Hey everyone,
I m currently building a small SaaS product, and I started thinking seriously about monitoring.
Most tools (Datadog, New Relic, etc.) feel built for larger teams.
Powerful, yes but also complex and expensive.
So I m curious:
What do you actually monitor in your small or solo SaaS?
Do you track uptime only?
Do you track latency?
Do you rely on logs?
At what point does monitoring start feeling like overkill?
I m trying to understand what is truly essential vs. what is just enterprise noise .
Not selling anything just genuinely curious how other indie builders approach this.
Would love to hear your setups.

Thanks @morajabi for the LED code! Now, when you press Capslock, the LED will also toggle on and off.

It's a really brittle implementation right now and can easily de-sync. It assumes that you start muted and then, when you press Caps Lock, you un-mute. To switch the toggle, simply double tap Caps Lock.

I could imagine building out a series of checks to try and sync up Caps Lock, the Caps Lock LED with mute function. First, I wanted to ship a really simple version to see what it feels like. Try out the new app and let me know if the LED is an improvement!

Hey PH

We just sold $300k+ in 60 days with @Pretty Prompt through a lifetime deal on AppSumo.

This shows you can build a company your way.
