What are we doing with the money?

We aim to hire up to 10 new people to widen our product offering and to educate the general public about the benefits of Dashbird and serverless computing in general. We are planning to build out integrations for event sources and to cover all major cloud providers.

Our ambition is to be the best serverless monitoring and debugging platform that offers a lot of value to all the companies that are building serverless systems. We also want to push the serverless movement forward because we believe it will be the next major paradigm shift in cloud computing.

Shout-out to our investors

We are also very grateful to work closely together with such a dream-team of investors: Passion CapitalIcebreaker FundRagnar SassMartin Tajur, and Andrus Purde. We have already gotten lots of great advice, contacts, and support from all of them and hope to see great co-operation in the future as well. Thank you all for believing in us and making a bet on Dashbird!

What is serverless?

Serverless computing is a cloud-computing execution model in which the cloud provider dynamically manages the allocation of machine resources. Pricing is based on the actual amount of resources consumed by an application, rather than on pre-purchased units of capacity.

What is Dashbird?

Dashbird is a serverless monitoring and debugging platform that helps engineers get a centralized overview of all of their lambda functions and increases the reliability of their applications through error tracking.

Made by developers for developers

Dashbird was born out of our own need for an enhanced serverless debugging and monitoring tool, and we take pride in being developers.

What our customers say

Dashbird gives us a simple and easy to use tool to have peace of mind and know that all of our Serverless functions are running correctly. We are instantly aware now if there’s a problem. We love the fact that we have enough information in the Slack notification itself to take appropriate action immediately and know exactly where the issue occurred.

Thanks to Dashbird the time to discover the occurrence of an issue reduced from 2-4 hours to a matter of seconds or minutes. It also means that hundreds of dollars are saved every month.

Great onboarding: it takes just a couple of minutes to connect an AWS account to an organization in Dashbird. The UI is clean and gives a good overview of what is happening with the Lambdas and API Gateways in the account.

I mean, it is just extremely time-saving. It’s so efficient! I don’t think it’s an exaggeration or dramatic to say that Dashbird has been a lifesaver for us.

Dashbird provides an easier interface to monitor and debug problems with our Lambdas. Relevant logs are simple to find and view. Dashbird’s support has been good, and they take product suggestions with grace.

Great UI. Easy to navigate through CloudWatch logs. Simple setup.

Dashbird helped us refine the size of our Lambdas, resulting in significantly reduced costs. We have Dashbird alert us in seconds via email when any of our functions behaves abnormally. Their app immediately makes the cause and severity of errors obvious.
