Sensei Monitor is a the latest addition to Sensei, our suite of Mac performance tools. Featuring a modern design and advanced statistics tracking, Sensei Monitor allows you to create the ultimate Mac menu bar performance monitor.
Hi ProductHunters!
Last year I shipped Sensei, a brand new Mac app containing a suite of tools for monitoring and optimising Mac performance. Over the last 14 months, I've been working on my next big release.
Sensei Monitor is a brand new app for monitoring every aspect of your Mac performance, right from your menu bar. I know what you're thinking, "Isn't there a bunch of apps that already do that?" – Yes, but not quite like this.
Sensei Monitor features a brand new approach, with a modular widget system for both status item and panel. You can create and customise widgets and panels, and edit their layout easily with the drag & drop editor. Together with a new design that looks just right on modern macOS, I believe that it's the ultimate menu bar performance monitor for the Mac.
Sensei Monitor is included as part of our Sensei app. It requires macOS Big Sur 11.3 or later, and is compatible with both Intel and Apple Silicon Macs.

Very nice! To get it to work, I see a play button that runs it. Is the intention to just start it, then it's a set it and forget it deal? Or is it more optimal to run it, check out your machine's stats, then pause/stop it when you're done? Though that seems cumbersome. The manual run button is slightly confusing in terms of how it's supposed to be used. Maybe I'm spoiled because I use Bartender. Maybe this is in case folks want to hide it from the menu bar? If that's the case, it makes sense and the verbiage was just a tad bit confusing for me at first.
Beautiful design, by the way. A ton of info is displayed which is awesome!
The design in the screenshot got me and I installed the app right away. I should say I'm impressed by the design and functionality of the app. It's great having a great CleanMyMac competitor. I shared on Twitter, great job!
Excellent addition to Sensei. I quite like the modularity, but please consider adding an option for a more opaque background for the widgets. The darkest option shows a bit too much of my busy desktop and isn't as readable as it could be.
