The internet measures itself.
A global network measuring real-world connectivity. The devices already on the network report what they measure.
From one connection to a public dataset
A measurement lab in every connection.
Nobody owns an honest picture of how the internet performs. The networks carrying your traffic grade their own homework. The devices already on those networks can measure it instead.
01 / Six signals, one bounded run
Measure the line you are on.
Latency, packet loss, jitter, throughput, DNS and stability. A run takes seconds, costs little data, and reads your connection, not your traffic.
02 / Gates, not trust
A reading has to earn its place.
Every submission passes schema, duplicate, anomaly and reputation checks before it counts. What is refused is recorded with the gate that refused it, so a rejection is auditable rather than silent.
03 / Regional rollups
Readings become a picture of the network.
Accepted measurements roll up into regional cells, and the cells become a surface you can read: where the internet is fast, and where it is not.
04 / Your own line, first
See your own connection first.
Contributing starts with a reading of your own line: a quality score, the numbers behind it, and the history of what it has been doing. That reading is what you contribute.
Evidence-grade foundations
Independent of every network it measures
PYNQ takes no money from the networks it measures and publishes the method it measures them with. A reading is only worth something if the way it was taken can be checked by the people reading it.
-
Your traffic is never read
A run measures the path, not the payload. No browsing history, no content, no destinations.
-
Signed at the device
Every submission is signed where it was taken, so a reading can be traced back to the device that produced it.
-
Published method
The probes, the bounds and the rules that accept or refuse a reading are written down and open to challenge.
Measure your own internet
The network is not live yet. This is where it starts.
