Hi HN! I built PerfRoute because I was frustrated with monitoring tools that either required complex integration or provided shallow insights. Here's what makes it different: Our core is a distributed network of agents across cloud providers. Each agent:

* Automatically collects DNS metrics, SSL status, and geolocation data * Uses an isolated V8 engine to run custom evaluation logic * Can perform full MTR analysis (optional, takes 10-15s for accuracy) * Adapts automatically to identify network path anomalies

Technical implementation:

* Agents run in isolated environments with independent networking stacks * Custom JavaScript evaluation runs in V8 isolates for security * Dynamic baseline learning for network path detection * Automatic correlation of path changes with performance impacts * Zero-config SSL and DNS monitoring baked into every check

You can try it right now:

I'll here here to discuss the technical details and answer questions about the implementation. Particularly interested in hearing about:

* What monitoring edge cases are you struggling with?

* What network metrics would you find most valuable?
