Teams deploying private networks often hit VPN performance bottlenecks but lack tools to diagnose issues. A lightweight analyzer could measure latency, throughput, and packet loss then suggest configuration optimizations.

Start with basic network metrics visualization and common WireGuard/Tailscale tuning recommendations. Later add automated configuration adjustments.

Initial version could be a CLI tool with 3-5 key metrics. Main risk is the narrow technical audience limiting growth.
