Features
Read full description

ReadLogs turns cryptic system logs into plain English. Paste, upload, or scan a log — nginx 503s, Cisco BGP flaps, Python tracebacks, Kubernetes CrashLoopBackOff, Windows Event IDs. In seconds you get: • A summary of what's happening • The most likely root cause • Severity rating with confidence score • Concrete suggested fixes you can act on • Critical/warning/info highlighting on every line Built for IT support, junior sysadmins, network engineers, and DevOps teams who'd rather solve a problem than spend an hour Googling its symptoms. Privacy-first: every log is scrubbed of API keys, JWTs, AWS keys, emails, and internal IPs before it ever leaves your device. Your logs are never stored on our servers. Pro unlocks unlimited daily analyses and integrations with CloudWatch, Datadog, and Splunk.
