What

/compare/axiom in en, ja and ko, plus a new Surfaces section on the comparison template and the sixth vendor wired into everywhere a count was baked in.

  • competitors.ts: the Axiom entry. 13 difference rows (6 Maple, 3 even, 4 Axiom), parity chips without the errors chip, 2 migration steps, the otlphttp/axiom Collector diff, 5 FAQs, 9 sources checked 2026-09
  • vendor-pricing.ts: the Axiom model, from their published rate card. $25 platform fee plus three metered dials with marginal volume tiers (data loading $0.12/GB falling to $0.06 at petabyte scale, query compute $0.20/GB-hour, storage $0.03 per compressed GB) behind the 1 TB / 100 GB-hour / 100 GB free allowances, on their documented 95% compression
  • Surfaces.astro (new): four product surfaces drawn by the live artifacts the feature pages already use, each with one line on what building the same thing costs on the other tool
  • messages/{en,ja,ko}.json: 62 keys each
  • brand-marks.ts: the Axiom mark from their own lockup, on a 13x11 grid
  • NavBar.tsx, Footer.astro, BillComparison.astro, compare.md.ts, hub SEO copy: sixth column and link
  • CrossLinks.astro: five links now lay out 3 + 2 on six columns, so the hairline grid never shows an empty cell
  • llms.txt.ts: names the comparison pages from the registry, instead of a list that went stale a vendor ago

The Surfaces section

The difference table says what differs, row by row. This says what the difference looks like: the service map, session replay, web analytics and the Kubernetes console, each drawn live, each answered by an On <vendor>: line. The argument is that one product ships these built and the other gives you a query language and a panel editor.

It is opt-in per vendor. MAPLE_SURFACES holds the Maple-side copy once, since it is the same on every page, and a vendor stores only its own "instead" lines. Pages without the field are untouched and keep four rail anchors; this page gets five. Artifact ids stay strings in the registry, because NavBar is a client island that reads it and cannot pull in .astro.

Where the other tool is marked ahead

Price at volume (their ingest rate falls to $0.06/GB with no negotiation, ours is flat), retention economics ($0.03 per compressed GB a month), integration catalog, and compliance (SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, HIPAA BAA, US or EU residency against our no-SOC-2-yet). Query languages, AI tooling and cost controls are even. The receipts put the reference month at $39 against $55, and the caveat says plainly that above a terabyte a month their ingest rate is the cheaper one.

Two corrections to existing pages

  • The cost-controls row claimed Maple has no hard ingest cap. It does: a monthly spend ceiling with per-signal caps, enforced at the gateway in pause mode. Fixed on this page and on the one other page that carried the same claim, and both rows are now even.
  • MAPLE_PRICING_NOTE and three separators in the shared .md template were emitting em dashes into every comparison page. Replaced, so none of the six pages renders one.

Verification

  • /compare/axiom, /ja/compare/axiom, /ko/compare/axiom, /compare/axiom.md, /compare, /compare.md, /llms.txt and the other five comparison pages all 200 locally
  • Layout measured in the browser at 1440px: the artifact takes the wide track on every Surfaces row and the sides alternate; the hub is two rows of three, cross-links are 3 + 2, and the bill table fits its box. At 375px everything stacks with no page or inner overflow
  • oxlint clean on apps/landing/src; oxfmt clean on the touched files
  • astro check reports only the pre-existing @maple/ui module-resolution errors (unbuilt lib), none in the new or changed files
  • Not run: the production astro build, deliberately, because of the hour. Worth one before merge.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added a new Axiom comparison page across navigation, billing, footer, SEO, pricing, integrations, compliance, and migration content.
    • Added Axiom to comparison tables and pricing estimates.
    • Added a Surfaces section comparing service maps, browser sessions, analytics, and Kubernetes capabilities.
    • Improved comparison layouts for uneven link counts.
  • Content Updates

    • Updated SigNoz cost-control messaging with monthly and per-signal caps, including pause and notification options.
    • Added localized Axiom comparison content in English, Japanese, and Korean.

Adds Axiom to the comparison registry as /compare/axiom in all three locales:
thirteen difference rows (pricing model, error workflow, frontend, license,
self-hosting and local mode; query languages, AI and cost controls even; then
price at volume, retention economics, integration catalog and compliance where
Axiom is ahead), the Collector exporter change, five FAQs and nine dated
sources.

Prices Axiom from its published rate card in vendor-pricing.ts: a $25 platform
fee plus three metered dials with marginal volume tiers (data loading from
$0.12/GB falling to $0.06, query compute from $0.20/GB-hour, storage $0.03 per
compressed GB) behind the 1 TB / 100 GB-hour / 100 GB free allowances. The
receipts price the reference month at $39 against $55, and the caveat says
plainly that the ingest rate is the cheaper one above a terabyte a month.

Adds a Surfaces section to the comparison template, rendered only for vendors
that carry the new optional registry field: four product surfaces drawn by the
live artifacts the feature pages already use (service map, session replay, web
analytics, Kubernetes console), each answered by one line of what building the
same thing costs on the other tool. MAPLE_SURFACES holds the Maple-side copy
once; a vendor stores only its "instead" lines, and the in-page rail grows a
fifth anchor where the section exists.

Wires the sixth vendor everywhere a count was baked in: nav, footer, the bill
table and its /compare.md mirror, and the hub SEO copy. CrossLinks now lays
five links out as 3 + 2 on six columns, so the hairline grid never shows an
empty cell, and llms.txt names the comparisons from the registry instead of a
list that went stale a vendor ago.

Corrects the cost-controls row on two pages: Maple does have hard ingest caps
(a monthly spend ceiling with per-signal caps, enforced at the gateway in pause
mode), so that row is even rather than a point against us.

No em dashes in the new copy, and the shared markdown separators that were
injecting them into every vendor's .md are gone too.

The new comparison content can show misleading Axiom pricing and send Japanese and Korean visitors to English feature pages. These are localized presentation defects, but should be corrected before publishing the comparison.

Do not classify query compute as ingest pricing.

The Axiom ingest cell in BillComparison.astro combines the data-loading rate with the separately metered query-compute rate. Show only the data-loading rate here, or add query compute as a separate row. Update this component directly because the markdown comparison matrix is a separate copy.

Keep surface links in the active locale.

surface.href contains root-relative /features/... paths, and Surfaces.astro renders them without the active locale. Japanese and Korean comparison pages therefore link to the English feature routes. Use getRelativeLocaleUrl(locale, surface.href) or the equivalent locale-path helper at this rendering site.

Preserve the hour dimension when formatting query compute.

When queryHours reaches 1,000, formatSliderValue converts GB-hrs/mo to TB/mo, which drops the hour dimension. Change only the leading GB during conversion so the value renders as 1 TB-hrs/mo.

Do not classify query compute as ingest pricing.

The bill_row_ingest() row combines Axiom’s $0.12 / GB data-loading rate with the separate $0.20 / GB-hr query-compute rate. Show only the data-loading rate, or add a separate query-compute row.
