Chrome remote desktop is very fast, speedwise how does this compare?
I feel like it got a little slower when they moved it from a Chrome App to https://remotedesktop.google.com as part of deprecating Chrome Apps. Other than that, it's pretty great (and simple to use). I always recommend it to people with Windows home editions, since they can't use RDP.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
This indeed is mostly a wrapper around guac. But we did design a custom client protocol for speed.
Doesn't Guacamole Client's Apache License 2.0 require you to provide copyright notice / attribution for using it in this way? I don't see it anywhere here.

The bigger challenge (and therefore added value) is to access desktops from remote locations. Similar to TeamViewer or Google RemoteDesktop.
How does it fair against a firewall or behind a router? Is it just a simple client for convenience or does it provide a server too? Cause being able to pass through a firewall would be worth paying for, otherwise I still have the same problems as using a normal client.
I think this only works on the local network (or vpn) ? In which case I wonder what the added value is ? There are several free solutions that work exactly like this in a local network (like vnc). The only (?!) difference is you asking money ? The bigger challenge (and therefore added value) is to access desktops from remote locations. Similar to TeamViewer or Google RemoteDesktop.

This should work from anywhere if the server you are connecting to has a public IP.
Its still very unclear to me what your added valude is ?
How would this compare to something such as https://guacamole.apache.org/
yet another site which asks for your email before showing you anything. Just one page telling how incredible this is. But not even a page about the authors/makers and how the magic (not plugin required) works.
I tried showing a quick demo in the attached video. I wonder how can I improve this.
EDIT: to be clear, there was enough screen real estate to show it; it was simply empty white.
