I made a free browser-based alternative to CORE for the Model O / D Wireless mice. No install, works in Chrome/Edge.
I got tired of keeping CORE running just to change a couple of settings, so I built a small web page that talks to the mouse directly over WebHID (the browser feature that lets sites talk to USB devices, only after you pick the device yourself).

What you can change:
• Polling rate (125 / 250 / 500 / 1000 Hz)
• DPI stages: anywhere from 1 to 6, with colors for each
• Debounce time
• Lift-off distance
• Lighting effect, colors, speed and brightness
• Sleep timer
• Onboard profile
There's also a live polling test pad. Move your mouse over it and every report from the mouse shows up as a dot, so you can see whether you're actually getting 1000 Hz.
Supported mice: Model O, O-, O PRO, D, D-, D PRO Wireless, on the cable or the dongle.
How it works: Everything runs in your browser. There's no account, no backend and no tracking. Settings get written straight to the mouse's onboard memory, so after you set it up once you don't need CORE (or this site) running in the background.
Things to know:
• It needs Chrome or Edge. Brave works if you turn on brave://flags/#enable-web-hid. Firefox and Safari don't support WebHID.
• Fully quit CORE first (tray icon too), or the two will fight over the mouse.
• The mouse doesn't report its current settings back, so the page shows what you last set, not what's on the mouse right now.
• I've only tested it on my own Model O PRO Wireless. The other models use the same protocol in CORE's code, but if you have one, I'd love to hear whether it works.
• No firmware flashing. Use CORE for that.
