NetGlobe for Windows

See every connection your PC makes — in real time and in depth. NetGlobe geolocates each outbound connection on a live 2D map and a cinematic 3D globe, then hands you the network owner, TLS certificate, process trust score, threat-intel matches, and a full diagnostics toolkit. It's network intelligence, not a firewall — it shows and explains, it doesn't block. Available now on the Microsoft Store, a one-time $18.99.

  • Windows 10 & 11, 64-bit (x64)
  • Runs as a standard user — no kernel driver
  • Local-first — no account, no telemetry
  • $18.99 one-time on the Microsoft Store
The full toolkit

What you get on Windows.

The complete NetGlobe feature set, running natively on your PC.

See it live

  • A live 2D world map and a cinematic 3D globe, drawing every active connection as it happens.
  • Each line is attributed to the process behind it, so you always know which app is talking, and to where.
  • Internet-health context from IODA and IHR, so you can tell a local problem from a wider outage.

Endpoint Focus

  • Click any connection to pivot to a panel with WHOIS / RDAP, TLS certificate, and reverse DNS.
  • A 0–100 process trust score from code-signing, parent process, and file age — with the reasons shown.
  • Path MTU and a live MTR trace to the endpoint, right inside the same panel.

Threat intel & diagnostics

  • Built-in threat-intel feeds — FireHOL, Spamhaus DROP/EDROP, ThreatFox, and the Tor exit list — flag risky endpoints.
  • A full diagnostics kit: traceroute, MTR, iperf3, speed test, port scan, and path MTU — no extra tools.
  • Everything runs in one window, so you can go from "what is this?" to "here's the route" without leaving the app.
Under the hood

Windows specifics.

How the Windows build actually runs on your machine.

Platform

Windows 10 or later, 64-bit (x64)

Covers both Windows 10 and Windows 11.

Privileges

Standard user — no kernel driver, no NDIS hook

No elevation prompt; nothing installed into the network stack.

How it reads connections

OS-native APIs — the same data netstat surfaces

It enumerates active sockets; it does not capture packets.

Interface

Browser-native UI on 127.0.0.1

A localhost-only HTTP server opens in your default browser — no Electron, no embedded webview.

Footprint

Small install, self-contained

No background service lingering after you quit.

Privacy

Local-first. No account, no telemetry.

Bundled GeoIP database; outbound calls are opt-in feeds only.
Getting started

Installing on Windows.

NetGlobe for Windows ships through the Microsoft Store, so there's nothing unusual to do. Open the Microsoft Store listing, click Get, and it installs like any other Store app — with automatic updates and the usual Store uninstall flow. Because it runs as a standard user, you won't see a driver-installation or elevation prompt.

On first launch, NetGlobe starts a localhost-only HTTP server on 127.0.0.1 and opens the interface in your default browser. That's the whole app — a live view of your connections, the Endpoint Focus panel, and the diagnostics kit, all served locally on your own machine. Nothing leaves your PC unless you turn on one of the optional intel feeds.

Pricing.

NetGlobe is a one-time $18.99 purchase on the Microsoft Store — no subscription, no recurring fee, no upsell. That's the same $18.99 one-time price as the Mac edition, which comes as a direct download. Buy it once and it's yours.

Common questions

NetGlobe for Windows — FAQ

Where do I get NetGlobe for Windows?

From the Microsoft Store. NetGlobe for Windows ships through the Store as a normal app install, so you get automatic updates and the usual Store install and uninstall flow. Open the Microsoft Store listing, click Get, and it installs like any other Store app.

Does NetGlobe need admin rights or a driver?

No. NetGlobe runs as a standard user with no elevation prompt. It reads your active sockets through OS-native APIs — the same information netstat surfaces — so there is no kernel driver, no NDIS filter, and no packet-capture hook to install.

How much is NetGlobe for Windows?

It is a one-time $18.99 purchase on the Microsoft Store. There is no subscription and no recurring fee. The same $18.99 one-time price applies to the Mac edition, which is a direct download.

Does it work on Windows 10 and Windows 11?

Yes. NetGlobe for Windows runs on Windows 10 or later, 64-bit (x64), which covers both Windows 10 and Windows 11.

Is NetGlobe a firewall or antivirus?

No. NetGlobe does not block, filter, or quarantine anything, and it is not antivirus. It is a visibility and diagnostics tool: it shows and analyzes every connection your PC makes in real time so you understand what is happening. Many people run it alongside Windows Defender Firewall, which handles enforcement.
