incident.io vs Wachd

incident.io is a software reliability platform for investigating, responding to, and preventing incidents. Its on-call tools route alerts and support schedules, escalation, and alert insights.

The pricing comparison says Investigations requires Response. Status Pages can update customers as incidents progress. Listed integrations include Jira, Linear, GitHub, GitLab, PagerDuty, Datadog, Grafana, Zoom, Google Meet, and Slack. The company states that it is SOC 2 Type I and II and GDPR compliant, and that customer data is encrypted using AES-256. It also says it conducts annual third-party penetration tests and weekly vulnerability scans. Basic is free; Team is $15 per user per month with annual billing. Standalone On-call is $20 per user per month, and Pro is $25 per user per month. Enterprise pricing is by custom proposal and includes a listed 99.99% uptime SLA. Interfaces include web, Slack, Teams, mobile, and desktop.

Wachd is a free, open-source incident alert and diagnosis service for DevOps and SRE teams. It receives monitoring alerts, gathers nearby operational context, and sends an AI-generated root-cause diagnosis to the on-call engineer. Context can include the last 10 GitHub commits, 30 minutes of Loki or Datadog error logs, and metric history around the alert. Supported AI backends include in-cluster Ollama, vLLM, OpenAI-compatible models, Claude, OpenAI, and Gemini. On-call schedules support primary, secondary, and custom rotations, time restrictions, and self-service overrides. Notifications can use SMS, voice, email, or Slack, with escalation for unacknowledged alerts and cancellation after resolution. Wachd runs in the customer's Kubernetes cluster, can keep incident data inside its VPC, and supports air-gapped in-cluster deployments. It says emails, IP addresses, API keys, and account IDs are stripped before AI processing. The Apache 2.0 plan costs nothing and has no licence fees.
