Landing page captured for the 2026-10-07 issue.

For: Mac users juggling projects and AI agents
Worth noticing: The homepage marks its interface preview as sample data and says process attribution relies on visible process ownership.

Field notes

The documented interface separates Apps, Projects, and Agents, with sorting by memory or CPU and search by app, folder, or listening port. The site says five-minute charts track memory changes, while daily and weekly recaps summarize resource use; it cautions that growth is a clue, not a diagnosis. Its preview uses sample readings, and process attribution is described as relying on visible process ownership.
