    superlog▲497

    Hey HN, we’re Nico and Arseniy, co-founders of Superlog (https://superlog.sh). We're building a self-installing, self healing observability tool meant not to be opened. It has a wizard that daily sets up proper logging and an agent that investigates errors and opens PRs. Super short demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xFhU9Mk247M. In our earlier startups, we tried Sentry, Datadog, Grafana, Dash0, and nothing was good enough. Proper telemetry and alerting still requires a ton of manual setup. We struggled with adding good logs, so debugging was tough, especially as…

    Hi Hacker News! Shahar and Tal from Keep here. A few months ago, we introduced here at HN (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34806482) Keep as an “open source alerting CLI” and got some interesting feedback - mainly around UI, automation, and supporting more tools. We were VERY early back then, and we understood that although the current DX around creating alerts is not great, it's not that critical and developers don’t need another tool just for that. But we did find something else. While talking to developers and devops, we found that a lot of companies use many tools…

    Over the past few months, we've been building Prism; a fast, developer-first observability UI that's deeply integrated with our open-source database, Parseable. Prism is designed for engineers who debug distributed systems, sometimes at odd hours, and need answers right now, without having to deal with five different tools. Backstory: We spoke to dozens of observability practitioners in large enterprises. Across the board, we heard two things: (1)The RoI on observability tools is hard to justify. (2)OSS leads to tool sprawl, metrics in Grafana, logs in ELK, traces… somewhere. We wanted a…

    Spanly▲77

    Hi HN, I'm Tim, solo founder of Spanly (https://spanly.com). I spent the last year working on MCP gateways, and debugging them with nothing better than HTTP-level APM was painful. Spanly runs its own MCP server and monitors it with itself, so I've been the first user of everything below. Spanly is observability for MCP servers, the protocol that lets agents like Claude and Cursor call your product's tools. It's a sidecar proxy, so it works with any language and requires zero code changes. Live demo (no signup): https://app.spanly.com/share/demo Sidecar source…

    Hey HN! Jaka here, solo founder of Assertly (https://www.assertly.com). Assertly is a monitoring tool for continuous infosec, IT, compliance and DevOps regression testing. It enables teams to automate periodic checks using JavaScript. Before Assertly, I was the CTO of Celtra (https://celtra.com), a B2B SaaS company, for over 10 years, from “git init” to 250 people and the company’s sale to private equity. I was primarily responsible for product strategy, engineering, QA, DevOps, but also for IT and InfoSec. I found that ensuring security, integrity, privacy, and…

    Hello HN! Parth, and Shardul here. We have been building unlogged.io for the last 21 months. We started as a time travel debugger and pivoted to record and replay with assertions, mocking, and code coverage. You can save the replays in the form of a JSON and commit them to your git. Both Parth and I come from an e-commerce/payments background where production bugs meant heavy financial losses. Big billion days/Black Friday sales meant months of code freezes with low productivity. Before committing the code, we wanted to replay production traffic and know the breaking changes right…

    Hi Hacker News! We're Samrose and Shaeq from Apptrail (https://apptrail.com). We let B2B SaaS companies easily add customer-facing audit trails to their products. It's currently too hard to build and consume SaaS audit logs. Organizations use audit logs to access and monitor the activity coming from their SaaS tools for security and compliance reasons. For example, a security admin at an enterprise company would use Slack audit logs to see messages sent and what devices and IP addresses they were sent from. Many SaaS companies don’t offer audit trails to their customers, which…

    Hi, Wanted to share something I've been working on for over a year. AuditBadger is a compliance management platform that uses AI to write policies (there are underlying "templates" with basic requirements), rewrite controls (or trust service criterions) to match the company context, help figure out your own controls, does initial risk assessment, and business continuity planning (which at least gives you an example of how the process should look like). Fun fact - I wanted to share this a year ago, but then I spotted something similar here. The most common comment was about lacking the SOC 2…

    Today I received the official confirmation: Claim Watch just won the Best Product Award at the Half Baked x Bolt Founder Hackathon. There were 20,000+ participants globally. I made the TOP 5, and then 130,000 people voted for Claim Watch to win first place ($7,500 prize). First-week impact: 1,000+ active users 1,000+ settlements identified $800k+ recovered for people I built this during the hackathon, and now it seems to be turning into a real product. Happy to answer questions about the tech, stack, or how the system works.

    I built this after one too many 3 AM wake-ups due to API outages. Existing solutions felt overpriced and overcomplicated for my small-scale needs. Key features: Simple, GitHub-inspired dashboard Free tier: 5-minute checks, email alerts, 30-day retention Premium tier: 1-minute checks, SMS alerts, unlimited retention Significantly more affordable than enterprise solutions Tech stack: Next.js frontend, Node.js backend, MongoDB, Stripe for payments. This is my attempt to solve the "sleep vs. downtime" dilemma for fellow indie hackers. I'd appreciate any feedback or feature suggestions. What's…
