How it works

Three commands. Done.

01

Slack command, done.

Type /status incident api degraded in your Slack channel. That's it. No dashboards to log into, no forms to fill.

02

Status page, live instantly.

StatLite auto-generates a branded status page at your subdomain the moment an incident is created. Always accurate, zero manual updates.

03

Users are notified automatically.

Subscribers get an instant email. When you resolve it, they hear immediately. No embarrassing Twitter complaints before users find out.

Why StatLite

Built for indie hackers, not enterprise.

You're a 1–3 person Slack-native team. You don't have an ops hire and you shouldn't need one. Statuspage charges $79–$299/month. StatLite is $9/mo and works right inside Slack.

Not another $79/month SaaS

If you're pre-Series A, paying $79–$299/month for a status page is absurd. StatLite starts at $9/mo — less than a lunch.

🚫

No ops engineer required

Traditional tools were built for DevOps teams with 5-figure tool budgets. StatLite is built for the solo founder who is also the CTO, the support team, and the on-call engineer.

Zero context-switching

You're already in Slack. Your incident response stays in Slack. No new tool to learn, no browser tab to open.

Pricing

Simple, honest pricing. No surprises.

Cancel anytime. Cheaper than one hour of an ops engineer.
