Observability with a brain built in
Self-hosted observability, written end-to-end in Rust, with an analytical brain on board — automated RCA, anomaly detection and a local LLM. Your data stays in your bucket, and your bill never depends on telemetry volume.
Every role sees what matters to them — from the same source of truth.
Why Observ
Same DNA as the best. Inverted promise.
OpenTelemetry, DataFusion, Arrow, object storage, SQL — the modern observability stack is commoditizing. So we compete where it matters: distribution model, cost at scale and data sovereignty.
No observability tax
Billed per cluster, predictable — never per record, per GB or per seat. The bill that explodes at scale stops here.
Your data never leaves
The bucket is the source of truth, on your own object storage. Your telemetry never leaves your infrastructure.
Built-in intelligence
RCA, anomaly detection and a local LLM chat run inside your infra — intelligence included, not metered per token.
Free, unlimited, self-hosted
The Community tier is genuinely unlimited: volume and retention included, because it's your S3 — not ours.
Built to last
Technology you can trust
European & independent
Built and hosted in Europe. No dependency on US hyperscalers. Your data sovereignty is non-negotiable.
OpenTelemetry, end to end
Native OTLP ingestion and data in your own object storage. Any OTLP endpoint works — zero lock-in, easy migration.
Deploy anywhere
A single multi-role Rust binary runs on bare metal, VMs, Kubernetes, or your laptop. Minimal resources, maximum flexibility.
Simple pricing
Pay per cluster. Never per volume.
No observability tax. Your bill is decoupled from telemetry volume, retention and seats — they all live on your object storage. You pay for a cluster, not for your traffic.

The observability tax, removed
Usage-based SaaS bills per record or per GB — the cost climbs with every log you ship. Observ stays flat: volume never moves the bill.
| Telemetry | Usage-based SaaS | Observ |
|---|---|---|
Homelab — ~10M records/mo Evaluation, dev, side projects | Free tier limits, then overage | Free |
Growing — ~1B records/mo One production environment | Hundreds–thousands €/mo, climbing with volume | From 590 €/mo per cluster |
At scale — 10B+ records/mo Multi-environment, long retention | Tens of thousands €/mo — the tax | Flat per cluster — volume doesn't count |
+ your own object storage (which you control — and where your data stays)

Unlimited volume. Unlimited retention. Unlimited seats.
They run on your object storage, not ours — so your bill never moves because you ingested more logs or added a teammate. That's the whole point.
