We’re introducing 2 dashboards that help you understand what’s happening across your device fleets.

  • Fleet overview dashboard

  • Device overview dashboard

Fleet overview dashboard

Use it when you’re monitoring day-to-day operations, validating a rollout, or responding to a report like “devices started rebooting” or “telemetry dropped”.

Fleet overview dashboard

It helps you answer questions like:

  • Are devices connecting as expected?

  • Are crashes increasing, and is it tied to a rollout?

  • Which firmware versions are active in the field right now?

  • Did something change in logs (volume or severity)?

Device overview dashboard

Seeing something fishy and need to check on a specific device? The Device overview is your go-to place for understanding how a single device behaves in the real world over time.

Device overview dashboard

It helps you answer questions like:

  • Is this device stable?

  • Did a recent firmware update introduce crashes?

  • Is the device communicating reliably with the cloud?

  • Are we running close to CPU or memory limits?

Zephyr OS metrics are automatically collected by our device module, which runs alongside your firmware on the device. No coding needed!

The dashboards are now available for all plans, including the Free tier.

You can now set the log level directly from the Spotflow web interface, without needing to modify firmware and redeploy.

Only logs above the selected level are sent to the cloud, so you can:

  • Cut down data transfer

  • Turn up verbosity remotely when troubleshooting

  • Keep your logging verbosity consistent according to the needs of your environment

The rule of thumb is to keep production devices on ERROR and only increase verbosity to DEBUG for specific devices when troubleshooting is actually needed.

Hi,

Our crash dump analysis just got a big update! You don’t have to waste hours decoding stack traces and registers anymore.

In addition to our automated GDB analysis, our AI now breaks it down, providing a clear, human-readable explanation and suggesting a fix based on the decompiled symbol file.

  • All crash dumps coming to the Spotflow platform are analyzed upon arrival.

  • AI analysis explains what went wrong in natural language based on the decompiled symbol file.

  • AI suggests how to fix to your firmware.

You gain the understanding in seconds, instead of hours, so you can focus on fixing your code.

Crash report with a concise message of what went wrong:

Available for all Spotflow plans, including the free tier.

  • Automated collection from Zephyr-powered devices, just enable it via Kconfig.

  • Analysis via an easy-to-use web interface.

  • Crash reason, stack trace, registers, and variables at a glance.

  • Not using Zephyr? Send crash dumps via MQTT.

June 16th, 2025

It supports:

  • Sending logs from Zephyr-powered devices (use Spotflow as a west dependency)

  • Sending logs using the MQTT client (if your device is not running Zephyr)

  • Web portal for querying and filtering logs

  • Device management

Coming soon:

  • Sending and analyzing crash dumps

  • Allow users to label log template parameters, like '%d' as 'battery_level', for easier querying

  • Metrics support
