BRAIN behaviours
How the site keeps earning its keep.
Ember ships with these modules switched on. Each one drafts work for you to approve.
Research
Watches the world, competitors, news, search demand, source material.
Watches green-coffee market reports to time origin launches.
Automation
Drafts and refreshes pages on a schedule; never publishes without approval.
Spins up a PDP automatically when the roastery publishes a new lot.
Intelligence
Reads the analytics signal and proposes structural improvements.
Flags subscription churn risks by usage pattern and sends a brewing nudge.
Nurture
Keeps the relationship warm with timely, on-brand follow-ups.
A monthly brew guide that doubles as a re-order trigger.
Recommended integrations
Pre-wired for this industry.
Same engine, different colour
Variants with this layout.
These themes share Ember's structure, header, footer and rhythm, with a different palette and typeface.
v3.0, out now
Observability for systems that don't fit a dashboard.
Beacon traces, profiles and logs across distributed services without the storage bill of a hyperscaler.
Read the docs
Trusted across the industry
What you get
Drop-in OpenTelemetry
One env var, every language. Auto-instrumentation for HTTP, gRPC, queues and DBs.
Sampled, not sampled out
Tail-based sampling keeps the rare bad request and discards the noise, no surprises at 3am.
Cost you can predict
Per-host, not per-event. Storage tiers down to S3 after seven days, replayable on demand.
We cut observability spend 80% and stopped guessing at root cause.
