Keep — The open-source alerts management and automation platform

Keep makes it easy to consolidate all your alerts into a single pane of glass and to orchestrate workflows to automate your end-to-end processes. Think of Keep like GitHub Actions for monitoring tools / Datadog Workflow Automation for any monitoring tool.

Hi Product Hunters! Shahar and Tal from Keep here 👋 A few months ago, we introduced here at Product Hunt (https://www.producthunt.com/prod...) Keep as an “open source alerting CLI” and got some interesting feedback - mainly around UI, automation, and supporting more tools. We were VERY early back then, and we understood that although the current DX around creating alerts is not great, it's not that critical and developers don’t need another tool just for that. But we did find something else 💡. While talking to developers and DevOps, we found out that a lot of companies use many tools that generate alerts - from Cloudwatch, Prometheus, Grafana, and Datadog to tools such as Zabbix or Nagios. We definitely agree consolidation in the observability space is a real thing, but while talking to those companies we feel that there are still real use cases for having more than one tool (and for reference, according to Grafana’s 2023 observability survey, 52% of the companies uses more than 6 observability tools https://grafana.com/observabilit...). So we that in mind, we rebuilt Keep with this simple mindset ⚒️: 1. Integrate with every tool that triggers alerts - it can be either pushing alerts to Keep via webhooks or routing policies or Keep to pull alerts via the tools API. 2. Create a simple abstraction layer to run workflows on top of these alerts. 3. Maintain a great DX: open source, API-first, workflows as code and generally having a developer mindset while building Keep. While rebuilding, Datadog 🐶 released their workflow automation tool (https://docs.datadoghq.com/servi...) which led us to the understanding that this is exactly what we solve - but for everyone who uses tools other than Datadog. How does it work? 1. Connect your tools: Connect everything from monitoring platforms to databases and ticketing systems. 2. Set up Workflows: Initiate automated workflows in response to alerts or based on custom intervals. 3. Operational efficiency: Automate your alert handling to focus your team's efforts on what really matters. Why Keep? 1. Centralized dashboard: Manage all your alerts across different platforms in a single interface. 2. Noise reduction: Deduplicate and correlate alerts to reduce alert fatigue. 3. Automation: Trigger workflows for alert enrichment and response. 4. Developer-first: Keep is API-first and lets you manage your workflows as code. 5. Works with every tool: Plenty of supported providers and more to come. Check out this short demo
You can start now and try it yourself by signing into https://platform.keephq.dev or by self-hosting using our open source repository.

Pretty cool. What is a typical alert for this service?

@sentry_co we're talking mainly around infrastructure/software alerts (E.g. cpu is high or 5xx response code) but definitely thinking that "business" (or more complex) alerts fits in!

@shahar_glazner2 Product looks great! Creating workflows and automating process is quite helpful :)
Olena Shabunina
Great idea! Congratulations
Marc Klingen
Keep looks great. Do you offer a way to integrate tools that do not provide alerts via API/Webhook? (eg via email only)
Tal Borenstein
Maker
@marc_klingen that's a real interesting use case actually. we haven't done anything like that until now but would love to implement that ASAP if that could be useful for you. would you like to hop on a quick chat? I'd love to learn the use case better.

looks like an interesting product

Very very cool idea @talbo
Adam Blanchard
Looks fab! Looking forward to following the launch. Love the idea and the simple philosophy behind it. If it's quick to set up, i think you'll be on to something - so people can test it free and quickly.

@adam_blanchard we're working on making onboarding as simple as possible. 1-click to connect & install Keep inside the providers (we handle everything from integration creation and monitors required modifications).
Vincent Lonij
This sounds really valuable. I really like the idea of having a broader array of actions that I can configure in response to an alert.

@vincentropy that's exactly it! would love to help with onboarding and product demo if you want :)

@matan_mishan happy to help with onboarding, pinging you to schedule something :)
Sandra Djajic
Launching soon!
It is actually such a great idea! So many alerts from so many apps that it's hard to keep updated and manage all of them. Congratulations on the launch :)

@sandradjajic Thank you! that's the play :)

Looks cool! Congrats on the launch :)

I have been using the Keep OSS for a couple of months now, and seeing the team building it into a fully functional offer is exciting. Keep has already been offered a game-changer value for developers who deal with overwhelming monitoring data, and the new end-to-end workflow offer is the only thing missing in this market. Well done!

@darya_antonyuk a lot more providers, better integrations with all the big monitoring players, more capabilities around workflows and continuing to grow the OSS community!
