What it is

SystemWatch: the homepage
SystemWatch is a task manager and system monitor for Mac that gives you complete visibility into what your Mac is doing. It explains every running app and process in plain language, shows temperatures from every sensor, controls fan speeds with custom curves, and helps you identify what's slowing your system down.
The app includes an AI Tune-Up feature that automatically finds performance issues and fixes them in one click, with the ability to undo any changes. You can pause apps without losing their work, manage startup items and leftovers from deleted apps, and safely clean storage with items going to Trash so they can be recovered.
SystemWatch monitors power usage in watts, shows network activity per app, detects dev servers, and maintains 30 days of history on your Mac. It works with Apple silicon and Intel Macs running macOS 15 or later, and includes an AI assistant that you can power with your own key from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or other providers, or run offline with Ollama or LM Studio.

Quick answers
What is the difference between the website edition and the Mac App Store version?
The website edition costs $5.99 as a lifetime license and includes full fan control, temperature sensors, power monitoring, AI Tune-Up, pause apps, startup items, and storage cleanup. The Mac App Store version is free or $5.99/month Pro subscription, but Apple's sandbox restrictions prevent fan control, sensor access, and app management features.
Is it safe to control my Mac's fans with SystemWatch?
Yes, it is safe. Only a small signed helper has administrator rights and only accepts SystemWatch commands to control fans. Above 95°C the fans automatically revert to macOS control, and if SystemWatch stops responding for 15 seconds, fans return to automatic mode.
Do I need an AI subscription to use SystemWatch?
You only need an AI subscription if you want to use the AI Tune-Up feature or the AI assistant. You can use your own key from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Mistral, xAI, DeepSeek, Groq, Together, or OpenRouter, or run a free model on your Mac with Ollama or LM Studio. Without an AI provider, Tune-Up still finds and fixes common problems automatically.
How many Macs can I use a SystemWatch license on?
You can use SystemWatch on up to 3 Macs at the same time, and you can move a license from one Mac to another whenever you like.
What happens after the first 100 copies are sold?
The launch price of $5.99 applies only to the first 100 copies. After that, the price increases to $14.99. If you buy at the launch price, that price is locked in for your license.
