Build vs Buy with AI

Hybrid Approach

Moderate Difficulty2-4 weeks for basic errors, 2-3 months for full platform

Basic error logging is easy with AI. But Sentry's source map processing, release tracking, and session replay require significant infrastructure. Self-hosting Sentry is an option.

Key Considerations

•Basic error logging to a database is trivial
•Source map processing needs build integration
•Session replay requires client-side recording infrastructure
•Self-hosted Sentry is officially supported
