About ForceLens
ForceLens is a free Chrome extension that turns raw Salesforce debug logs into something you can actually read: the true order of execution, SOQL and DML breakdowns, CPU and governor limit analysis, and expert-lens Flow reviews — all processed locally in your browser.
Why it exists
Every Salesforce developer knows the ritual: create a trace flag, reproduce the bug, hunt through Setup for the right log, download it, and scroll through tens of thousands of lines looking for the one that matters. The information you need — what ran, in what order, and what it cost — is in the log, but Salesforce presents it as flat text.
ForceLens was built to end that ritual. One click captures the log; the analysis opens where you already are; and the views answer the real questions: which trigger fired first, which query ran 200 times, where the CPU went, how close you came to a governor limit.
Who builds it
ForceLens is designed and built by Prit Sakhvala, a Salesforce developer who got tired of reading logs the archaeological way. It's an independent product — not affiliated with or endorsed by Salesforce, Inc. "Salesforce", "Apex", and related marks belong to Salesforce, Inc.
The principles behind it
- Local-first. Logs are parsed in your browser and stored only in local browser storage. There is no ForceLens server that receives your data. Full details in the Trust Center.
- Bring your own key. AI explanations are optional and use your own API key (Claude, GPT, Groq, or OpenRouter); requests go directly from your browser to your provider. No middleman, no markup.
- Free, genuinely. No account, no subscription, no trial clock. The only thing you can ever pay for is your own AI provider's usage — and only if you enable AI features.
- Meet users where they are. Buttons appear on the Debug Logs list, log detail pages, the Developer Console, and Flow Builder — not in yet another tab you have to babysit.
