Procman is a native process explorer for Mac that combines the hierarchy of pstree with the clarity of Activity Monitor. It shows a live parent-child tree so you can actually understand what spawned what, what’s consuming resources, and how everything fits together. A few things it does: Live process tree with parent-child relationships CPU, memory, disk, network, and energy stats Detailed inspector for individual processes Configurable menu bar companion Kill and restart process actions
Thanks for checking out Procman.
I built it because I wanted a process tool on macOS that felt more visual and intuitive than a flat table, but still serious enough to be useful for debugging real systems. The core idea is simple: show processes as a live parent-child tree so it’s easier to understand what’s running, where it came from, and what it’s doing.
Procman is a paid Mac app with a 3-day free trial, and I’d really love honest feedback on the UX, performance, and anything that feels confusing or missing. If you try it, let me know what you’d want a process explorer to do better. Please shoot me an email at [email protected]!
