I built an AI that debugs production errors (so I never get paged at 3 AM again)

The Problem

Got paged at 3 AM seven times last month.

Each time:

  • 30 min waking up ☕
  • 2 hours debugging 🔍
  • Find root cause
  • Fix manually
  • Can't sleep 😫

Total: 21 hours wasted

I thought: "AI should do this."

So I built ErrorZero.

What ErrorZero Does

Traditional Debugging:

  1. Error occurs at 3 AM
  2. Get paged
  3. SSH into servers
  4. Grep logs for 2 hours
  5. Check deployment history
  6. Form hypothesis
  7. Test hypothesis
  8. Find root cause
  9. Write fix
  10. Deploy

Time: 2 hours 😫

With ErrorZero:

  1. Error occurs
  2. Click "Analyze with AI"
  3. Get root cause + fix in 10 seconds

Time: 10 seconds ✅

Coolest Features

1. 🤖 Conversational Debugging

Just ask questions:

You: "Why is checkout failing?"

AI: "Database connection pool exhausted.
     v2.3.1 deployment 30 min ago caused it.
     Rollback to v2.3.0 fixes it."

2. 🔮 Error Prediction

Get warnings 5-30 minutes BEFORE failures:

⚠️ PREDICTION ALERT

Inventory service will OOM in 18 minutes
Confidence: 87%

Recommendation: Scale to 5 replicas NOW

Current cost of doing nothing: $12,400/hour
Cost to prevent: $50/month

Should I auto-scale? [Yes] [No]

3. 🧬 Collective Intelligence

Learn from 234+ companies:

847 companies have seen this error

Solution A: 94% success rate (recommended)
Solution B: 67% success rate  
Solution C: 23% success rate

Apply Solution A? [Yes] [No]

Frontend (Done): Next.js, React, Tailwind

Backend (Building): Node.js, PostgreSQL

AI: OpenAI API → Llama self-hosted

I Need Your Feedback!

Backend isn't built yet. Building based on what YOU want.

Questions:

  1. Would this solve a problem for you?
  2. What features are missing?
  3. Would you pay $499/month for this?
