Who built this and why

Hi, I'm Martti. I run a handful of services on Render and got tired of how expensive and overbuilt the popular log tools are for what I actually need: search the last few weeks, get pinged when something looks wrong, move on with my day.

Logtonic is the small, focused thing I wanted. It's not trying to be Datadog. No traces, no on-call rotations, no incident war rooms, no defining metrics just to get an alert.

It's free during the closed beta.
