Axiom

What is Axiom?

Axiom is a serverless log management platform built around ingesting everything without requiring you to decide upfront what's worth keeping. Instead of sampling logs to control cost, it charges per GB ingested and leans on efficient storage and query design to keep that affordable, which changes the tradeoff from "what do I throw away" to "what do I query."

Key features

• No-sampling ingestion, so debugging a rare edge case doesn't depend on whether that specific log line survived a sampling filter
• APL (Axiom Processing Language) for querying, closer to a real query language than keyword log search
• Dashboards and alerting built directly on top of ingested log data
• Datasets model that scales to high-cardinality, high-volume logging without a separate indexing step to manage
• Integrations for common log shippers and frameworks, including Vercel, Next.js, and OpenTelemetry

Who it's for

Good fit if you've been burned by sampled logs missing the exact request you needed to debug, or you want one place for logs without managing your own ingestion pipeline. Overkill for a small app generating a trivial amount of log volume.

Pricing

Usage-based, billed by data ingested, with a free tier for low volume. Check the site for current limits.
