IoT platforms

Device observability and OTA platform for embedded products, now part of Nordic Semiconductor

Memfault provides an observability platform for embedded devices. An SDK on the device captures crashes, reboots, metrics and traces, and the cloud service groups issues, tracks fleet health and delivers staged over-the-air firmware updates. It supports Zephyr, FreeRTOS, bare-metal microcontrollers, embedded Linux and Android. Nordic Semiconductor acquired the company in 2025, and the product continues under its own brand for customers using any silicon.

Main products

  • Debugging and Diagnostics
  • Performance Monitoring
  • Log Management & Analytics
  • Product Analytics

  • MCU, Embedded Linux and Android SDKs

Pricing model

Four plans: Developer is free for up to 10 devices for teams building on Nordic Semiconductor silicon, then pay-as-you-go; Growth $3,495 and Scale $6,695 per month, each including 1,000 monthly active devices with usage fees above that; Enterprise is a custom quote. Data retention is 30, 45 or 60 days by plan. Official pricing page.

Known limits

  • The free Developer plan is reserved for products built on Nordic Semiconductor wireless SoCs
  • Growth starts at $3,495 per month, so small fleets on other silicon pay an enterprise-level entry price
  • Heartbeat and debugging data are retained only 30 to 60 days depending on plan
  • Growth and Scale limit integrations to 2 chips and 1 or 2 device architectures
  • OTA audit log and automated S3 export are Enterprise-only
