Keploy runs natively on macOS (Apple Silicon / arm64) and Windows (x86‑64) — neither has eBPF, so it intercepts traffic in userspace on both, and neither needs `sudo` or Administrator. Docker, Lima (macOS) and WSL (Windows) remain supported alternatives, and are still the route on Windows/ARM. On an Intel Mac use Lima: the Docker route on macOS still runs the native CLI on the host, so it is Apple Silicon only too.

-Keploy uses eBPF to intercept API calls on network layer and generates test cases and mocks/stubs. By default, the one-click install command below installs the **Keploy Community Edition**. Your plan (Community, Pro, or Enterprise) is determined after you log in.
+Keploy intercepts your application's API calls and turns them into test cases and mocks. The one command below installs it on **Linux, macOS and Windows** alike — how it intercepts differs, but what you run does not:
+
+- **Linux** — eBPF in the kernel, so `keploy record`/`keploy test` need root.
+- **macOS** (Apple Silicon) and **Windows** (x86‑64) — userspace interception. No VM, no Docker, no `sudo` and no Administrator.
+
+Docker, Lima and WSL remain supported alternatives, and are the route on an Intel Mac or Windows/ARM — but on a supported machine you do not need any of them.

+By default this installs the **Keploy Community Edition**. Your plan (Community, Pro, or Enterprise) is determined after you log in.
