FireHydrant
What it is
FireHydrant combines on-call scheduling, alerting, automation, incident response, and retrospectives in one incident management platform. Runbooks can create Slack channels, launch Zoom meetings, open Jira tickets, and post incident updates. Its service catalog maps services and components to owners and can sync ownership and metadata from other systems. Signals supports rotations, escalation policies, alert routing, and notifications through SMS, voice, push, email, Slack, and other channels. Teams can page, acknowledge, escalate, and hand off alerts from Slack or Microsoft Teams. FireHydrant AI can generate incident summaries and status page updates, transcribe video meetings, provide incident context, and draft retrospectives. Analytics track MTTA, MTTM, and resolution time. Integrations include Slack, Microsoft Teams, Jira Cloud, Datadog, AWS CloudWatch, GitHub, ServiceNow, Zoom, and Terraform. The free plan costs nothing and allows up to 10 responders, two runbooks, three integrations, a Slack and Teams chatbot, and one public status page. Pro costs $25 a month per responder, billed annually; a 14-day Pro trial requires no credit card.
