About

Inspector is a PHP application monitoring tool that traces transactions, events, exceptions, slow queries, and external calls from code instrumentation rather than server-side agents. It supports Laravel, Symfony, CodeIgniter, Drupal, raw PHP, and Neuron AI, and includes a dashboard for debugging application behavior in real time.

The free plan includes 30K transactions per month, unlimited events, unlimited hosts and apps, up to 3 team members, live chat support, and AI Bug Fixer access. The service is aimed at developers who need perpetual monitoring with a recurring usage cap rather than a time-limited trial.

This free tier is perpetual and does not require a credit card, but it is still capped at 30K transactions per month. The cheapest paid plan is €15/month (about $16), so the free tier is roughly 20% of that plan’s value; with unlimited events, hosts, apps, live chat, and AI Bug Fixer included, it feels worth about $5/month.
