Visualize all of your multimodal data.

Choose from over 20 out-of-the-box panels to create interactive visualizations in customizable layouts. Stream your multimodal data, and share each layout to collaborate and quickly understand what your robot is doing.

Learn more about Visualization

Interact with your robots and analyze everything.

Display and control your robots in an interactive 3D scene; share rich visualizations from live and recorded data of your robot's mission and journey; and analyze everything to better understand how your robots move through the world.

Learn more about Analysis

Customize and extend your workflows.

Build bespoke panels, convert custom messages, alias topic names, and configure a set of layouts to support your team's unique development workflows.

Learn more about Extensibility

Store your data in your cloud or ours.

Explore and analyze data more efficiently by streaming only the information you need. Use the UI, API, or CLI to quickly retrieve the data you're interested in. Leverage Sites to dictate where your data is stored and how it is accessed—regardless of your connectivity constraints, regulatory restrictions, or data partitioning requirements.

FAQ

Can I try Foxglove for free?

Yes, absolutely. Foxglove's free plan is available to everyone and will remain free forever. You can have up to 3 users, 10 GB of cloud storage, and 10 devices (i.e., robots).

Are academic discounts available to students and researchers?

Yes. Students, professors, and researchers alike—anyone using Foxglove for academic purposes—can access Foxglove free of charge. Invite your entire lab or team, leverage the data platform, and take advantage of all Foxglove features to help advance the robotics community at large.

Can Foxglove be used for my particular robotics application?

Most likely, yes. Foxglove supports a wide range of data formats and offers several connection options, including the ability to use local files with no internet connectivity. Foxglove's extensibility also allows you to build bespoke panels, convert custom messages, alias topic names, and configure layouts to suit your unique needs. Read the documentation at docs.foxglove.dev/docs/connecting-to-data/introduction#data-sources to learn more.

What data formats does Foxglove support?

Foxglove natively supports MCAP, ROS 1, ROS 2, and custom formats like Protobuf, JSON, or FlatBuffers, using an encoding-agnostic WebSocket connection or a local or remote MCAP file.

What development workflows can Foxglove help my team with?

Foxglove's primary use cases include multimodal data visualization and management. Visualizing all your robotic data on a single screen enables you to troubleshoot and debug issues more quickly. Managing data through Foxglove's connections and platform creates seamless development loops: while your robot operates and records data, you identify issues, make improvements, redeploy, and repeat.

Are data recordings uploaded to Foxglove secure?

Yes, absolutely. Foxglove enforces HTTPS on all connections, encrypts data in transit with TLS 1.2, and secures data at rest with AES 256-bit encryption. Foxglove also uses single sign-on (SSO) and Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) for secure authentication. Additionally, Foxglove is SOC 2 Type II certified and General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) compliant. View the security page at foxglove.dev/security to learn more.

How long does it take to integrate and start using the Foxglove platform?

You can start using the Foxglove platform instantly. Simply drag .bag or .mcap files onto the screen to begin visualizing your data. Connecting to your robot is just as easy—use a WebSocket, the Foxglove Rosbridge, or the Foxglove Agent.

Do I need to sign up for a paid plan for my team to use Foxglove?

Not if your team has 3 or fewer people. If your team has 4 or more people, you will need to sign up for the Starter or Team plan to continue using Foxglove.
