Uploading

What logcat.ai accepts, what it doesn't, and how to prepare your captures before uploading, with vertical-specific guides for Android, telecom, automotive, and embedded systems.

Uploading logs to logcat.ai

logcat.ai works on text-based system logs. Most uploads are direct: adb bugreport, dmesg, logcat output. Captures from proprietary diagnostic tools (modem traces, vehicle bus traces) need a one-step text export from the vendor tooling first. The guides below show which export option produces an accepted file.
