Can you explain what goes through an LLM and what does not. You offer 100K logs per day for free but if all of these goes through an LLM, this will burn "thousands?" of dollars every month for a free customer that is milking the machine.

Our free tier doesn't include the anomaly/error detection (noted on the site, we can make it more clear though). And your numbers do add up! That's why you can't just run all your logs through an LLM.

Aggregated (+ simplified) versions of your logs + flagged anomalies get passed through our LLMs
