First steps

From sign-up to your first alert in five minutes.

SignalOkay watches the services you depend on and warns you when they fail, when the company announces a problem or when maintenance is scheduled. You need three things: a group of services, a channel and a rule.

1. Pick your services

In Services and groups, press New group, name it (for example, Production) and pick the services your team uses. You can search by name, company or words like bank.

2. Connect a channel

In Channels, the quickest is email: one click on Connect email. Then press Send test to confirm it arrives.

3. Create a rule

In Alert rules, press New rule. Describe what you want in one sentence and AI builds it, or pick a template like Major outages in office hours.
