When we started Zero, we weren’t even sure there _was_ a correct design for the kind of query-based sync engine we dreamed of. We spent two years finding that design, then hardening it for production use.
We always imagined a hosted version too, because (a) running a sync server is never going to be fun 😅, and (b) gotta make money!
Starting late last year, we were finally able to begin work on that hosted version. Initially it was invite-only and small, but we're now in production and syncing thousands of messages per minute for teams like @productlane, @passionfroot, and @shipper_crm.
Cloud Zero is production-grade Zero hosting from the team that built it:
- no servers to run or maintain
- 24/7 monitoring and alerts
- automatic zero-downtime updates
- fast NVMe-based architecture
- run as traditional SaaS or in your own AWS account
We’re onboarding manually, but it’s quick. And if you’re already self-hosting Zero, we’ll help migrate your setup.

UI is really nice but would be nicer if it worked against standard OTel setup. Quite happy with @ClickHouseDB, HyperDx and an otel collector in docker-compose.
Big plus: config can be committed to monorepo and no special code required for local dev.
Agents work fantastic with it
Introducing Lensflare – an open-source macOS development observability stack for humans and AI agents.
AI agents can see your code, but not what actually happens during runtime. With AI and libraries like Effect, it has never been easier to add telemetry to your app, but the tools for working with traces locally have mostly stayed the same.
Lensflare changes that by providing a fast, local-first app that listens for telemetry in real time and lets you dig deep to understand what’s happening and where. What’s more, it extends the same capabilities to Claude or Codex via a built-in MCP server.

@aboodman A seriously underrated aspect of LLMs. Ever since we set up Codex with skills for Dash0 and Braintrust I am so much more motivated to chase down bugs.
@kitlangton something (among many) Effect really got right is that the name is so good and amenable to combining with other nouns.

the Effect Platform
ZIO doesn't have the same ring!
