About incident.io
incident.io is a UK-built incident management platform for on-call, response, and status pages — rolled into one AI-native workflow. The platform's AI SRE investigates alerts in-flight, drafts PR-ready fixes, and suggests next steps, while AI-native post-mortems turn raw incident data into a full retrospective draft in minutes so engineers can get back to shipping instead of writing reports.
Alerts route through configurable schedules and fire directly into Slack or Microsoft Teams, where responders run the full incident lifecycle without leaving chat — opening channels, pulling service-catalog context, triggering workflows, and publishing customer updates to automated status pages. An insights dashboard surfaces recurring noise, broken runbooks, and team-level MTTR trends across every connected tool.
Key benefits:
- On-call scheduling with rotations, escalation policies, and a mobile app for paging
- AI SRE that investigates alerts and summarizes next steps as incidents unfold
- Slack & Teams response — channel orchestration, role assignment, and timeline capture
- AI-generated post-mortems turning incident data into a data-rich retrospective draft
- Automated status pages that publish customer updates the moment severity shifts
- Service catalog surfacing ownership, dependencies, and runbooks during live incidents
- Insights dashboard tracking MTTR, alert volume, and noise reduction across teams
- Workflows engine automating paging, comms, JIRA tickets, and follow-up tasks

Trusted by Netflix, Airbnb, Linear, Intercom, Etsy, Square, Vanta, Skyscanner, and WorkOS — ideal for SRE and platform teams that need structured, AI-assisted incident response without duct-taping three tools together.
Why choose incident.io over StatusPage?
The decisive argument is data jurisdiction. StatusPage is headquartered in AU, which means personal data processed through it can be subject to non-EU legal regimes — the US CLOUD Act, FISA 702, or similar laws depending on the provider. After the 2020 Schrems II ruling, EU organisations must carry out a transfer impact assessment for every such data flow.
incident.io removes that overhead. As a United Kingdom-based provider, it operates natively under GDPR, and data stays inside the EU/EEA by default. For regulated sectors — health, public administration, finance — that's not a nice-to-have but a requirement. For everyone else, it's concentration-risk insurance: you avoid depending on a single non-EU jurisdiction that can change the rules without warning.
