P-Cores vs E-Cores Load Matrix
A live map of every core — which ones are sprinting, which ones are coasting, and a heads-up the moment your Mac is genuinely overloaded.
Live view of your Mac
Pro Dashboard & Architecture Center
Everything Activity Monitor tells you, without opening it: what each app really costs you, how much memory is being squeezed, which cores are busy — and a one-tap way to free memory up.
Hardware RAM Compression
Shows how much memory your Mac is squeezing instead of slowing down — the ratio (say 8.5×) and the gigabytes it saves you right now.
Graphics memory monitor
See how much graphics memory a render, a game or an AI model is holding — and catch the pressure before your Mac starts stuttering.
Physical Footprint & Disk I/O
The real cost of every app — the same numbers Activity Monitor shows, plus how much each one has written to your disk.
Smart Process Guardian
Protects 30+ critical and developer apps (Claude, IDEs, Termius, Docker, terminal sessions, listening ports) so they are never terminated during memory sweeps.
1-Click Smart Care
Comprehensive composite scan: flushes inactive RAM, deep cleans caches, halts hung apps, wipes trash, and sweeps privacy traces in one smooth operation.
App Nap & E-Core Throttling
Move a greedy background app onto the energy-efficient cores, or pause it entirely — safely, without closing it or losing your work.
Hung Apps Monitor & Interactive Actions
Finds the app that has stopped responding — the spinning-beachball one — and lets you force-quit it in a single click, straight from the notification.
System Health Exporter
Generates audit-ready diagnostic reports detailing hardware topology, memory pressure, battery chemistry, network health, and security integrity in HTML, JSON, or CSV.
Memory leak watcher
Spots the app that keeps growing and never gives memory back — and warns you long before your Mac freezes.
Process Rejuvenation & Soft-Reload
Wakes up sluggish background helpers and browser processes so they hand back the memory they've been hoarding — without closing anything you're working in.
Clean UP 2.0 & DaisyDisk-Grade Space
Deep Cleaning & Heavy Data Analysis
Reclaims dozens of gigabytes that other cleaners miss: Chrome on-device AI models, sandboxed containers, iOS backups, developer caches, and duplicate files.
Space Lens 2.0 & AI Models
DaisyDisk-grade visual interactive disk hierarchy with a dedicated zone for local AI models (Ollama, LM Studio, Hugging Face) and Docker containers.
DoD 5220.22-M File Shredder
Irreversible cryptographic file obliteration adhering to US Department of Defense 5220.22-M (3-pass & 7-pass) and Gutmann 35-pass standards.
Duplicate finder that's never wrong
High-speed duplicate finder utilizing a 16KB prefix-hash saving 95% disk I/O, with 1-click smart auto-selection to keep newest or oldest files.
Similar Photos & Screenshots
Detects visual series, burst shots, and multilingual screenshot sequences across your library with side-by-side comparison.
14+ Smart Clean Categories
System caches, incomplete downloads (.crdownload/.partial), metadata clutter (.DS_Store/._*), crash reports, mail downloads, and obsolete installers older than 30 days.
Sound Library Sweeper
Pinpoints and cleans unneeded instrument packs, Apple Loops, GarageBand lessons, Logic Pro content, and Ableton cache consuming 10-40 GB.
Messengers & Desktop Clutter
Sweeps gigabytes of voice messages and media from Telegram, WhatsApp, Signal, Slack, and Discord, plus structured desktop cleanup.
Browser AI cache cleaner
Chrome and Edge quietly store gigabytes of AI models and graphics caches. This finds them and clears them out.
Hidden backup cleaner
That's why emptying the Trash frees nothing: Time Machine quietly keeps copies of deleted files on your disk. This finds them and lets them go.
Protection that stays on your Mac
DrMaco Guard Ultra Security
Thirteen modular behavioral protection shields monitoring persistence mechanisms, unauthorized privilege escalations, hardware eavesdropping, and zero-day threats.
Real-Time Ransomware Sentinel
Watches for the tell-tale burst of files being encrypted or renamed en masse, and raises the alarm before your documents are locked.
What comes back after a restart
Lists everything that quietly launches itself when your Mac starts — and lets you shut off what you never asked for.
USB Mount Sentry
Automatically scans newly mounted external drives, flash disks, and DMGs for hidden executables, malicious autorun scripts, and suspicious payload structures.
Permissions you forgot about
Audits privacy permissions and identifies applications that have not been opened in months yet retain access to Camera, Mic, Accessibility, or Disk.
Hardware Spy & Eavesdropping Auditor
Warns you the instant anything reaches for your camera, microphone or screen without asking.
VirusTotal 1-Click Multi-Engine Query
Checks a suspicious file against 70+ antivirus engines at once — using only its fingerprint, so the file itself never leaves your Mac.
Admin access audit
Checks whether anything has quietly given itself administrator rights on your Mac — a classic back door left behind by shady installers.
Security settings check-up
Checks System Integrity Protection (SIP), Gatekeeper, FileVault full-disk encryption, stealth firewall mode, and remote service hardening.
Anti-malware cleanup
Finds adware and other unwanted software hiding in your Mac's startup items, then removes it in one click.
Developer Cleanup & App Architecture
Application Suite & Dev Projects Sweeper
Complete app lifecycle control: safe termination before uninstall, orphaned config hunting in ~/Library, app localization slimming, and 1-click dev project reclaiming.
App Uninstaller & Leftovers

“Open With” menu repair
