About WattSeal

WattSeal is a free, open-source desktop app that shows you exactly how much power your PC consumes — broken down by application and by hardware component, updated in real time. Unlike Task Manager (which shows CPU %, not watts) or HWiNFO (which reads sensors but can't map them to your software), WattSeal bridges hardware telemetry and running processes into a single unified view. It's the only tool that tells you not just that your GPU is drawing 180W, but which app is responsible. Key features: Per-app power breakdown — see watts, electricity cost, and CO₂ per running process Per-component monitoring — CPU, GPU, RAM, storage, and network, individually tracked Carbon footprint tracker — automatically converts consumption to CO₂ based on your local grid (France 42 gCO₂/kWh, USA 384, China 555, or custom) Electricity cost calculator — know your PC's real impact on your bill Historical charts — spot trends over time with real-time, 1-min, 1-hour, or custom views Local SQLite database — all data stays on your machine, queryable for custom analytics Near-zero overhead — built in Rust, runs silently in the background No telemetry, no cloud, no tracking — 100% private Reads directly from hardware sensors via RAPL (Intel/AMD CPUs), NVML (NVIDIA GPUs), and ADLX (AMD GPUs). Validated against real smart plug measurements. Works on Windows, macOS, and Linux — single executable, no installation required. Available in English and French. Free and open source under GPLv3.

The per-app power mapping is the killer feature. Does it handle multi-process apps (like Chrome with 30 tabs) accurately, or does it lump them together?

@ashishdurgude They are currently grouped together (and it shows the number of tabs) but it's definitely in the short term roadmap. We mainly need to attribute correctly each tab to its content.

WattSeal helps you see which app is draining your battery, convince people that your RTX 5090 doesn't cost that much in electricity (hum). What will you use it for?
