EventSend vs LogSnag
The LogSnag alternative that also delivers where your team works
Both give your events a home: a live feed in the app, with analytics on top. EventSend keeps every event searchable there too, and also routes the ones that matter to Slack, Discord, Telegram, your own webhook or your phone, with retries and a log of every attempt. Here is an honest comparison, including where LogSnag is the better pick.
The short answer
EventSend or LogSnag?
Both take an event from your app in one HTTP request and keep it in a live feed. What else happens to it is where they differ.
Choose EventSend if
- You want every event in a searchable feed, and the ones that matter in the Slack, Discord or Telegram channels your team already reads.
- A failed delivery should be retried, and you want a log of every attempt.
- You want Stripe, GitHub or Vercel events without writing any code.
- Critical alerts should reach your phone, while quiet hours and rollups keep the rest from waking you.
- You want to ask Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor what happened in your product, in plain language, on every plan including Free.
- You want the same event volume for less money.
Choose LogSnag if
- You want product analytics on your events: funnels and user journeys.
- You want dashboards of custom metrics, like daily active users or revenue, that your code keeps up to date.
- You want an official SDK, including ones for React, Vue and browser code.
- Your team is three people, and the free plan's extra seat matters.
They also work side by side: LogSnag for product analytics, EventSend for the feed and for getting alerts to the people who have to act on them.

Switching
Moving from LogSnag is one find-and-replace
The request has nearly the same shape. Point it at EventSend, rename a few fields, and let topics do the job channels and the notify flag did.
curl -X POST https://api.logsnag.com/v1/log \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $LOGSNAG_TOKEN" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"project": "my-saas",
"channel": "payments",
"event": "New Payment",
"description": "$49 from [email protected]",
"icon": "💰",
"notify": true,
"user_id": "cus_9Xk2",
"timestamp": 1789000000,
"tags": {"plan": "pro"}

}'| LogSnag field | In EventSend |
|---|---|
| project | The route. Your token already says which one. |
| channel |
A topic whose event pattern matches, or a key in payload.
|
| event | event, 4 to 64 characters. |
| description | message, required, 4 to 500 characters. |
| icon | icon, unchanged. |
| tags |
Keys in payload, which is required and at most 4 KB. Send {}

user_id, unchanged: your stable customer id, matched exactly. It powers
the user filter on the events page and the per-customer timeline your AI assistant
can ask for over MCP.
|
| notify |
level, plus a topic that sends error
and critical
to your phone.
|
| timestamp |
occurred_at, optional: ISO-8601 instead of unix seconds. Leave it out
and the event is dated when it arrives.

Let your coding agent do it
Paste the EventSend prompt into Cursor, Claude Code or Codex and ask it to replace the existing LogSnag calls. It maps your events, picks the levels and wires the failure paths too.
Stripe through Zapier?
If a Zap sends your Stripe payments to LogSnag, connect the Stripe source instead. Paste one URL into Stripe, and payments, failed charges and disputes arrive as events with no Zap and no code.
Questions
Good questions.
- Is EventSend a replacement for LogSnag?
- For the event feed and alerts, yes. The request has nearly the same shape, every event lands in a searchable feed in the app, and the ones you route also reach Slack, Discord, Telegram, your own webhook or your phone, with retries. For product analytics, no. EventSend has no funnels or user journeys, so keep an analytics tool for those. What it does have is a read-only MCP server: send a user_id with your events, and Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor can tell you what one customer did before they cancelled, or whether anything failed in checkout today, in plain language.
- Does EventSend have a mobile app?
- Like LogSnag, EventSend installs from the browser on your phone or desktop, with your event feed inside. Critical alerts can also reach your phone through Web Push or Pushover, and everything else can go to Slack, Discord or Telegram.
- Does EventSend have analytics?
- Yes, operational ones: event volume, levels, error rate, delivery health per destination, and volume by topic and source, with 12 months of history on every plan. It does not do funnels or user journeys.
- How much cheaper is EventSend than LogSnag?
- For 50,000 events a month, EventSend is $12, or $10 a month billed yearly. LogSnag is $19, or $16 a month billed yearly. EventSend costs less at every paid tier on both billing cycles, as of September 17, 2026.
- Can I use EventSend and LogSnag together?
- Yes. LogSnag is stronger at product analytics, and EventSend adds routing to the channels your team reads. One small helper in your app can send the same event to both.
- How do I move my LogSnag events to EventSend?
- Point the request at https://eventsend.io/api/events, rename description to message and tags to payload, and add a level. user_id stays as it is, and timestamp becomes occurred_at, in ISO-8601 instead of unix seconds. Or paste the EventSend prompt into your coding agent and ask it to replace the LogSnag calls.
