The decision, in plain words

For a solo builder at 3,000 error events/month and a $50.00/mo budget for the monitoring platform slot, GlitchTip leads at 80% fit and $15.00/mo. The two rules doing the work: budget fit (~$15/mo is 30% of your $50/mo budget); free-tier runway (Free tier exists (1,000 events/month, unlimited projects and team members) — a cheap staging/dev lane even after you outgrow it).

Honest weak spot of the pick: growing — our estimate from ecosystem age, docs and hiring pool.

Generated from the calculation above — every number traces to the sourced data; nothing here is written by an AI making things up.

Why GlitchTip scores 80%

Budget fit (weight 30, our estimate) — ~$15/mo is 30% of your $50/mo budget+30

Batteries included (weight 12, our estimate) — Bundles uptime monitoring — fewer services to glue at team size 1+3

Exit cost (weight 4, our estimate) — Open source / self-hostable — you can take the whole pipeline with you+2.8

Ecosystem maturity (weight 8, our estimate) — growing — our estimate from ecosystem age, docs and hiring pool-1.6

Free-tier runway (weight 10, our estimate) — Free tier exists (1,000 events/month, unlimited projects and team members) — a cheap staging/dev lane even after you outgrow it+4
