Ensure every log message provides actionable insight

When a product breaks, your engineers look to log messages to understand why. Patchwork automatically upgrades logging code within your product to ensure your engineers are always provided with clear, actionable insight when it counts the most.

Consistent quality

Patchwork helps you define a consistent logging style guide and identifies non-compliances in your existing codebase.

An outage is the wrong time to discover that your log messages are incoherent.

Scale through automation

We automate the process of upgrading sub-standard logging code across your codebase, at scale.

That nightmare housekeeping effort that's always on next quarter's sprint, automated.

Clarity and conformity

Patchwork ensures new services adhere to your style guide, making clarity the new normal across your entire product.

Breathe. Now you’re logging the insight you’ll need in an incident, not “sevrer error.”

Our Team

Patchwork is built by engineers with deep experience across the entire software development lifecycle. We’ve spent our share of time on call and have a deep passion for improving quality in a domain–observability–where the focus is too often quantity.
