About
Axiom is an event data platform for logs, traces, metrics, and events. It ingests data through OpenTelemetry, Events API, SDKs, and other connectors, then provides query, monitoring, dashboarding, and retention features in a hosted cloud service.
The Personal plan includes 500 GB/month of data loading, 10 GB-hours/month of query compute, 25 GB of storage, 30-day retention, and support for up to 2 datasets, 256 fields per dataset, 1 user, and 3 monitors. Axiom Cloud adds monthly usage-based pricing, automatic volume discounts, US and EU regions, and optional enterprise add-ons such as SSO, RBAC, Directory Sync, and Audit Logs.

Free Tier Value
Axiom explicitly offers a Personal free-forever plan with no credit card required, plus a paid Axiom Cloud plan that starts at $25/month. The free tier includes 500 GB/month ingest, 10 GB-hours/month query compute, and 25 GB storage; the pricing table shows the paid plan includes 1,000 GB/month ingest, 100 GB-hours/month query compute, and 100 GB storage, but the only concrete paid monthly charge is the $25 platform fee. Using the conservative free-tier rule, the recurring free-tier value is therefore $25/month (the lowest paid plan price that exceeds the free cap, prorated to monthly).
