  • Expiring URLs excluded from cache key
  • Render stream while encoding with real-time caching
  • Range-capable seeking for cached variants
  • Immutable cache with long-lived variant URLs
  • Audio-only enforcement preventing video processing
  • Lists all running simulators, emulators, Gradle daemons, containers and dev servers with their RAM usage
  • Stop processes using their native tools (simctl, adb, docker stop) instead of force-killing
  • One-click Clean slate to free idle processes while protecting databases and active builds
  • Automatic rules for dev servers, simulators, emulators and daemons (Pro)
  • Disk scan showing Xcode DerivedData, old simulator runtimes, unused Android images and node_modules (Free)
  • CLI and MCP server for AI agents to check running processes and free ports
  • Memory pressure alerts and automatic cleanup (Pro)
What makes it different
  • URL-based API with no request bodies or server-side state
  • Options normalize to same cache key regardless of order
  • Streams first render to client while caching simultaneously
  • Range-seeking on cached variants with CDN-friendly immutable policies
  • Open source with Elixir implementation and reference signing algorithms
  • Stops each process type the way its own tool does (simctl, adb, docker) instead of force-killing
  • Groups processes by type (simulators, emulators, daemons, containers, servers) unlike Activity Monitor which lists raw processes
  • Pay once, no subscriptions or recurring charges
  • Free tier includes full menu bar app with stopping and Clean slate; Pro only adds automatic rules and extras
  • Never stops databases, builds in progress or system processes without confirmation
