Visibility. Performance. Assurance.
Software-first network visibility, performance testing, and simulation tools — engineered for engineers who need deterministic, standards-aligned results.
| Product | What it does | Repo |
|---|---|---|
| Seed | Portable network diagnostics: link, switch, DHCP, DNS, Wi-Fi troubleshooting, and security posture from any network jack. Safe to run on clinical and industrial networks. | seed |
| Stem | Standards-aligned performance testing: RFC 2544, ITU-T Y.1564, Y.1731, RFC 6349, MEF, and TSN. Reflector, generator, and certifier in one binary. | stem |
| NIAC | Network In A Can: a single-binary device simulator that speaks real protocols (ARP, DHCP, DNS, SNMP, LLDP, CDP, STP, and more) on real interfaces for testing, training, and lab work. | niac-go |
| Trellis | Wi-Fi site survey, heatmaps, and predictive planning. Pre-alpha. | trellis |
Every product ships as one Go binary with an embedded web UI and runs on macOS, Linux, and Windows. Nothing phones home, so air-gapped clinical, industrial, and government networks are first-class.
| Repo | Purpose |
|---|---|
| foundation | Ed25519 license validation and per-session CSRF shared by the fleet |
| .github | Fleet-wide CI, Renovate policy, and reusable workflows |
