DeepTracer Investigation Resolved
checkout/route.ts — 500 errors
Investigated
Root cause
Your Stripe webhook throws when customer.email is null. Stripe sends null for guest checkouts — your code assumed email was always present.
When it started
03:44 UTC — 3 min before the first error. Triggered by deploy #a3f92c at 03:41.
Impact
47 checkout attempts failed. $0 processed during the window.
Suggested fix
const email = customer.email ?? 'guest@checkout'
Data retained for  7 days  ·  Auto-investigated  ·  Slack alert sent
After the deploy

Vercel nails the deploy.
DeepTracer handles what comes next.

Vercel is the best deployment platform in the world. DeepTracer extends it with dedicated production monitoring — three things every Vercel app deserves.

ADD 01
7-day log retention.
Something broke at 3am? No rush. DeepTracer keeps 7 days of logs (30 days for errors) so you can debug on your schedule, not against a clock.

Logs available for 1 hour

Logs from 6 hours ago — unavailable
ADD 02
Automatic error grouping.
One API route throwing 500s can generate hundreds of log lines. DeepTracer deduplicates them automatically — one grouped error with an occurrence count instead of a wall of text.
Runtime errors 847 lines
500 Internal Server Error — /api/checkout 03:47:14
500 Internal Server Error — /api/checkout 03:47:15
500 Internal Server Error — /api/checkout 03:47:17
500 Internal Server Error — /api/checkout 03:47:19
500 Internal Server Error — /api/checkout 03:47:22
+842 more identical lines. DeepTracer groups these into one.
ADD 03
AI root cause analysis.
Stack traces tell you where code crashed. DeepTracer's AI goes further — it reads the trace, analyzes the context, and explains why it happened and how to fix it, in plain English.
Vercel error output Raw output
TypeError: Cannot read properties of null
  (reading 'email')
  at handler (route.ts:47:28)
  at Object.handler (/var/task/.next...)
  at async Server.handleRequest...
  at async Object.apiResolver...
  at async DevServer.runApi...
DeepTracer turns this into a plain-English explanation.
DeepTracer fills all three gaps. One log drain. One click. Nothing to configure.
How it works

One URL. Full coverage.
No code changes required.

Add DeepTracer as a Vercel log drain and your entire app is monitored instantly — every function, edge route, and build event. Add the SDK optionally for LLM cost tracking and traces.

AI investigates. You sleep.
When errors spike, DeepTracer's agent investigates automatically — finds the root cause, links it to the triggering deploy, and sends you the fix.

Frequently asked

Questions about
the Vercel integration

Everything you need to know before connecting.

Do I need to install the SDK too, or is the log drain enough?
The log drain alone covers 80% of use cases. It captures every serverless function log, build output, and edge runtime event — no code changes required. The SDK adds LLM cost tracking (per-model spend, token usage), distributed traces, and browser error monitoring. Start with just the log drain and add the SDK later if you need those features.
What frameworks work with the Vercel log drain?
Any framework deployed on Vercel — Next.js, Nuxt, SvelteKit, Remix, Astro, Gatsby, and plain Node.js APIs. The log drain operates at the Vercel infrastructure level, not the framework level, so it works with everything Vercel supports, including edge functions and middleware.
How is this different from Vercel's built-in monitoring?
Vercel's runtime logs are raw output retained for 1 hour — they show you that something failed, not why. DeepTracer keeps 7 days (30 days for errors), groups identical errors so you see "47 occurrences" instead of 47 separate lines, links errors to the exact deploy that triggered them, and uses AI to investigate root causes and suggest fixes automatically.
Can DeepTracer see my historical Vercel logs?
No — the log drain is a live stream. DeepTracer receives logs from the moment you connect, not retroactively. This is a Vercel platform limitation. Once connected, all new logs are retained for 7 days, so you'll have a full week of history within 7 days of connecting.
What happens to my data? Is it secure?
All data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest. We don't sell your data. We don't train AI models on your logs. Your data is used solely to power your DeepTracer agent. You can delete all your data at any time from your dashboard settings.
What counts as an "event" for billing purposes?
Every log line, error, trace span, or LLM call your app sends to DeepTracer counts as one event. Through the Vercel log drain, each function invocation log line is one event. A typical Next.js app with moderate traffic generates 10K–50K events/month — well within the free tier's 25K limit. We'll warn you before you approach limits, and overages are $0.50/100K events — we never cut off your data.
