OBSESC
Independent

Built from first principles, focused on a single problem: long-term observability data.

Customer controlled

Runs entirely in your AWS account. Your data, your infrastructure, your decisions.

Practical

Designed to work with your existing tools and workflows, not replace them.

Long-term

We build for durability — for our customers, and for the data they rely on.

Our mission

Keep every log.
For as long as it matters.

Modern systems generate an extraordinary amount of observability data, but most of it is thrown away. We believe that complete history should be accessible, affordable and under your control.

OBSESC makes that possible by taking a different approach: keeping every event, and giving you fast, practical ways to explore years of history — all within your own infrastructure.

Our values
Your data stays yours

We do not receive, store or process your telemetry. You control your environment, your keys and your data.

Technical integrity

We prefer clear trade-offs over hidden limitations. We are honest about what OBSESC does and doesn't do.

Solve real problems

We focus on problems that matter, not features for their own sake.

Long-term thinking

We build for a more resilient, transparent and understandable internet.

Founder

A personal mission.

I started OBSESC because I kept seeing the same pattern: critical information lost to short retention windows, not because it wasn’t valuable, but because keeping it was too expensive. I wanted to build a different option — one that keeps everything, in your infrastructure, and makes it genuinely useful.

OBSESC is currently a one-person company. I’m focused on building a product that earns the trust of engineers and security teams, and on working with the first teams who share this vision.
