions to ask every vendor
Take this into your next vendor call — including ours.
Do you have a large frontline workforce (warehouse, factory, field) that software has never served?
Is warehouse picking on paper or handhelds causing mis-picks? xPick is often the clearest ROI.
Do you fly experts to sites or guide by phone? xAssist (see-what-I-see) teleports expertise — cutting travel, downtime and errors.
Are complex assembly or inspections error-prone or training-heavy? xMake/xInspect guide them step-by-step, hands-free, documented.
Have you planned hardware, authoring and change management? Which high-ROI use case will you start with?
PTC shop? Weigh Vuforia. Only remote assist? Librestream. Deeply Microsoft? D365. TechBag compares honestly for your needs.
Are you in manufacturing or logistics in India, with large warehouses and skills gaps? Frontline fits those needs.
