Product model

Why free signup should prove value first

The first job is proof: signup free, install Worker or JS, see bots land. Pay only when a domain needs deeper Bots and URLs.

Quick take

Free means unlimited domains, a rolling 7-day Feed, and Bots/URLs summary — enough to prove install worked before anyone pays. Depth stays on Pro and Agency.

Prove setup before pricing pressure

The first job of CrawlerLogs is to prove that setup worked. Signup should not force a plan decision before there is product evidence.

Free covers unlimited domains with a rolling 7-day Feed and Bots/URLs summary. Confirm the Worker or JS tag is receiving events, then decide whether a property needs Pro depth.

What free covers

Free is intentionally narrow but useful: unlimited domains, last 7 days of crawler activity, and Bots/URLs summary — enough signal to answer the first questions — is install working, which bots are arriving?

That keeps onboarding honest without giving away full investigation tools.

Paid depth starts when investigation starts

Full Bots and URLs inspectors are investigative tools. Free already shows summary lists; Pro unlocks drilldowns, URL-level patterns, and bot-by-bot history.

That is why upgrades sit at the domain level — after free has already shown the Feed and summaries work.

Why Agency exists

Agencies usually monitor many properties. Agency is the pack: 4 domains at $999/year, then $99 per extra domain per year.

Start free on one site, then move the portfolio onto Agency when the client set is clear.

The bottom line

Free signup is not the whole product. It makes first success obvious. Pro and Agency make paid analysis specific and easy to explain. See pricing.
