Research / Infrastructure Telemetry

Wire-Level Conformance and Gateway Telemetry

Inspecting TTFT, streaming packet cadence, and Claude Code header compliance across reverse proxies.

Wire-Level Fingerprinting

Third-party aggregators enforce strict client fingerprinting. We analyze how gateways inspect User-Agent headers, session IDs, and platform metadata to detect and prevent unauthorized client rejections.

Streaming Dynamics & TTFT

Time-to-first-token (TTFT) and inter-token arrival times provide distinct hardware signatures, distinguishing between local GPU clusters, cloud relays, and throttled proxy endpoints.

Actionable SLA Auditing

Unmask AI arms developers with verifiable, reproducible data to hold API resellers accountable to their performance, model quality, and pricing claims.
