The Problem

PagerDuty costs $21–$41/user/mo — $50K+/yr for a 100-person team. Opsgenie was acquired by Atlassian and getting worse. Alert fatigue is the #1 SRE complaint. Post-mortems are written in Google Docs and never referenced again. Incident timelines are reconstructed from memory. Escalation policies are complex to configure.

The Solution

Modern incident management platform with on-call scheduling, intelligent alert routing, real-time incident timeline, and structured post-mortems — at 60% the cost of PagerDuty with a better developer experience.

Target Audience

Engineering teams outgrowing basic alerting, SRE teams needing structured incident response, and on-call engineers wanting better alert routing and escalation

Why Now?

PagerDuty's pricing creates opportunity. SRE is mainstream. Alert fatigue demands smarter routing. Post-mortems need structure. Companies want modern UX at reasonable prices.

Revenue Model

Free: 5 users, basic alerting. Pro: $9/user/mo (scheduling + escalation). Team: $19/user/mo (post-mortems + status page). Enterprise: $29/user/mo (SSO + SLA + analytics). Annual: 20% discount.

Competitive Landscape

PagerDuty

Incident management. $21–$41/user/mo, market leader, expensive

Opsgenie (Atlassian)

Alert management. $9–$29/user/mo, Atlassian ecosystem, declining

Incident.io
