HOW IT WORKS
CPU & RAM figures are estimated from real page signals — Long Tasks, FPS, event-loop lag, DOM complexity, and resource size. Network (MB/s) is measured from request metadata. For the active tab, Accurate Mode uses the DevTools protocol for precise readings.
All processing is on-device. No telemetry. No tracking.
