Network monitoring shouldn't require a dozen tools and fragmented scripts. TRCR replaces them all with a single, configurable daemon that runs 24/7.
Making Network Visibility Accessible
TRCR was built by network engineers who were tired of juggling ping scripts, manual traceroutes, curl commands, and throughput test sessions across dozens of sites. We wanted one tool that could do it all continuously, ship the results to the databases we already use, and scale from a single server to a global mesh of monitoring agents.
The result is a network testing and monitoring daemon that continuously probes your infrastructure — servers, services, DNS, certificates, routing and network paths — and ships the results to the backend you choose. It replaces ad-hoc scripts and fragmented tools with a single, configurable system that runs 24/7, on your hosts, with your data staying in your database.
Built for Scale
From a single node to thousands of targets across distributed sites, TRCR is designed to handle real-world network monitoring at any scale.
14 Probe Types
Ping, batch ping, TCP, traceroute, liveness sweep, NTP, path MTU, HTTP/HTTPS, SSL expiry, DNS, DNS propagation, native throughput, SNMP and BGP — in one binary. See every probe.
4 Backends
Ship results to PostgreSQL, InfluxDB, Elasticsearch and Prometheus, in any combination at once, plus stdout and file outputs for debugging and log shippers.
Full Mesh
N agents automatically create N×(N-1) measurement paths with zero per-agent configuration. 10 agents, 90 paths, every 60 seconds.
1 Config File
Define all targets, agents, probes, and outputs in a single YAML file, validated before it runs. Changes reach every agent within a minute.
Our Values
Operational Simplicity
One config file defines everything. One-shot mode for CI/CD, daemon mode for continuous monitoring. Systemd-ready with structured logging.
Reliability
Graceful shutdown ensures data is flushed on SIGTERM. Capability-based privilege model means no root required. One failing backend never stops the others.
Flexibility
Use any combination of probe types and backends. PostgreSQL stores each probe type in its own typed, monthly-partitioned table, so retention is a setting, not a migration.
Scalability
From 5 free agents to enterprise deployments with thousands of targets across a global mesh of monitoring agents. TRCR scales with your infrastructure.
Who Is Behind TRCR
TRCR is developed and sold by NameVerse, Inc., a software company in Palo Alto, California, which also publishes as TRCR Networks. The product was founded in 2025; the daemon's releases, documentation and dashboards are published under github.com/trcrdev, and the same team runs the public demo mesh at demo.trcr.dev.
The security page describes how the daemon protects itself and what it sends us (licence telemetry only, never your results). The terms and privacy policy name the governing law and the data controller.

Not to be confused with: the traceroute command, the Mycobacterium trcR gene, TRCR the time-tracking app at trcr.pro, or any cryptocurrency using the TRCR ticker. The network monitoring daemon lives at trcr.dev.
