what_it_actually_costs
Your volumes. Everyone's price.
Nobody should take a pricing claim on trust, least of all ours. Put in a real month.

the_verdict
Both jobs, flat, at $99. The same month metered at PostHog comes to about $275, and stays variable.
both_jobs
Analytics and error tracking
At 5,000,000 events and 600,000 errors a month.
Vinktar
$99/mo
Starter — both jobs, separate budgets, flat.
PostHog
$275/mo
Both jobs, metered separately. Priced on identified events — their higher rate, and the one a product-analytics customer is on. Includes session replay and feature flags we do not have.
errors_only
Error tracking on its own
Not the same product. Listed because if the analytics half is not something you want, one of these is very likely your answer.
Sentry
$128/mo
Errors only. Spans, replays, logs and profiles meter on their own quotas and are not counted here, so a real bill is higher than this.
Better Stack
$67/mo
approximate
Errors only, with uptime and logs alongside. Rate reconstructed from published figures rather than a rate card.
how_this_is_worked_out
Where these numbers come from.
Our column reads the same plan constants the product enforces, so it is exact. The others model published list prices: PostHog on their identified-event rate, which is their higher one and the one a product-analytics customer is actually on; Sentry on the Team plan, errors only, excluding the spans, replays and logs that meter separately — so a real Sentry bill is above what is shown. Better Stack's rate is reconstructed from published figures rather than a rate card, and is the least certain here.
Competitors change prices and we will not always notice on the day. If a number here disagrees with a vendor's own pricing page, theirs is right and we want to know — john@vinktar.com.
