LogSnag
A tool that sends a push notification to your phone whenever a business event fires, such as a signup, payment, or cancellation.
What it actually does
LogSnag is event tracking for business milestones, not technical monitoring. You send one HTTP call per event and it pushes a notification to your phone and a shared feed, so you get a real-time notification of the event.
Setup is minutes from a Next.js API route or a Supabase function, and the free plan covers 2,500 events/mo with 3 seats. Tiers scale by event volume with unlimited seats on paid plans.
It does not capture errors, run uptime checks, or search logs, so it does not replace a monitoring tool. It is a supplementary notification layer alongside a real monitoring tool like Sentry, Axiom, or an uptime checker.

- Sends phone push notifications for business events like signups, payments, and cancellations
- Setup is one HTTP call per event, integratable from a Next.js route or Supabase function in minutes
- The free 2,500 events/mo is enough when you only track meaningful business events, not raw logs
- It is event tracking, not monitoring: no error capture, uptime checks, or log search, so it does not replace Sentry or Axiom
- PostHog's free tier tracks far more events and adds analytics and errors, so LogSnag loses on raw free volume
- No published overage policy, so you cannot predict what happens the month you cross 2,500 events beyond being pushed to the $16/mo plan
