Extra Special Tracker (EST)
EST (Extra Special Tracker) is Extra Special Studio’s free cross-platform desktop tool for mod authors and small studios. Track CurseForge and Modrinth download totals over time, sync GitHub issues, and pull Modrinth notifications into one Inbox. CurseForge private messages are opened via the official Authors console (no public PM API). Tokens use OS encryption (DPAPI / Keychain / libsecret). Download from GitHub Releases — Windows installer, Linux .rpm / .deb / AppImage, macOS .dmg — no license key required.

Extra Special Studio is funded in part by optional ads on this website — not inside the EST app. Support the studio if you find EST useful.
