groundcovergroundcover.comGroundcover is a full-stack observability platform for engineers and agents that monitors infrastructure, applications, logs, traces, metrics, and real user sessions, deployed inside your cloud with BYOC to keep data private and cost predictable. It uses an adaptive eBPF sensor and OpenTelemetry support, plus Agent Mode—an AI-enabled 'engineer' that decides what signals to pull and what queries to run, with Skills to align its behavior to your team's conventions. The platform provides a single MCP to investigate issues, observe AI workloads, automate migrations from legacy stacks, and watch the user experience, delivering automated incident response and scalable observability for teams from startups to Fortune 5 enterprises.

Log Management & Observability Platforms →Excerpts where groundcover appeared in the AI's answer
groundcover is unusually close to exactly what you're describing. Its Enterprise plan is currently $35 per host/month, rather than charging based on log volume, and it explicitly includes unlimited data retention.
groundcover is probably the first one I'd investigate. Its current documentation explicitly says log management is offered at a fixed cost, with any volume of logs for the same flat price, and that retention has no limitations.
