A gutter protection system configured for engagement with a rain gutter is provided. The gutter protection system includes a bracket configured for attachment to a first portion of the rain gutter. The bracket has a first arm and a second arm, each forming a channel. A base member has a first end configured for insertion into the channel formed by the first arm or the second arm of the bracket. The base member has an opposing second end configured for engagement with a second portion of the rain gutter. The base member further includes an intermediate segment extending from the first end to the second end. The intermediate segment includes a plurality of apertures. A permeable member is seated against an upper surface of the base member and is configured to facilitate the flow of water through the gutter protection system and into the rain gutter.

A modular platform for configuring gutter guard systems is disclosed and claimed herein. Such gutter guard systems are designed and arranged to be positioned across the opening of a rain gutter to prevent debris from entering the rain gutter. The modular platform includes a number of interchangeable components. Select interchangeable components can be assembled to form a gutter guard system for use with a specific rain gutter based on the rain gutter's style, size, color and the mechanism used to secure the rain gutter to a structure and/or roofline. In one embodiment, the components of a modular platform for configuring gutter guard systems include a number of main bodies, a front receiver, a number of rear receivers, a number of screens, and a clip.
