Local and SSH log access
Open logs directly on your machine or connect to servers over SSH. No log shipping, no sync jobs.
Features
A faster way to work with logs that are hard to handle.
Grep Badger is built for developers who SSH into servers, work with large log files, and want to keep sensitive data off cloud services.
Live tailing
Watch logs in real time while incidents unfold. Filter and highlight as you tail.
Chunk-based navigation
Open 1GB+ files without waiting for your coffee to get cold. Navigate by chunks, not by loading everything.
Filters and highlights
Highlight request IDs, error codes, hostnames. Filter out the noise so you can see what matters.
Local AI with Ollama
Ask questions about your logs. Ollama runs locally. Nothing leaves your machine unless you say so.
Native desktop app
Not a web app running in a browser. A real desktop app that feels fast and stays out of your way.
No subscriptions, no cloud dependency
Cross-platform
Runs on Windows and Linux. One app, all your machines.
One-time purchase
Buy it once, use it forever. No monthly fees, no per-seat pricing, no surprise charges.
