Who is it for?
m1nd was built for people who need real network visibility without the overhead of enterprise tooling or SaaS subscriptions.
Target Users
Network Engineers
Managing remote sites, branch offices, or data centre interconnects. You need to know your tunnels are up, your switches are reachable, and your bandwidth is healthy — from a single dashboard you control.
NOC Teams
Quick-deploy synthetic monitoring without enterprise licensing. Set up a monitoring node at any site in minutes, not days.
Homelab Operators
Production-grade observability on a Raspberry Pi or VPS. Full monitoring stack in a single Python process with SQLite storage.
Managed Service Providers (MSPs)
Per-customer lightweight monitoring that doesn't phone home. Deploy one m1nd instance per customer site — no cloud dependency, no data leaving the premises.
Anyone Tired of SaaS Dashboards
If you've had enough of 30-tab SaaS dashboards and just want clean, real data on infrastructure you control — m1nd is for you.
