System Vitals For Your Mac

Fan speed, memory, and CPU usage. Always one glance away.

teenystat lives in your menu bar and shows your Mac's vital signs in real time: color-coded thresholds, rolling sparklines, memory breakdown, per-core CPU chart, and a global hotkey to open the dashboard from anywhere. Built natively with Swift. Zero third-party dependencies. 3-day free trial, then $4.99 once.

Know your Mac's state at a glance.

Color-coded thresholds tell you instantly whether things are cool, warm, or running hot. Colors transition smoothly. No jarring snaps.

Normal
All clear
Everything is within normal range. Your Mac is happy.
Warning

A metric crossed its threshold. Worth keeping an eye on.
Critical
Take action
Sustained high values. Check for runaway processes.

Three metrics. One menu bar icon.

Pick which metric shows in the menu bar. Click to open the full dashboard with all three.

Fan Speed

Current RPM for every fan with min/max range. Automatically hidden on fanless Macs like MacBook Air.

Memory Pressure

Used vs. total RAM as a percentage, plus a detailed breakdown of active, wired, and compressed memory.

CPU Usage

Total load plus per-core mini bar chart. Spot which cores are working hardest.

60-point sparklines for every metric.

teenystat keeps a rolling 60-point history for each vital, covering the last 3 minutes at the default interval. Watch trends develop in real time without opening Activity Monitor or installing heavyweight system tools.

Memory breakdown, not just a percentage.

See your used vs. total RAM at a glance, then drill into the details: active, wired, and compressed memory, each shown in GB. Know exactly where your memory is going.

See every core at work.

The per-core CPU view shows a mini bar chart of each core's load. Instantly spot when a single core is pegged at 100% while the rest idle - the telltale sign of a misbehaving process.

Threshold alerts with smart cooldown.

Set custom thresholds for any metric. teenystat sends a native macOS notification when a value crosses into the red zone, with a 10-minute cooldown so you're informed, not spammed.
