Slack alerts for downtime and missed crons

Downtime and missed cron runs land in the channel you already watch. Signed payloads, sub-5-second delivery, and retries when Slack hiccups.

// connect in minutes

01

Create an incoming webhook

Add an incoming webhook in your Slack workspace and copy the URL. One webhook per channel keeps routing obvious.

02

Paste it as an alert channel

Add the URL to any monitor or heartbeat. A test button fires a sample payload so you can confirm formatting before anything breaks.

03

Trust what arrives

Every delivery is HMAC-signed with retries and backoff, so a lost or forged alert is a non-event.

{
  "event": "check.failed",
  "check": "api-prod",
  "region": "iad",
  "signature": "hmac-sha256=9f2c"
}

Unlimited Slack alerting on every plan, $19 flat, free during beta.

Frequently asked questions

Which Slack webhook type do I need?

Is it free during the beta?

Yes, everything is free during the beta, and waitlist members lock $19/mo forever at launch.
