What is Eagle 🦅?

It's a new integrated tool that helps identify the best way to run a software. It does multi-stage analysis on your executables, scanning for frameworks, runtimes and potential issues like Anti-cheat or common protections.

Instead of just guessing, Eagle performs a deep scan of the binary, its neighbors and extract assets in case of an installer or a known format, like Electron's Asar files, to understand what's inside, providing insights and suggests the dependencies and optimizations. We also made it fully transparent: for every detection, Eagle shows you the "Source" and the "Context" (the exact technical data found), so you know exactly why it's recommending a specific configuration.
