02 Operating method
Most optimizer software starts with a dramatic diagnosis. Tempered starts with the readings and shows its work.
Safe to disable at startup. The application stays installed and can still be opened normally.
Live load, startup work, memory pressure, temperatures, and active processes.
A plain-language finding with the process or setting that caused it.
One clear action, expected result, and a recorded route back.
03 Inside Tempered
See the machine as it is, then decide what deserves intervention.
AI advisor
Every answer is tied to a reviewable action you approve or skip.
InspectLive dashboard
CPU, RAM, GPU, disk, uptime, temperatures, and the processes behind the load.
InspectSmart process manager
Classify what is running, suspend safe background apps, and turn on Game Mode. No kernel drivers, no process injection, no game-memory access — anti-cheat safe.
InspectSafe Windows tweaks
Review power, startup, and graphics settings without deleting system components.
InspectTask Manager (Tempered) · Torque
A full task manager in its own window — richer detail than Windows shows, with its own AI.
InspectDeveloper Hub · Torque
Local MCP server for Claude Code and Claude Desktop — strictly read-only, loopback only.
Inspect04 Built for restraint
Tempered keeps a ledger of what changed, when it changed, and how to put it back. Empty is a good sign.
05 Already using a free tool?
Tempered adds AI-assisted analysis, per-change approval, and one-click undo. If a free tool does what you need, use it — and Tempered's free tier is the full core app, so the comparison costs nothing to run yourself.

Windows 10 and Windows 11, 64-bit.
No. Tempered favors observable readings and before-and-after deltas over a vague score.
