Access full-fidelity observability data instantly for 12 months

Always Hot Data

Every byte of telemetry is instantly queryable — no rehydration, no cold tiers, no waiting.

Long-Term Retention

12 months of retention included out of the box. Keep your data as long as you need it.

Full Fidelity, Full Coverage

No sampling, no aggregation, no data loss. Every log, trace, and metric stored exactly as received.

Transparent Usage & Controls

See exactly what you're ingesting and what it costs. Set quotas, alerts, and exclusion filters in seconds.

Fast at Large Scales

Sub-second queries across petabytes of data. Purpose-built indexing that scales with your growth.

Always Parsed & Searchable

At ingestion, Bronto parses your logs using known formats or AI — so every field is structured and instantly searchable.

Integrations

Step 2

Auto-parsed & structured

Bronto detects data types and parses logs on ingest. No grok or regex rules needed. With AI parsing, even unmatched formats are analyzed and structured automatically.

Step 3

Use a library of dashboards, monitors, and search filters

Start fast with pre-built templates for common data shapes. Visualize, search, and get alerts on your data on Day 1.

Step 4

Get answers instantly

Query terabytes of data in sub-seconds using SQL. Correlate logs-metrics-traces across any time frame. Identify patterns and anomalies and let AI find the answers.

Long-term Data Retention

Keep more data with Bronto to surface deeper insights

Traditional observability tools like Datadog force teams into workarounds because ingestion and indexing prices are so high. Then, within 30 days, that data isn't searchable. With Bronto, you keep all of your data instantly searchable for a full year. Pricing is predictable and easy to understand.

100x

More searchable data per dollar spent

One simple price across every signal: $0.10 per GB ingested, $1.00 per TB searched, and 12 months of always-hot retention by default. No sampling, no rehydration, no surprise bills.

Error Pinpointing

Errored spans are highlighted and surfaced in the waterfall so you can spot problems at a glance.

Filter Traces with SQL

Query and filter your traces with the same familiar SQL you use for logs in Bronto.

Sort & Filter by Errors or Latency

Rank every operation across services by error rate or p50/p95 latency to find the worst offenders instantly.

Every Span, Rich with Detail

Inspect span details, event attributes, and full span attributes for any request, then jump straight into the correlated logs.

High-Cardinality Support

Store millions of unique tag combinations without performance loss.

12-Month Retention

Every metric kept hot and queryable for a full year.

Infrastructure Metrics

CPU, memory, disk, network — collected and correlated automatically.

Filter Metrics with SQL

Across the entire platform — including metrics — use familiar SQL to slice and filter your data with autocomplete on every tag.

Save to Dashboard or Alert

Turn any metric into a dashboard widget or promote it straight into a monitor — one click, no rebuilding the query.

Dashboard Templates

Bronto recognises known formats — Kafka, OTel host metrics, and more — and builds a ready-to-use dashboard from your metrics in seconds.

Log-Based Metrics

Visualise petabytes of log data instantly — turn any query into a live chart with no pre-aggregation required.

SQL Filtering at Scale

Slice and filter every widget on a dashboard with blazing-fast SQL, even across massive datasets.

Build Widgets with Natural Language

Just describe what you want to see and Bronto figures out the rest — no query language required.

Petabyte-Scale Visuals

Charts render in seconds, even over massive data volumes.

Shared & Private Views

Collaborate with your team or keep personal dashboards private.

Get the Full Picture

One-year retention by default — query long time ranges at a fraction of the cost.

Metric & Log Alerts

Alert on any metric threshold or log pattern match.

AI Investigation Reports

Templates Based on Your Data

Bronto detects the data formats you're sending and recommends ready-to-add monitor templates tailored to what you actually have.

Multi-Channel Delivery

Route alerts to Slack, email, or webhooks.

Thresholds & Change Detection

Alert on fixed thresholds or let Bronto flag statistically significant deviations from the baseline using Z-score change detection.

Build Monitors with a Prompt

Describe the alert you want in plain English and Bronto builds the monitor for you — no query syntax required.

Universal Ingestion

OpenTelemetry native and more — all supported. Just paste your config in and Bronto will convert it. No vendor lock-in.

Usage Explorer

The Search & Ingestion Explorer lets you drill down into exactly how your platform is being used — by whom, on what data, and at what volume.

Usage Alerts

Set thresholds on ingestion and search volume — get notified the moment usage crosses your limits.

Auto-Parsing

Logs are parsed at ingestion using known formats or AI.

Manage Tags & Teams

Tag every dataset and assign owners so teams can organise, filter, and govern their telemetry at scale.

Value Attribution

See which datasets are pulling their weight — and which ones are sitting unused — so you can attribute value to every TB ingested.

Agentic Observability

Bronto is designed for MCP & agentic workflows

Our API-first approach makes it easy to work with your data in any way you want. With Bronto, you have 12 months of full-fidelity data available instantly for your engineers and agents to expedite troubleshooting.

Building out the full observability suite for the AI era

APM on OpenTelemetry

Bronto keeps every trace, unsampled, for twelve months. Rate, errors and duration appear per operation with nothing to configure. Any span opens its logs in one click. eBPF instruments your services with no code change.

Real User Monitoring (RUM)

Connect Vercel projects from the Vercel Marketplace and get Core Web Vitals dashboards built in. iOS apps send real user data through the OpenTelemetry Swift SDK. Browser monitoring for any web app, linked to backend traces that served each page, is coming in Q4.

Terraform

Deploy Bronto ingestion on AWS and Azure from our Terraform modules, and script monitors, dashboards and alert routing through the API today. A Terraform provider for managing them from your repository is coming in Q4.

Service Level Objectives (SLOs)

Bronto scans your traces and automatically nominates SLO candidates. New SLOs are useful on day one, backfilled with existing spans in Bronto. Track error budgets over time and get notified at 80% of budget and at exhaustion.

Coming Q4

Service Registry

A service catalog that builds itself. Every service that sends traces appears with its traffic, errors and latency, on a list and on a map of how services call each other, with nothing to register and nothing to maintain. Your agents get the same list over MCP.

Coming Q4

Bring Evals into Bronto

Send evaluation scores as OpenTelemetry evaluation events, tied to the spans they judge, straight from Pydantic Evals, OpenLIT or your own eval harness. Chart them beside cost, latency and errors, and alert when quality drops.

Sub-second Search

Get results faster with instant search across TBs

At high volumes, traditional observability tool start to slow down. Queries can run for hours just to lead to timeouts. Bronto was designed to operate at petabyte scale, enabling deeper analysis at sub-second speed.

Find exactly what you need instantly

Bronto uses automatic indexing, Bloom filters, and custom search algorithms to run queries across TBs instantly. Slow search shouldn't leave you hanging during an outage when you need answers fast.
