Network health · from inside the network

Know the moment the internet connection at a location breaks.

SesamIQ watches each location's connection from the inside and tells you the instant it degrades — latency, packet loss, ISP and gateway — with a clean incident timeline. Drop in the agent; it just reports.

Built for SoHo, small business, power-home users & MSPs.

What you see

The connection, explained — not just a red dot.

Every check rolls up into a timeline you can actually read: what happened, for how long, and the network it happened on.

One platform. Two ways to watch your network.

Pulse Available now

Connection health for every location. Know the instant a location or its internet connection goes down — latency, packet loss, ISP & gateway insight, and a clean incident timeline. Runs as a free software agent, or a plug-in device soon.

Scout Coming soon

See every device on your network — make, model, and comings-and-goings — with zero probing. Passive discovery that just listens, so it can never poke or slow the things it's watching.

In the workshop
The SesamIQ plug-in device — a palm-sized orange metal box with a finned heatsink top, an Ethernet jack, and a USB-C port.
Hardware

A plug-in device — coming soon.

Rather not babysit a computer? A palm-sized SesamIQ box you plug into any LAN port. It finds its own way out and starts reporting — nothing to install.

Indicative specs. Until it ships, the free software agent gives you the same monitoring on any always-on machine.

Pricing

Simple, per monitor. And free while we build.

One monitor = one site you're watching. That's it — no per-metric add-ons, no seats to count. Start now with the software agent; you won't be billed during preview.

The plug-in hardware device arrives later, and its pricing comes then. For now, run the free agent on any always-on machine.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Is it free right now?+
Yes. SesamIQ is in preview and the software agent is free while we build. Planned pricing is $10 per monitor / month, and we'll tell you well before anything is billed.
What's a "monitor"?+
One place you're watching — typically one site or network, with one agent reporting its health.
Do I need the hardware device?+
No. Run the software agent on any always-on machine — a Mac, a Linux box, a Raspberry Pi. The plug-in device is a coming-soon convenience, not a requirement.
What does it actually watch?+
Your internet up/down, latency and packet loss, and the network around you — gateway, ISP, and device details — opening and resolving incidents with exact timestamps and durations.
Does it capture my traffic?+
No. The agent never records packet contents. It makes outbound connections only — no inbound ports, no firewall changes, nothing installed on your other computers.
Which platforms run the agent?+
macOS, Linux, and Windows. A Raspberry Pi or mini-PC makes an ideal always-on monitor.
How do I get alerted?+
Email, the moment a site goes down or the connection degrades — before the phone rings.
What's Scout?+
Our next product: passive discovery of every device on your network, with zero probing. Coming soon.
How is this different from Uptime Kuma or Uptime Robot?+
Those are excellent, but they're outside-in probers — one server reaching out to a list of endpoints to ask "are you up?" SesamIQ is inside-out: an on-site sensor measuring the connection itself and reporting to a cloud that notices when a site goes dark.

VantageInside the network — measures the connection itselfOutside-in — probes endpoints from wherever it runs
SetupDrop in an agent (or device); it reports on its ownSelf-host the server, hand-build each monitor
What you learnLatency, packet loss, ISP/ASN, gateway & device identityUp/down and response time
Outage detectionThe cloud sees the agent go silent and opens the incidentIf the site's own internet dies, the monitor dies with it
For teamsMulti-tenant — many customers, sites & agents in one placeA single self-hosted instance
HostingManaged — nothing to runYou run and maintain it

Honest take: Uptime Kuma is great — and free — for classic "is my website up?" checks. SesamIQ is for the health of a physical location's connection, measured from inside, across every site you care about.
