CLI Startup Booster

Analyze and optimize CLI tool startup time automatically, making every call lightning fast.

Problem

Developers run many CLI commands daily, but startup time is wasted loading configs, plugins, and dependencies. One developer cut startup time by 4.5x, but most people can't locate bottlenecks and just tolerate the lag.

Solution

A cross-platform CLI profiler that automatically measures time distribution during command startup, offers actionable optimization suggestions (lazy loading, caching, reducing deps), and supports one-click fixes.

Users

Heavy CLI users, developers, DevOps engineers.

MVP

Measure any command's startup time with flame graphs; built-in rule library for common CLIs (npm, yarn, git); one-click apply optimization suggestions; before/after performance report.

Revenue

Open-core with paid team edition (centralized optimization policies, CI integration), one-time license or annual subscription.

Why now

AI coding agents invoke CLIs frequently; startup latency directly impacts dev efficiency, yet no dedicated tool exists.
