Updates as they happen.
Kubernetes watch streams update your tables when resources change. There is no polling loop.
For people who live in kubectl
Kubernetes.
Native to Mac.
Manage your Kubernetes clusters in a native Mac app, with live updates straight from the API.
Built for your Mac. macOS 27 Golden Gate or later. Apple Silicon.
14-day full trial No account needed
A Mac app for
cluster work.
Open a window for each cluster. Switch between them with native menus, keyboard shortcuts, and the command palette.
Built with SwiftUI.
Kluster talks directly to the API server. It runs without Electron or a bundled copy of kubectl.
Work with the whole cluster.
Inspect resources and follow their events, then make changes from the same window.
The whole API.
Including your CRDs.
Live tables, structured details, condition timelines, and YAML for built-in kinds and custom resources alike.

Make changes from here.
Exec, port-forward, edit YAML, scale, restart, and drain. Mutation sheets show the kubectl equivalent before you act.
Find what's stuck.
Track blocking finalizers, live events, and restart heatmaps. See where the trouble starts.
Know which cluster
you're changing.
Context colors and named confirmations keep fleet work clear. Guarded deletes ask you to type the object's name.
Catch certificates before they expire.
Inspect TLS secrets, cert-manager objects, and webhook certificates. Wire probes find pods still serving a stale certificate after renewal.
Check Helm and metrics.
Helm history, values, and manifests. Opt-in CPU and memory columns, session sparklines, and node scheduling pressure.
Across your kubeconfig
See how every
cluster is doing.
Node readiness, pod health, and warning events across your kubeconfig. Open any context in its own native window.

Questions
What does Kluster need to run?
macOS 27 Golden Gate or later on Apple Silicon, and a kubeconfig (~/.kube/config or $KUBECONFIG). Kluster talks to any conformant Kubernetes API server: k3s, kubeadm, EKS, GKE, AKS, kind.
How does the trial work?
Use every feature for 14 days without an account or a payment card. After the trial, enter a license key to continue. Your settings and windows stay as they are.
Does it phone home?
The app has no telemetry or analytics. Network traffic goes to your clusters, to the update feed when you check for updates, and to the license server when you activate a key. Losing your internet connection never locks you out of the app.
Why isn't it on the Mac App Store?
Kluster needs to read kubeconfig, connect to your cluster addresses, and run exec-auth helpers. The App Store sandbox would restrict those operations. Kluster ships directly, signed with a Developer ID certificate and notarized by Apple, with updates over Sparkle.
Can it modify my cluster?
Only when you tell it to, with the same RBAC your kubeconfig grants kubectl. Destructive actions confirm first, name the cluster they target, and show the kubectl equivalent. Contexts default to a guarded mode that requires typing an object's name before deletes that cascade.
Who builds Kluster?
Kluster is built by Applied AI Piotr Rojek. Purchases are processed by Polar, the merchant of record, which handles payment, invoices, and VAT.
