Spectate
Spectate monitors websites, APIs, servers, infrastructure, and applications, and provides tools for managing incidents. Website checks track uptime and performance, run globally, capture screenshots, and alert on SSL certificate expiry. A custom-built server agent is described as open source, dependency-free, and designed to add no server load. Incident features include merging incidents, collaboration, AI-assisted root cause analysis, postmortems, interactive alerts, and status page publishing. Status pages support branding, custom domains, user issue reports, subscriptions, and postmortems. Alerts can go through Slack, Discord, or Pushover, or be sent by voice or SMS. Spectate is available on Android, iOS, and web. The free Hobby tier allows five monitors or servers and one status page. Paid tiers list monitor or server limits from 15 to 250; Solo is $12.00 per month, billed $144 yearly. On-call scheduling and incident escalation policies are marked as coming soon.
