Luciq (formerly Instabug) rebranded in 2025 into an agentic AI observability platform built for enterprise mobile teams. If you just want shake-to-report bug capture, AI crash grouping, and session context without adopting a full observability stack, Shakebug covers the same ground with less setup.
Instabug rebranded to Luciq in 2025. The product is no longer positioned as a bug-reporting tool: Luciq now competes against Datadog, New Relic, Sentry, Embrace, and App Center as an agentic AI observability platform, with features like automated root-cause resolution and auto-generated pull requests. That’s a different product than the one most teams originally picked Instabug for.
If you added Instabug years ago so your testers could shake a phone and file a bug, you now hold a seat on an enterprise observability platform. Some teams will grow into that. Plenty of others just want the shake gesture back, plus crash grouping that works, without a platform migration on the roadmap.
Comparing against the original Instabug instead? That comparison lives on our Instabug alternative page.
| Shakebug | Luciq | |
|---|---|---|
| Shake-to-report bug capture | Yes | Verify at luciq.ai |
| AI crash grouping | Yes (Crash AI) | Yes (broader “Resolution” pillar — see the honest gap below) |
| Session + User Journey timeline | Yes | Verify at luciq.ai |
| Product analytics (DAU/MAU, retention, events) in the same tool | Yes | Verify at luciq.ai |
| One SDK across iOS/Android/Flutter/React Native/Web | Yes | Verify at luciq.ai |
| Free plan, no credit card | Yes | Verify at luciq.ai |
| Automated fix suggestions / auto-generated PRs | No | Yes (SmartResolve) |
Cells marked “Verify at luciq.ai” are intentionally left unclaimed until a live crawl of luciq.ai confirms them — we don’t publish competitor claims we haven’t checked.
Luciq’s SmartResolve generates automated fixes and pull requests. Shakebug doesn’t do that — it groups and contextualizes bugs and crashes so your team can fix them faster, but a human still writes the fix. If automated remediation is the requirement, Luciq is the better fit.
Install the Shakebug SDK for your platform (iOS, Android, Flutter, React Native, or web) alongside or in place of your current tool. Existing integrations — Jira, Slack, Trello, Asana, ClickUp, Monday, Linear, GitHub, GitLab, Zendesk — carry over the same way. Most teams complete the swap without a separate migration tool since there’s no proprietary data lock-in to unwind.
In practice the swap is one dependency. iOS teams add the package with Swift Package Manager — point Xcode at github.com/softnoesis/ShakeBug and pick the latest release. React Native runs npm install shakebug-react-native, Flutter runs flutter pub add shakebug, and web apps drop in a script tag. Initialize the SDK with your app key, shake the device, and the first report lands in your dashboard with the screenshot, device model, OS version, and network log already attached. Point your Jira or Slack integration at the right board once, and reports route where they always did.
If your organization already runs observability tooling and wants mobile folded into it, with AI agents opening pull requests against your repo, book the Luciq demo and evaluate it on those terms. If your need sounds more like “QA and beta users should report bugs from inside the app, and crashes should arrive grouped with enough context to fix,” Shakebug covers that on a free plan you can test this afternoon. The pricing stays public when you outgrow it.
