For people who never close their tabs.

Free your RAM.
Keep your peace.

A small guardian for a crowded computer. It watches memory pressure, tries reversible fixes first, and protects what you're using.

Get RamWarden

Install, sign in, done. It runs quietly in your menu bar or tray.

A little breathing room.

Your world stays open.
Your computer gets a break.

Meet your guardian

Every tab you never closed
is still holding memory.

Your warden finds what you won't come back to,
and clears it. Reversibly first.

Free your RAM. Keep your peace.

RamWarden's pixel ram

Meet your warden.

It explains every call, cracks the odd joke, and dresses the way you like: wool, horns, hooves, eyes and pupils.

What RamWarden does with your memory.

It measures memory, checks what you are using, and chooses an action allowed by your settings.

MEASURES

Memory by app and process

Uses the memory measurements available on your operating system. On Linux, shared pages are apportioned instead of counted in full for every process.

TRIGGERS

Pressure checks and scheduled cleanup

Responds to memory pressure and can also check idle browser tabs on a schedule. Scheduled cleanup can run before memory fills up.

PROTECTS

Activity before prediction

Checks foreground use, browser activity, audio and protected processes. A background tab can still be part of your work; idle time alone is not proof you are finished.

DECIDES

Unload, pause or close

Unloading leaves a tab in the strip to reload later. Closing removes it and saves a reopen entry. App reclamation, pause and quit controls depend on your platform and settings.

Watch it think.

Drag the pressure up and see which step your warden takes at each level.

Your warden asks three quick questions about everything it might close.

ASKS

Will you be back within a day?

Last week's recipe goes. The docs you keep reopening stay.

ASKS

Could it hold unsaved work?

A half-filled form or a draft is left alone.

ASKS

Does it need to keep running?

Servers, builds and syncs look idle but aren't.

Two intelligent desktop companions.

Performance and security, starting at $4 per month or $20 a year.

Questions

Is there a free version?

Yes. RamWarden Lite is free: the full memory algorithm on one computer, with a free account and no card. The 8-bit warden companions and the AI come with Plus and Pro. You can also build RamWarden yourself from GitHub.

What happens after the trial?

Plus starts and renews per month or yearly until you cancel. Cancel any time from your account or your wallet, and your warden goes back to Lite.

Will it close something I'm using?

Active, pinned and audible tabs have protection checks, but predictions can be wrong. Closing and unloading are different actions. Review your cleanup settings, and reopen or report anything closed unexpectedly.

Is it safe for games and anti-cheat?

Yes. Games, anti-cheat, security tools and system processes are never touched.

How do I sign in?

Sign in with your wallet or your email.

What leaves my computer?
