Status pages that ship in one click

Ship an incident
before the first
tweet lands.

Beacon is a one-page status-page service built for engineers who resent setting up status pages. Public pages are zero JavaScript, 14KB of HTML, rendered at the edge. Writing an incident takes one command, one form or one Slack reply — and pushes everywhere at once.

Try the incident creator

~/acme — beacon --watch

$ beacon init

Three principles

Everything a status page should be.

01 /

Zero JS on the public page.

HTMX + server-rendered. Your users load 14KB of HTML over a worldwide edge. Status pages are for when things are on fire; the last thing they need is framework hydration.

02 /

One command to post.

beacon post "api latency" from your terminal. Public page, Slack, webhook and email land in parallel. Under two seconds end-to-end.

Memory that lasts forever.

Every probe landed into Timescale for-ever. No 30-day rolling window that politely forgets your worst week. Export-anywhere, delete on request.
