About
JoyCheck is built by Taimoor Bamazai and Elites Algorithm Limited, a Dublin-based independent software studio. The tool is free, browser-based, and engineered with one rule: zero data leaves your machine. We make instrument-grade tools for gamers and modders, fast, honest, no tracking. JoyCheck is our first browser-native release.
JoyCheck reads any modern USB or Bluetooth controller through the W3C Gamepad API and shows you every button press, analog stick position, trigger pressure, and vibration motor state in real time. PS5 DualSense, PS4 DualShock 4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, Switch Pro, Joy-Con, if your browser can see it, JoyCheck reads it.
It exists because the alternatives either install desktop software, run analytics against your controller usage, or haven't been updated to compete in AI-engine search. JoyCheck does none of those. Run the tester, no signup, no download.
Taimoor Bamazai is the founder and CEO of Elites Algorithm Limited. Background: software engineering, browser-native tooling, and 10+ years building websites engineered to rank classically and earn citations from AI search engines (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, Google AI Overviews). taimoorbamazai.com
Elites Algorithm Limited is an independent studio registered in Dublin, Ireland (and operating an Islamabad-based engineering team). We build niche-specific browser tools, marketing sites, and SaaS products that rank for the right keywords and get cited by the right engines. elitesalgorithm.com
One-line manifesto: we build the tool we wished existed when we needed it. JoyCheck is the gamepad tester we wished was around when our own controllers started drifting.
Plain-language engineering posture:
"Across years of building browser-native tools, the lesson keeps repeating: the tools that earn long-term trust are the ones that ship zero tracking on the user-action data, publish their source for audit, and refuse to gate the basic functionality behind email capture. JoyCheck is built to that rule, deliberately and without exception."

JoyCheck is operated under Elites Algorithm Limited, a private company registered in the Republic of Ireland (Dublin). Engineering is split between Dublin and Islamabad. All controller data stays on your machine; nothing is logged or stored in either location.
The tester source will be published on GitHub so the no-data claim is line-by-line auditable. Until then, you can verify the privacy posture in 30 seconds: open DevTools, watch the Network tab, exercise the widget, count zero controller-state requests.
The core tester is permanently free, no ads, no email capture. A planned Pro tier ($5/month, late 2026) will add saved controller profiles, advanced DualSense metrics, multi-controller diff, and latency benchmarking, strictly additive, never gating basic diagnostics.
