New tracking service brings real-time error monitoring and event analytics to developers' phones, launching July 25th with iOS app availability.

Dan Zabrotski, the 24-year-old CEO and co-founder of language learning platform Speekl, has debuted Traque, a mobile-first application monitoring tool tailored for development teams and startups.

Launched on July 25th, 2025, Traque tackles the challenge of having to monitor applications exclusively from desktop dashboards. Instead, it merges real-time error tracking and event monitoring into a mobile app, keeping developers informed about their applications wherever they are.

"Most tracking tools make you sit at your computer all day," said Dan Zabrotski. "With Traque, you get important information about errors and user events right on your phone. Whether it's celebrating a new customer or fixing a critical bug, Traque keeps your team in the loop."

The idea for Traque originated when Dan needed to troubleshoot an urgent issue during a trip. Unable to easily open his laptop at a busy airport while exceptions appeared in their payment system, he realized the need for a mobile-first solution for developers.

Traque is part of Speekl's portfolio, built upon Dan's eight years of software development experience across Fintech, Big Data, F&B, and Transportation, drawing from the technical expertise he used to build Speekl's platform and now applied to Traque's monitoring capabilities.

Core Features and Platform Support

Traque offers several key features designed to streamline application monitoring:

  • Real-time error tracking and monitoring with instant mobile notifications
  • Event tracking and analytics for understanding user behavior
  • AWS WAF integration for enhanced security and traffic filtering
  • Quick setup process requiring just a few lines of code
  • Multi-platform support including React, Node.js, and NestJS

The service targets development teams that need to monitor both technical issues and business events. Common use cases include tracking new user signups from marketing campaigns, monitoring high-value purchases, detecting API errors before they affect users, and coordinating team responses to system issues.

For startups, Traque offers particular value in allowing teams to move fast without compromising stability. Traditional monitoring tools often require dedicated DevOps resources to maintain, while Traque works out of the box with minimal setup time. The platform's notification system is designed to scale with growing teams, offering individual alerts for critical issues, team channels for collaboration, and summary reports for tracking long-term trends.

Technical Implementation

Traque supports JavaScript and TypeScript applications with SDKs for React, Node.js, and NestJS. The platform captures runtime errors, network failures, and validation issues, and enables tracking custom events and business metrics. Setup takes just a few lines of code, with automatic error handling for frameworks like Express and Fastify. React developers use error boundaries and hooks; NestJS users get exception filters. Java and Python SDKs are planned.

"It was very easy and fast to set up Traque in our projects," says Kurt Jeffries, an early adopter from the United States. "Since integrating Traque, we use their alerting for new quote requests without building it ourselves."

Mobile-First Approach

What sets Traque apart from existing monitoring tools is its mobile-first design philosophy. The iOS mobile app is currently available, with Android and web applications in active development. The mobile app provides real-time push notifications, detailed error information with stack traces, and team collaboration features.

"Instead of constantly checking dashboards or waiting for users to report problems, you get notified the moment something important happens," the platform's documentation explains. The mobile app includes custom notification settings, allowing teams to configure alerts based on severity levels and set up quiet hours for off-duty periods.

Competitive Landscape

Traque stands out in the monitoring market by putting mobile first. Most existing platforms were built for desktop use, with complex setup processes and separate tools for error tracking and event analytics. This means teams often juggle multiple dashboards and spend more time on configuration.

Traque combines both error monitoring and event tracking in one simple platform. Setup takes minutes, and the mobile app is designed to be the primary interface. While other platforms charge high fees that grow with usage, Traque focuses on affordable pricing for essential features.

Early Market Traction

Following the platform's waitlist period and July launch, Traque has attracted its first wave of startup customers from both the United States and the United Arab Emirates. The international interest demonstrates the global appeal of mobile-first monitoring solutions, with early adopters particularly drawn to the platform's simplified setup process and integrated approach to error tracking and event analytics.

Business Model and Availability

Traque operates as a cloud-based service.

The launch reflects Dan Zabrotski's continued focus on creating developer-friendly tools that prioritize simplicity and effectiveness. His previous success with Speekl, which allows tutors to keep 100% of their earnings and has attracted users worldwide, demonstrates his ability to identify and solve practical problems in the tech industry.

Integration with Speekl's Mission

While Speekl focuses on connecting language learners with tutors through fair and transparent technology, Traque extends the company's mission of building useful, accessible tools for different communities. Both platforms emphasize ease of use, fair pricing, and mobile accessibility.

The timing of Traque's launch comes as many development teams are looking for more flexible monitoring solutions that don't require constant desktop oversight. With remote work and distributed teams becoming more common, tools that enable monitoring from mobile devices are increasingly valuable.

Future Development and AI Integration

Looking ahead, Dan Zabrotski indicated that Traque will continue expanding its capabilities and platform support. The company is actively developing Android and web applications to complement the iOS app, while also working on additional integrations and features based on user feedback.

A major focus for Traque's future development is artificial intelligence integration. The platform plans to introduce smart root cause analysis that will examine error patterns across applications to suggest likely causes, predictive error detection to warn teams before problems occur, and intelligent event analysis to identify meaningful patterns in user behavior.

"The AI features are going to be game-changing," says Daria Simonyan, Co-Founder of Speekl. "Instead of drowning in data, developers will get intelligent insights that help them make better decisions faster. It's like having an engineer looking over your shoulder 24/7."

Additional planned features include OpenTelemetry integration for distributed tracing, natural language queries for easier data analysis, and smart alerting that learns from team behavior to reduce notification fatigue. All AI features are being built with a privacy-first approach, ensuring that application data never leaves customer control while still providing intelligent insights.

The platform's documentation suggests upcoming features may include custom home screen widgets and Apple Watch support for quick monitoring access.

For development teams and startups looking to implement comprehensive application monitoring without the overhead of traditional enterprise solutions, Traque represents a new approach that prioritizes mobile accessibility and ease of use. The iOS app is available now, with teams able to get started with the tracking service in minutes using the Traque SDK.
