For small teams
Observability for small teams and solo developers
You want to know what your app is doing - how often, how fast, how many - without running a monitoring stack or learning a pricing model. Send numbers, logs and traces to one place, and pay only for what you use.
Start without paying
You start with 10,000 free credits, and you can try it with no account at all: choose "Continue as guest" (1,000 credits; a guest account is deleted, with everything in it, after 24 hours).
Nothing to run
- No agent or SDK - one HTTP request from any language, a cron job or a serverless function
- No servers to look after: it is hosted
- One account, no per-seat charges
A cost you control
You buy credits up front, so the bill can never be more than you chose to buy. If they run out, your metrics pause and new logs and traces are refused until you buy more - and nothing is ever charged to your card automatically.
What it is - and is not
Metrics rolled up per minute, hour, day, month and year; logs with search and levels; traces with flame charts; optional distinct counts. Email and webhook alerts on metrics (not yet on logs or traces), no tags on metrics, and nothing collected automatically - you send what you want to measure.
Questions, answered
What is Easy Observability?
A hosted service for metrics, logs and traces. You send data to a plain REST API with an API key - there is no agent or app to install - and see it in dashboards, a searchable log view and trace flame charts.
How much does it cost?
There are no per-host, per-seat or per-gigabyte charges, and you start with 10,000 free credits. Add more credits any time as necessary, and use the pricing calculator to plan ahead. Each level of a metric costs 15 to 75 credits a month at its default retention (a day level is the cheapest, a minute level the dearest), and 500 logs, or 250 traces, kept for a day cost 1 credit.
What do I get free?
10,000 credits when you sign up (1,000 for a guest account, which can't buy more). For example, 10,000 credits covers 5,000,000 logs, or 2,500,000 traces, or 10 metrics kept down to the minute for 200 days.
