AuditTrail — Audit logs as a service for B2B SaaS

One-liner: Drop-in API to add customer-facing audit trails to your SaaS app. Immutable event log with search, export, and compliance-ready.

Target market: B2B SaaS companies that need SOC 2/HIPAA compliance audit trails for their customers

Monetization: $19/mo (100K events) / $49/mo (1M events + webhooks) / $149/mo (10M + SSO + SIEM export)

Why us:

Event sourcing = literally an audit log by nature. eskit is the foundation.
Go + NATS for high-throughput immutable event ingestion
Datastar for real-time audit log viewer
Every B2B SaaS eventually needs this for enterprise customers

🔍 Competitor Research

Competitor	Pricing	Notes
Apptrail	Early stage, indie	Only real direct competitor. Small, on Indie Hackers.
WorkOS Audit Logs	Part of WorkOS platform	Bundled with SSO/directory sync. Not standalone.
Pangea	Security services platform	Audit log is one of many features. Enterprise.

Gap: Apptrail is the only standalone "audit trail as a service" and is tiny. WorkOS bundles it but you need their whole platform. Massive demand — every SaaS company building for enterprise needs this. Natural extension of EventLedger.

Domain: relaylog.com AVAILABLE ✅, auditledger.com taken

Time to MVP: 2-3 weeks (it is literally an event store with a search UI)

Verdict: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5/5) — Perfect fit for eventsourcing expertise. Tiny competition. Every B2B SaaS needs it. Can share infrastructure with EventLedger.
