DETERMINISTIC PATH INTELLIGENCE — GROUND TO ORBIT
Your customers should never discover an outage before you do.
Your tools tell you that a path degraded. PathMetrics tells telecom operators and ISPs where, why, and whether to trust the answer — which hop, which direction, with evidence — minutes before users feel it.
Protect revenue: designed to catch degradation 30–60 minutes before impact
Defend every SLA and peering dispute with hop-level, per-direction evidence
Walk into every review with one score you can explain — formula included
Performance figures are engineered targets from our published formula stack.
Design-partner program open — founder pricing for the first five production customers.
What is PathMetrics? PathMetrics is a deterministic network path intelligence platform for telecom operators, ISPs, and enterprises. Lightweight Anchors measure every hop of a network path in both directions; nine published, auditable formulas roll into one Path Health Score; PathiQ forecasts degradation before users feel it; and CredScore™ grades the credibility of every AI prediction.
What invisible path problems cost a telecom or ISP
Churn with your brand on it.
21% of customers churn after a single poor digital experience — and most of it traces to paths you can't see today, especially the reverse direction.

Six-figure hours.
Downtime averages $300K per hour, and without hop-by-hop evidence, engineers spend 90+ minutes asking "is it the app, the network, or the ISP?"

Disputes you can't win.
Peering-quality and SLA disputes drag on for weeks without per-hop, per-direction evidence — you pay penalties instead of settling with data.
Every unexplained "slow internet" complaint is churn risk. PathMetrics is built to end the guessing.
Who it's for
ISPs
Prove the fault isn't yours. Settle peering and last-mile disputes with per-hop, per-direction evidence, and catch reverse-path degradation before subscribers call.
Design target: $150K+/yr in avoided SLA penalties
Telecom Networks
One score per network, traceable to the hop that moved it — across core, transit, and interconnects. Forecast congestion 30–60 minutes before impact.
Enterprise & MSPs
Name the hop, the direction, and the responsible provider on ticket one — across every store, branch, and cloud region you manage.
Design target: first-pass ticket closure
Measure. Score. Forecast. Trust.
STEP 1 · MEASURE
Deploy an Anchor
A lightweight collector — Core at each termination point, Edge at each remote site. Bidirectional from day one.
STEP 2 · SCORE
Score nine metrics
Hop-by-hop telemetry rolls into PRI, MRR, PCI, ARI, BSS, TDC, BPCI, and more — every interval, every cycle.
STEP 3 · FORECAST
Forecast with PathiQ
Root-cause generation, degradation probability, congestion hotspot forecasting — before users feel it.
STEP 4 · TRUST
Gate with CredScore
Auto-remediate above your trust threshold. Route to a human below it. Your policy, your call.
▶ How PathMetrics Works?
PRICING YOU CAN COMPUTE ON A NAPKIN
No units. No credits. No frequency tax. Count your Anchors — know your bill.
The monitoring industry sells abstract currencies — units, points, credits — that punish you for monitoring more often. PathMetrics prices on one thing you can count in your own network: the Anchor.
Monthly = (Core Anchors × $299) + (Edge Anchors × $59) − published discounts
Everything an Anchor measures is included.
Billed annually · discounts stack on the annual price.
Core Anchor — $299/mo
$3,588/yr
Full orchestration node — bidirectional A↔B termination · up to 500 endpoints · PathiQ + CredScore™, ticketing, ServiceNow · deploy where paths terminate: DCs, cloud VPCs, PoPs.
Edge Anchor — $59/mo
$708/yr
Lightweight remote-site collector paired to a Core · full metric set on its paths (HbH, iPath, iMon) · deploy at stores, branches, last-mile sites. The sub-$1,000/site price no deep-path vendor publishes.
Founder pricing: 50% off year 1 for the first five production customers with a publishable case study.
Pre-computed, stackable discounts — up to 40% off. Published, not negotiated. Your exact number, in one reply. See full pricing →

▶ How PathMetrics pricing works
One number. Four clicks.
The exact hop.
This is the entire product, in one incident. No login required to understand it — because if you can't understand the value in thirty seconds, no demo call will fix that.
mScore 67 — 10 paths, 3 Critical. “Which paths?”
NY → LON, 35.8 — bidirectional, clickable row. “Which direction?”
Fwd 77 / Rev 83, combined 66 — BPCI. “Which metric?”
MRR 2/100 — “2 hops below 1400 bytes MTU.” “Which hop? → fixed.”
The hop-by-hop map — hop 5, reverse path, named owner. Everyone else troubleshoots bottom-up: logs, pings, blame. PathMetrics drills top-down, straight to the hop.
The same trace answers four different questions.
Close the ticket on the first pass.
The NOC gets the hop, the direction, and the owning provider in the same view that raised the alert — no escalation to a specialist to find out where the packet died.
ASKED IN THE CONSOLE
Why did NY → LON reopen for the third time this week?
ANSWERED WITH
Reverse path, hop 5, MTU below 1400 bytes. Sits on the peer's side of the interconnect — evidence attached to the ticket.
Depth, transparency, and a trust layer — not another dashboard.
two directions, two different paths
Hop-level, bidirectional truth
Others measure end-to-end and stop. PathMetrics probes every hop, forward and reverse — because your requests and your ACKs travel different paths.

Published, auditable formulas
Nine metrics, each a formula you can read, tune, and defend in front of an auditor. Deterministic-first — AI is never the ground truth.
CredScore-governed AI
PathiQ forecasts what breaks next. Every forecast carries a 0–100 credibility score — automate above your threshold, review below it.
Built around the incident you already know by heart.
ISP
"The complaint that wasn't your fault."
Prove the reverse-path hop sits on the peer's side of the interconnect.
QUICK COMMERCE
"Friday, 7:58 PM, Zone C."
Catch the dark-store slowdown before the dinner-rush refunds start.
ECOMMERCE
"The checkout that was 'up' all night."
Find the MTU fragmentation killing large payment payloads.
RETAIL
"Store 214 calls again."
Name the hop, the direction, and the responsible provider — on ticket one.

Frequently asked questions
How is PathMetrics different from end-to-end monitoring tools?
Most tools measure end-to-end and stop. PathMetrics probes every hop, forward and reverse, and every score is a published formula you can read, tune, and audit — the exact hop, direction, and reason, with evidence.
What do I need to deploy?
Lightweight Anchors: a Core Anchor where paths terminate (DCs, cloud VPCs, PoPs) and Edge Anchors at remote sites. Bidirectional measurement from day one — no operator's cooperation required.
Can I trust the AI predictions?
That's the point of CredScore™: every PathiQ prediction carries a 0–100 credibility grade. Automate above your threshold, route to a human below it. Deterministic formulas remain the ground truth — AI is layered on top.
How is my data secured?
Data is isolated per tenant, encrypted in transit and at rest; on-prem and air-gapped deployment options are available for regulated networks.
