Technical architecture

Technical architecture

An open-source base and a fast on-device agent. Full control is yours.

OpenWRT base

A proven open-source core. No lock-in, full control via opkg.

Panel + local agent

The browser panel talks to a fast on-device Go agent; measuring and tuning are instant.

You stay in control

Remote management is optional and always user-approved; turn it fully off with a single switch.

Privacy architecture

Clutch only looks at performance. It NEVER sees:

  • The sites you visit or your content (no DPI)
  • Which server you connect to (no SNI logging)
  • Traffic history or records (no logs)

The only thing seen is technical metrics: packet loss, latency, bufferbloat, WiFi/WAN.
