Engineering teams shouldn’t be in the dark when it comes to the performance of their mobile apps and user experiences. With our industry-leading mobile observability technology, Embrace aims to give SRE and DevOps teams better insight into what matters most – their users – by tying mobile performance data to backend observability insights.

As the only user-focused, mobile-first observability solution built on OpenTelemetry, Embrace delivers crucial insights across both DevOps and mobile teams to illuminate real customer impact – not just server impact – to deliver the best app experiences.
