Overview

Airbrake is an error and performance monitoring platform for software teams, providing real-time bug detection, error grouping, and deployment tracking. The company is headquartered in Austin, Texas, and was acquired by observability company LogicMonitor in February 2021, continuing to operate as part of LogicMonitor's product lineup.

Key Features

Core capabilities include intelligent error grouping that pinpoints the exact line of code causing an issue, a lightweight APM layer for tracking HTTP performance and user satisfaction, and deployment tracking that correlates errors with specific releases. Airbrake ships SDKs for over 20 languages and frameworks and uses an agentless, SDK-based architecture.

Pricing Overview

Airbrake's published plans include Dev, Basic, and Pro tiers priced monthly (with a 10% discount for annual billing), differentiated by user and team counts. Separately, error monitoring is also sold in volume-based tiers ranging from 25,000 to 5 million errors per month. Performance monitoring is billed separately from error monitoring.
