Windows logs shouldn’t require archaeology.

A native endpoint-evidence workspace for troubleshooting modern Windows—from raw logs to one coherent incident.

No account required. No runtime telemetry collected.

PROJECT SIGNAL

THE TRUST CONTRACT

The product promise is deliberately simple and inspectable.

Local-first analysis: Open and investigate endpoint evidence in the workspace on your machine.
No runtime telemetry: The running application sends no analytics, usage, device, crash, identity, or behavioral telemetry.
No account required: Start investigating without registration, sign-in, or a cloud workspace.
Open-source code and release pipeline: Inspect how CMTrace Open is built and how its releases are published.
