    Measure your d*mn internet (by imup-io)

  • We require registration prior to downloading the app to ensure all users accept our terms of service before kicking the tires. If you're interested in seeing what the app does, we have open-sourced the code here: https://github.com/imup-io/client. We do keep the installation instructions behind our app which requires registration -- but this could easily be mirrored to our marketing site too if you'd argue that's valuable.

  • ndt-server

    docker native ndt5 and ndt7 server with prometheus integration

  • To be specific in my thought here: we could fairly easily allow an admin to modify the endpoint in our client to measure loss & latency to an internal address or service in the cloud rather than our default. Speeds on the other hand are something we can't support just yet as it would require a test server near that endpoint. For what it's worth, the speed test application we use does have other examples for deploying your own test server. We'd need to do a deep dive into what that looks like from an engineering and business perspective before enabling teams to spin these up and use them as targets.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
