The indie hacker monitoring blind spot

The most common view: "I'll add monitoring when I have real users." But by the time you have users, you've already shipped bugs that are silently driving them away.

What you're actually missing

  • Silent churn drivers — bugs that make users give up without saying anything
  • Browser-specific failures — your app might be broken for all Safari users and you have no idea
  • The "first run" bug — new user experience often has bugs that returning users (like you) never encounter
  • API edge case failures — your payment or email integration fails for specific inputs

The ROI calculation

ProdFix free tier costs $0. If it helps you find one bug that was causing 5% of users to churn early, and your ARPU is $20/mo, preventing that from affecting 10 users is $200/mo in saved MRR. The math is obvious.

The indie-specific feature: multi-project view

Unlike Sentry (which charges per project), ProdFix lets you monitor multiple projects on one plan. Perfect for the typical indie hacker who runs 3-5 projects simultaneously.

Stop flying blind in production.

ProdFix gives you error monitoring, performance tracking, security alerts, and AI-powered fixes — built for solo founders and vibe coders. One SDK, 2-minute setup.
