koigrid vs Vercel Log Drains
Forward your platform logs to any sink — the flat-rate alternative to Vercel Log Drains.
Vercel Log Drains stream your logs to an external destination so you keep them, search them and alert on them in the tool you already use. koigrid does the same — buffer your build/runtime/app logs and ship them to any HTTP sink or Datadog — with a durable per-drain cursor (so a sink that is briefly down loses nothing), included in your flat rate.
| Feature | koigrid | Vercel Log Drains |
|---|---|---|
| Pricing | Flat rate (included) | Per drain (Pro/Enterprise) |
| HTTP sink (Logtail/Axiom/Better Stack…) | Yes | Yes |
| Datadog format | Native | Via HTTP |
| Durable buffer + cursor (no loss on outage) | Yes | Best-effort |
| Push your own app logs (ingest API) | Yes | No (platform logs only) |
| Anti-SSRF on destination | Yes | n/a |
| Manage by AI agent | Native (API + CLI) | API |
What koigrid improves
Nothing lost on an outage
Each drain keeps a cursor over a durable buffer — a sink that is down just resumes where it left off.
Push your own logs
Not just platform logs: an app or agent can POST structured records to the ingest API and they flow to every drain.
Flat, predictable
Log drains are included — no per-drain surcharge.
