Fix Problems Without the Guesswork#
Things break. Audio stops working, Wi-Fi drops, displays glitch. On Windows®, you’d search online and hope for the best. On Linux, the answers are usually buried in forum posts full of terminal commands that don’t make sense if you’re not an expert.
Medbay fixes that. It diagnoses problems on your Linux machine and walks you through the fix, step by step. No expertise required.
How It Works#
Medbay gives you two ways to find a fix:
- Browse by category. Pick what’s broken (audio, Wi-Fi, display, etc.), narrow it down (“No sound from speakers”), and Medbay walks you through the solution.
- Describe the problem. Just type what’s wrong in your own words. Medbay uses a local AI to understand what you’re describing and finds the right fix.
Every fix in Medbay is written and tested by our team. The AI can only recommend fixes and add them to your queue. It cannot run anything on its own and it never makes up commands. You review what’s been recommended, approve what you want to run, and only then does it execute.
What Medbay Can Fix#
- Audio: Sound not working, crackling, or audio service issues
- Wi-Fi and Networking: Connection drops, slow Wi-Fi, DNS problems
- Display and Graphics: Screen glitches, tearing, driver issues
- System Cleanup: Free up disk space by clearing old packages, unused apps, and bloated log files
Key Capabilities#
- System Health Check: Run a quick diagnostic scan to see what’s healthy, what’s degraded, and what needs attention.
- Plain Language Input: Describe what’s wrong in your own words. No technical knowledge needed.
- Tested Fixes: Every fix is hand-written, tested, and reviewed by our team. No guesswork, no random scripts from the internet.
- You Stay in Control: Every proposed fix is shown to you before it runs. Nothing happens without your approval.
- Works Offline: Everything runs locally on your machine. No internet connection required.
Who Is This For?#
- New Linux users (especially recent Windows switchers) who just want a problem fixed and don’t want to search the internet only to find answers full of unknown terminal commands
- Non-technical users who just want their computer fixed without dropping to the command line
- The family tech-support person who’d like a hand instead of handling every “it’s broken again” call themselves
- Anyone tired of guesswork who wants curated fixes written and tested by real people, not random terminal commands copied off the internet
Pricing#
Medbay is a one-time purchase. You get the full library of tested fixes as it exists today, and it’s yours to keep for good.
Linux never stops changing, though, so our team keeps writing new fixes. Defenestra Care is an optional subscription that delivers them to you: while subscribed, every new fix gets added to your app automatically. Cancel whenever you like and you keep every fix you received while subscribed, nothing is taken away. Resubscribe later and you catch up to the latest fixes.
Pricing details coming soon.
