About Us

Why we built this site

This site focuses on practical, privacy‑aware networking tools. Our goal is to make everyday operations—like generating test MACs or identifying a vendor by OUI—simple, accurate, and transparent.

We keep the experience fast and accessible, with all sensitive actions performed client‑side whenever possible.

Design principles

Client‑first: generation happens in your browser. We do not store generated MAC addresses.

Clarity: copy and content are localized, concise, and SEO‑friendly.

Reliability: lookups are proxied through our server to avoid CORS issues and provide stable connectivity.

APIs and data sources

Vendor lookup uses the macvendors API for OUI→vendor resolution, with an optional local registry file to enrich results.

The site is built with Next.js App Router, TypeScript, and a small set of components. Content is centralized in lib to avoid hardcoding.

Common questions

Do you store what I generate?
No. MAC address generation runs in your browser. We do not log the generated values.
Is the lookup data authoritative?
The OUI registry originates from IEEE. Public services like macvendors mirror this data. We surface vendor info and, when available, a registered address.
Can I use generated MACs in production?
No. Generated MACs are for testing. For production, use vendor‑assigned addresses.
