BugBoard - Brief Overview
What It Does
BugBoard is a SaaS error-tracking and project management platform that transforms crash reports into collaborative kanban boards. When errors are reported through SDKs, they automatically become cards on your project board where teams can triage, assign, comment, and track them to resolution.
Think of it as Sentry meets Trello — a real-time error management system with collaborative workflows.
Who It's For
- Hobbyist — the free Hobby tier is built for a single developer writing a side project in the weekend for their friend or family.
- Solo developers & Indie hackers — the Indie and Professional plans are built for single developer or up to a group of 10 members creating a SaaS product. Or simply just freelancers managing client projects.
Features
Core Functionality
- Kanban Board — drag-and-drop cards between columns, list view, real-time WebSocket collaboration via Laravel Reverb/Echo, optimistic updates with automatic rollback on error
- Error Ingestion — official SDKs for JavaScript, TypeScript, and PHP push errors to a single API endpoint, authenticated via bearer (publishable) or HMAC-signed (secret) keys
- Auto-Deduplication — duplicate errors are fingerprinted and merged into a single card with occurrence counts instead of flooding the board
- In-Transit Payload Encryption — optional per-project keypairs for encrypting error payloads before they leave the clint
- Analytics Dashboard — severity, priority, workflow-funnel, and tag charts, top errors, and aging issues over 24h/7d/30d/all-time ranges
- Team Management — multi-tenant projects, role-based access (Admin, Member, Viewer) and invitations.
Project & Task Management
- Card detail with comments, attachments, tags, priority/severity, and inline editing
- Configurable filters (search, priority, severity, tags, assignee, column, origin, sort) with cursor-based pagination for archived tasks
- Project settings: general info (name, URL, timezone, short description), API key management, encryption key management, task escalation/reopen rules, and notification preferences
- Per-project pause (reversible, frees a plan slot), archive (terminal, read-only), and (notifies all members by email)
