https://scryspell.com - a simple session recording and analytics tool.

I used to use squeaky.ai which was a pretty simple session recording tool, but they got tired of running it and shut it down. PostHog is pretty great and with a generous free tier, but I get overwhelmed by their huge UI since it's such a large product now.

The core of the product is session recording, which I implemented using the rrweb library, which itself uses the Mutation Observer API. Everything else is pretty standard React/TypeScript/TanQuery for the front, Java/SpringBoot/PostgreSQL for the back.

No users, but working through the journey of trying to become a better copy writer / product manager / marketer! I've been getting some great advice on how to improve my landing page which has been exciting.

Looks great!

Have you checked Microsoft Clarifty - https://clarity.microsoft.com - it allows to generate heatmap and do session recording as well. And it is free. What are advantages of https://scryspell.com over it ?

Came here to say this. I’m using Microsoft Clarity and I’m very happy with it.

Maybe less known tools have a better chance bypassing AdBlockers?
