Announcing Frigate.

Frigate is an experimental Electrum server testing efficient Silent Payments scanning with ephemeral client keys.

Note that Frigate is currently a proof of concept for supporting Silent Payments on Electrum servers, and not a replacement for Electrs, Fulcrum etc.

If you are a developer interested in exploring Silent Payments scanning, check out https://github.com/sparrowwallet/frigate

I’m aware. Unfortunately it’s almost impossible to choose an English name which is not already used in a software project somewhere.

I don't think thats an issue. I think there are 30 projects named Heimdall that are not Kerberos Domain controller software and libraries.

I'd say the issue is your logo is almost the same. I was confused why my NVR software was now doing payments.
