In 2012, our founders Chris Jennings and David Cramer were building software when they hit a frustrating wall: finding and fixing errors in production was an unnecessarily painful, time-consuming process that drained developer energy and caused countless sleepless nights. They watched talented engineers waste hours tracking down issues that could have been solved with better visibility, and they knew there had to be a smarter way. So they built Sentry as an open-source project to solve their own problems - creating an easy way to detect, diagnose, and fix their own mistakes before they became disasters.
What started as a two-person passion project quickly evolved into something far bigger than they imagined. Ten years later, Sentry has grown from a simple error tracker into the world's leading application monitoring platform, trusted by more than 4 million developers across 100,000 organizations. Today, Sentry helps teams around the world diagnose, fix, and optimize the performance of their code - saving time, energy, and probably a few therapy sessions along the way. The company now operates across four global offices, processing billions of events daily from some of the most popular products on the internet.
