Local machine diagnostics. Anywhere you need them.

Conduit runs silently on your users' machines and exposes a secure local HTTPS API so any remote system can collect device and software diagnostics without friction. Web portals, health tech platforms, point-of-sale systems, remote collectors, monitoring tools. Runs in the background on Windows and Linux.

any caller: curl, browser, collector

# Remote collector
curl https://127.0.0.1:1337/info
→ 200 OK  { "deviceName": ..., "system": ... }

# Web portal (HTTPS)
fetch('https://127.0.0.1:1337/info')
→ 200 OK  ✓  (no mixed-content error)

# Monitoring agent
GET https://127.0.0.1:1337/health
→ { "status": "ok", "version": "1.2.0" }

One secure local endpoint. Any remote caller.

Conduit runs its own HTTPS server on the local machine and exposes a clean JSON API. Remote collectors, web portals, monitoring platforms, and support tools can all query it. No mixed-content errors, no custom protocol, no agent SDK to integrate.

Secure HTTPS out of the box, no certificate setup or IT configuration required
Works from web portals, remote collectors, monitoring agents, and command-line tools
Resolves browser mixed-content restrictions for HTTPS portals
CORS origins locked for your business, only your authorised systems can query it
Network-configurable: with inbound port forwarding, reachable from remote systems over the internet

GET /info

{
  "deviceName": "CLINIC-PC-01",
  "system": {
    "os": "Windows",
    "osVersion": "10.0.19045",
    "manufacturer": "Dell Inc.",
    "model": "OptiPlex 7090",
    "serialNumber": "ABCD1234",
    "biosVersion": "1.12.0",
    "cpuModel": "Intel Core i7-10700",
    "cpuCores": 8,
    "totalRamGb": 16,
    "diskFreeGb": 287,
    "uptimeHours": 14.2
  }
}

Everything support needs, in one JSON response.

One call to /info returns a complete picture of the machine: OS version, hardware identity, resource usage, and software configuration. Feed it to your support tool, monitoring platform, or remote collector and you have everything you need.

OS, Windows build number, and version string
Hardware identity: manufacturer, model, serial number, BIOS version and date
CPU model and core count, total RAM, disk total and free
Last boot time and uptime in hours
Extensible: custom software modules add their own fields alongside system diagnostics

software module + response

# config
enabled = acme-suite

# GET /info → software[]
{
  "name": "Acme Suite",
  "version": "3.1.0",
  "server": "connect.acme.io",
  "installDate": "2024-06-15",
  "sourceMethod": "config_file"
}

Surface diagnostics for any installed software.

Conduit's reader architecture lets you expose diagnostics for any software running on the machine. We build custom readers to your specification. Structured JSON in the response, no changes to your integration required.

One reader module per software package, enabled per build
Multi-stage fallback strategy maximises read success even when software is in unexpected locations
Install date detection across Windows and Linux
Each software module returns structured JSON alongside system diagnostics
New modules are immediately available in the response with no integration changes

Windows installer + Linux package
from a single integration

Your brand. Every platform. Enterprise-ready.

Conduit is available as a fully white-labelled, enterprise-grade integration. We ship under your brand, customise it for your use case, and deliver native installers for both Windows and Linux. One integration, deployed everywhere your customers operate.

Fully white-labelled: your name, your brand, your installer
Native Windows installer and Linux package from a single build
CORS origins locked to your systems, no accidental data exposure
Customised per enterprise integration, not a one-size-fits-all product
Built and maintained by Perpetual Squared, we handle the complexity

deployment

# Windows
C:Program Filesacme-agent  acme-agent.exe
HKCU...Run → starts on login
Logs: %APPDATA%acme-agentagent.log

# Linux
$ systemctl status acme-agent
● acme-agent.service
   Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/...)
   Active: active (running) since boot

Windows and Linux. Standalone. No runtime required.

Conduit ships as a single standalone executable. No runtime, no dependencies to manage on end-user machines. Install it and it runs. Both platforms get a native installer and a proper system service.

Windows: native installer, starts automatically on login
Linux: native package, runs as a system service from boot
Standalone binary, no runtime or dependencies on the target machine
Binds to 127.0.0.1 only, never reachable from outside the machine

GET /health · GET /info

GET /health
→ {
    "status": "ok",
    "agent": "acme-agent",
    "version": "1.2.0",
    "installPath": "C:\Program Files\..."
  }

GET /info
→ {
    "deviceName": "CLINIC-PC-01",
    "system": { ... },
    "software": [ ... ]
  }

Two endpoints. That's it.

Conduit's API surface is intentionally minimal. /health confirms the agent is running and returns its identity. /info returns the full diagnostics payload. GET-only, no auth complexity. Easy to integrate into any collector or orchestration layer.

/health: liveness check compatible with PRTG and standard monitoring platforms, know instantly if a remote machine is unreachable
/info: full system and software diagnostics as JSON
GET-only, no mutation surface, no authentication required
Integrates with any HTTP client: browser, curl, or any programming language
