Pokesensor
Pokesensor is a local hardware-monitoring app for Windows, macOS, and Linux. It shows live CPU, GPU, memory, and disk readings, with one-second sensor graphs and an always-on-top mini overlay. Desktop alerts can notify users when readings move outside a configured range, and session logs export to CSV or JSON. The free plan includes live monitoring, the overlay, alerts, and support for all three platforms. Graphs can show a configurable history window up to 24 hours; VIP++ adds 30-day logging, while VIP Super+ includes unlimited logging history. The app runs without cloud services, accounts, telemetry, or sending hardware data. Its default polling interval uses well under 1% CPU, and its install footprint is 18 MB. Monthly plans are VIP at $5.00 USD, VIP+ at $10.00 USD, VIP++ at $20.00 USD, and VIP Super+ at $30.00 USD. Fan control depends on what the motherboard and operating system expose.
