CEO at Multiplayer.app, full stack session recordings to seamlessly capture and resolve issues or develop new features - without breaking your flow.
Session replay is useful, but when visibility stops at the UI, engineers are left stitching together logs, traces, and payloads by hand. That friction adds up quickly.

Multiplayer is worth a look (and a free try!) if your debugging workflow still involves too much tab-hopping.

6/6 Grateful to our customers, design partners, and community for supporting us and pushing us forward … we’re excited for what we’re building next.

Multiplayer 2025: year in review
In 2025 we focused on a simple but ambitious goal: making debugging faster, less fragmented and less manual. Check out all our releases to make that possible.

3/ Seeing the full list of everything we produced all in one place really brought it home for me.

This year, with a lean team, we shipped:

• Multiple recording modes for capturing issues when they happen
• Annotations and sketches directly on session recordings

2/ We took vacations, tended to our families and protected our mental health.

Our partners and our customers were surprised at the pace we were able to keep. When you’re deep in the day-to-day, it’s easy to forget how unusual that is.

At @multiplayer.app that’s what we’re building for: making it easier for teams to see the same reality, learn from it, and improve together.

Collaboration compounds knowledge.

Support shares what the user saw.
Dev finds a clue in the logs.
QA connects it to a pattern in the traces.
Product explains the why.

And together, they move a problem from “we don’t know what happened” to “we fixed it, and we learned something.”

Humans are naturally wired for cumulative iteration: we learn faster when we share context, build on each other’s discoveries, and refine solutions together.

The same principle applies whether you’re debugging a production issue, designing a feature, or resolving a support ticket.

None of that shows up in your customer success dashboards.

👀 We wrote about how to make your support workflow productive for everyone without burning anyone out:

High user satisfaction scores aren’t worth a burned out team
Multiplayer transforms the chaos of support tickets, eliminating manual work, sloppy hand-offs, and grepping through log files.

But beneath the surface, there’s a quiet cost:

▸ Support wasting hours chasing context instead of solving problems.
▸ Developers spending more time troubleshooting and searching for info than coding.
▸ Customer success burning energy just to keep the process moving.

The customer gets a fix, leaves five stars, and the customer satisfaction dashboard lights up green.

On paper, it’s success.

But...
