LightTrace is a self-hosted error tracker that speaks Sentry's protocol. Existing Sentry SDKs point at it without any change to the application code around them.
Every RoboMiri app reports into it, which is the reason it exists: crash data from a period tracker and a reading app should not reach a third-party vendor. It lands on our own machine, in the EU, instead.
It keeps the context around a crash rather than only the stack trace, which is usually the difference between reproducing a bug and guessing at it.

Common questions
Is LightTrace something I can buy?
Not today. It is internal infrastructure that runs the rest of the portfolio, listed here because it is part of the work rather than as a product.
Does it work with existing Sentry SDKs?
Yes, unchanged. It is Sentry-compatible, so pointing an SDK at it is a configuration change and nothing more.
Where does the crash data go?
Onto our own self-hosted infrastructure in the European Union. It does not reach a third-party vendor.
