Pay per bug, not per crash
Every plan is priced by new issues — distinct bugs — per month. A bad deploy that throws the same error two million times counts once. All plans work with the official Sentry SDKs: you only change the DSN.

What counts toward your plan
One unit you pay for, one safety net — and no surprises when you hit either.
New issues — the unit you pay for
An issue is one distinct bug. Events with the same fingerprint — the exception type plus your in-app stack frames, or a fingerprint you set yourself — are grouped into one issue. An issue counts once, in the calendar month (UTC) when it first appears. Repeats of a known bug, a resolved bug that comes back, and new events of older issues cost nothing extra.
Deleting or merging issues doesn't give quota back — the monthly counter only goes up.
Event ceiling — a safety net
Each plan also has a monthly ceiling on raw events. It is deliberately generous: it exists so that a runaway loop can't flood the storage, not to bill you per event.
One quota per account
All projects in an account share the plan's quota. Adding a project doesn't add quota, and the count of a deleted project stays with the account for that month.
At the limit we don't go blind
Past the quota, issues keep being grouped, counted and alerted on — you still see what breaks and how often. Only the full detail of individual events stops being stored. Far above the quota, at a multiple of it, ingestion pauses until the next month. Nothing is charged unless you have turned on overage yourself.
Unused quota carries over
From the Solo plan up, what you don't use in a month is added to the next one — from the previous month only, so you never have more than double your plan.
Spike protection
From the Team plan up, a sudden flood of events can be sampled: counts and alerts stay exact, but only a share of raw events is stored, so one bad deploy can't use up the month's ceiling.
Paid add-ons
Both are optional, switched on per account in the console and invoiced monthly together with your plan.
Keep events longer
Extend retention for the whole account. Cancel any time.
| Plan | Included | ×2 | ×3 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Solo | 30 days | 60 days +€4.50 per month | 90 days +€9 per month |
| Team | 90 days | 180 days +€14.50 per month | 270 days +€29 per month |
| Business | 180 days | 360 days +€64.50 per month | — |
| Scale | 180 days | 360 days +€149.50 per month | — |
The Free plan has no add-ons. A dash means the step would exceed the storage limit, so we don't sell it.
Retention tops out at 365 days — we do not sell days our storage will not keep.
Going over your quota
By default, past your quota we keep counting issues but stop storing event detail. Instead, you can let new issues through for €1 per 100 extra new issues.
- •Off by default — nothing is billed unless you turn it on.
- •You set a monthly cap. Above it we drop again, so the bill cannot surprise you.
- •Billed per new error, the same unit as your plan — not per event.
Example: 250 new issues over the quota are 3 started blocks of 100 → €3 that month.
Add-ons are invoiced manually — nothing is charged automatically.
OpenErrorAPI vs Sentry
Sentry is an excellent and much broader product. If error tracking is what you need, here is an honest side-by-side — including where Sentry is the better choice.
| Feature | OpenErrorAPI | Sentry |
|---|---|---|
| What you pay for | New issues — distinct bugs. Repeats of a known bug are free; raw events only have a generous ceiling. | Error events — every occurrence counts toward your volume. |
| Free plan | 50 new issues · 10,000 event ceiling · 14-day retention · 1 team member | 5,000 errors · 30-day lookback · 1 user |
| Paid plans start at | €9/mo (Solo) · Team €29/mo | $26/mo billed yearly or $29 monthly (Team) |
| Volume on the Team plan | 5,000 new issues + 750,000 event ceiling per month · Unlimited members | 50,000 errors per month · unlimited users |
| Retention | 14–180 days by plan, up to 360 days with the add-on | 30 days on the free plan, up to 90 days on Team and Business |
| Over the quota | Issues keep being counted and alerted on; only event detail pauses. Paid overage is opt-in, with a monthly cap you set. | Events over your quota are not accepted; extra volume comes from reserved volume or a pay-as-you-go budget. |
| Where your data lives | EU servers we run ourselves — accounts and events alike.* | US (Iowa) or EU (Frankfurt), chosen once when the organization is created; accounts, tokens and audit logs always stay in the US. |
| SDKs | The official Sentry SDKs — change only the DSN | The official Sentry SDKs |
| Product scope | Error tracking, release health, uptime & heartbeat monitors, status pages, user feedback | All of that, plus tracing, session replay, profiling, logs and more |
| AI & agents | AI root-cause analysis and search (monthly allowance, or unlimited with your own key); MCP server and scoped agent API on every plan | Seer AI debugging agent as a separate subscription (Team and up); MCP access |
* Optional AI features send the relevant error context to Anthropic (USA) — or to your own AI provider if you add your own API key. Privacy Policy

When Sentry is the better choice
- •You need performance tracing, session replay or profiling — we deliberately don't build those.
- •Your mobile apps need native symbolication (dSYM, ProGuard).
- •You want to self-host the whole stack.
- •Procurement requires a SOC 2 report or SAML/SCIM single sign-on.
- •You want one vendor for errors, performance, logs and replays.
When OpenErrorAPI is
- •Error tracking is what you actually use, and you want to pay for distinct bugs, not traffic.
- •Your error volume is spiky — a bad deploy shouldn't cost money or blind you for the rest of the month.
- •You want all data, account data included, on EU servers.
- •You want AI agents to triage errors through a scoped API or MCP, without giving them admin rights.
Frequently asked questions
What exactly is a new issue?
One distinct bug, counted once — in the month when we see it for the first time. The ten-thousandth occurrence of the same exception is free. Events are grouped by fingerprint: the exception type plus your in-app stack frames, or a fingerprint your SDK sends.
Do I need a credit card?
No. New accounts start with a 14-day trial of the Team plan and then continue on Free automatically. Paid plans are switched on at your request from the console and invoiced — nothing is charged automatically.
Is paying yearly cheaper?
Yes. A year costs 10 monthly payments, so 2 months are free.
What happens if I go over my plan?
We keep grouping, counting and alerting; only event detail pauses until the next month or an upgrade. Far above the quota, ingestion stops for the rest of the month. Paid overage is off unless you turn it on and set a monthly cap.
Can I upgrade, downgrade or cancel at any time?
Yes. When you move to a smaller plan, alert channels, monitors and rules you already set up keep working; the new limits apply only to what you add afterwards.
Do AI features cost extra?
Each plan includes a monthly number of AI analyses (see the table). If you add your own Anthropic or OpenAI API key, that limit doesn't apply — you pay your provider directly. The AI agent API and the MCP server are on every plan.
Where is my data stored?
On servers in the EU that we run ourselves: MySQL for accounts and issues, ClickHouse for events. Passwords, tokens and similar fields are scrubbed from events before they are stored, and IP addresses are removed by default. Read the Privacy Policy
Do my existing Sentry SDKs work?
Yes. Keep the official Sentry SDK and replace the DSN. The documentation lists exactly what is supported and what isn't. See the compatibility matrix
What happens to my data when retention ends?
Events older than your retention are no longer available. Issues — title, counts, first and last seen — stay until you delete them, so your history doesn't vanish with the events.
