I am a JavaScript framework author, and was one of those fortunate to get early access and honestly it is the most useful tool I've ever used in the debugging space. Sometimes things are complicated. Often there is a need to do digging to uncover the issue. Being able to move forward and backwards and even jumping between seemingly disjoint parts of the timeline are all at your disposal with Replay. Replay has saved me hours of time. And that isn't hyperbolee. On a couple occasions due to laziness and familiarity I'd do stuff the traditional way and be stuck still after hours (sometimes days) on the same bug. With Replay I was able to shorten that time to about an hour on even the trickiest of bugs. So stoked to now have Replay available to others to help record reproductions of their bugs.

Now I'm even more excited. Replay Team - please consider charging a reasonable amount ($10/mo) for individuals/small teams. I want this to be viable as a business.

  What, no! I'm a broke college student, I don't want to pay for this, at least not yet.

    Having a sound business model to have it keep improved or support broke students with no income and let it rot? Perfect if they can support both with free plans.

I've also been so lucky as to have been able to play with it for a while now, and can corroborate that it's super useful. It's not just a better alternative to something else; it's a whole new category of debugging tools, in the sense that there were problems that were pretty hard to debug and are much easier now that Replay is available.
