Embrace - Crashlytics + Fullstory on steroids

Embrace helps mobile devs find every error, recreate every session on command, and fix bugs in minutes. Think of those freezes during startup, broken purchases & unsolved crashes. Wish, Goat & OkCupid solve all of these with Embrace and debug so much faster.

Hi everyone! Much thanks, Kat, for hunting and appreciate the support of YC! My name is Eric, co-founder of Embrace and previously of Scopely (Walking Dead, Yahtzee, Star Trek). Embrace was founded to improve every user’s mobile experience whether our own or mobile developers. When building games, I was the 'best' finder of bugs (as CxOs and PMs often are and to the chagrin of the mobile team). Outside of crashes, there was no feedback loop. Feature analytics and logging tools didn’t help. What I wanted was to look myself up on command and reproduce what occurred. Reproducing on mobile is impossible. Embrace tracks every user and every session so that you can recreate any session, good or bad. Think of us as user flows + logging + monitoring in one session visualized, along with a set of easy-to-use tools to proactively find every type of error. Upon implementing in 15 mins, developers always find unknown errors upon going live, and save over 40% of their time diagnosing and fixing bugs. We are lucky to have 30+ customers already, including Wish (solved their 2nd biggest crash), OkCupid (fixed an unknown bootstrap error), and Headspace (found a critical network call that should have fired but didn't - their server tools were blind). Looking forward to everyone’s feedback! Thank you!

@eric_futoran Much love for Embrace! Really excited for people to see all that we have to offer!
Jason Yeh
I dunno, @eric_futoran ...Crashlytics reports give us plenty of info to address our mobile bugs quickly ...said no one ever. Really excited for this. Congrats to you and your team!
Kohei Hisakuni
@jayyeh Haha had me in the first half. Thanks Jason!
Fredric Newberg
@jayyeh yeah, there are a lot of devs who are happy that they have more to work with now than just an unhelpful stack trace that somebody handed them, thinking that's all they need to fix the problem
Juan Carrillo
@jayyeh We also track things that you don't get in Crashlytics. We allow you to monitor 3rd party network requests that your backend team just simply doesn't have access to. This is more than just a crash reporting tool. It's a way to know what your app is doing once you release it into the wild.

It's an awesome product with powerful visibility and monitoring tools for mobile developers. It helped me to figure out some rare and hard to reproduce issues and errors in the wild. Impressed with how fast the data become available compared to other tools I experienced. Congrats to @eric_futoran and the team, also thanks for the friendly and helpful support!
