About Embrace
Embrace is a commercial observability platform focused on mobile applications. It records the timeline of each user session and analyzes crashes, so mobile developers can see what happened before a problem and understand how real devices behave in the field.
Embrace is a proprietary, vendor-hosted service with no self-hosted edition. Detailed features, supported platforms and plans are described on the vendor's own site, and it suits mobile engineering teams that want visibility beyond basic crash reporting.
