(Overview)
A SaaS product for FiveM communities: searchable activity logs for the servers people run, and Lua error tracking for the scripts they sell. Structured underneath, readable on top.
01 — The brief
FiveM server owners log everything to Discord, and it works until someone disputes a transaction from last week. The channel holds a few days, every line is a sentence formatted in Lua, and there is no way to ask what a player actually did.
02 — Our approach
Servers send fields, not sentences. Each channel owns a template, so the feed reads like plain English while every value stays searchable underneath: an actor, an amount over 10,000, a level. Setup is one key in server.cfg and two lines in a resource, and the product is written in the same terminal voice its users work in.
03 — What we delivered
A live log feed with per-channel templates and search, a page per player with export and deletion, roles so moderators only see the channels they should, Discord alerts when a threshold is crossed, and error tracking that catches unhandled Lua errors with the file and line across every server running a script. Plus the marketing site, docs and pricing.
