In their own words
Maple
Maple is an OpenTelemetry observability platform for distributed systems. It ingests traces, logs, and metrics and stores them in ClickHouse. Teams can inspect request spans, relate traces to logs and service data, search structured logs by severity, service, or attribute, and open a trace from a log. Metric tools include exploration, dashboards, service maps, and alerting. Browser session replay records clicks, routes, console lines, and failed requests, linking sessions to traces with a shared ID. Alerts can route to Slack, PagerDuty, Discord, Telegram, email, webhooks, and Hazel. A hosted MCP server and documented REST API support automation for telemetry search, error triage, dashboards, and alert rules. Maple offers cloud, self-hosted, and local options; Maple Local runs ingestion, an embedded database, query API, and dashboard in one binary without an account or cloud service. Self-hosted source is FSL-1.1 and converts to Apache 2.0 after two years. Startup costs $39 per month and includes 30-day retention. Maple Cloud offers US and EU regions, but the selected region cannot later be changed.
