How we measure

transparent methodology
01
Poll the APIs
Every 15 minutes we read providers’ public APIs — the same ones that power their apps.
02
Snapshot
Load, status and coordinates of every node are written to an append-only time-series.
03
Roll up
Hourly aggregates: avg/min/max load and uptime rate per country.
04
Score
A formula of uptime, load, coverage and jurisdiction privacy. No paid placements.
