**Company:** Zed

Zed's mission is to build the world's best text editor, that allows developers to build software collaboratively. They built Zed the IDE, which has grown to hundreds of thousands of weekly active users. When Zed expanded from macOS to Linux and then Windows, their hand-rolled crash reporting stopped scaling — every error landed ungrouped in a Slack channel. They replaced three partial homegrown solutions with one Sentry pipeline across all three platforms, and cut their crash rate from roughly 0.5% to 0.1% over about six months.
