## Best for

Mac users who want iStat Menus-style monitoring without a subscription.

## Why it deserves attention

Stats puts CPU, GPU, memory, disk, network, battery, fan, and sensor readings in the menu bar, with configurable modules and history graphs. It is MIT-licensed open source with 43,000 GitHub stars, supports Apple silicon and Intel Macs, and installs from Homebrew or a signed release. It is local-only and lightweight. It does not monitor remote servers or alert on thresholds like a dedicated observability tool.
