The integrations that matter for customer ops. Not 200 logos.
Slack, SMS, and a small API — built properly, described honestly. If something's not here yet, this page says so.
We'd rather ship a handful of integrations you'll actually use than a directory you'll scroll past. Here's exactly what's wired up today.
Slack, both directions.
Connect a Slack workspace and incident updates post straight into the channel you choose. The first message opens a thread, and every update on that incident replies in the same thread instead of spamming the channel.
The part most tools skip: it syncs back. When someone replies in the Slack thread, that reply shows up against the incident inside StayUpfront, with the right person's name and avatar, not a raw user ID. The conversation your team is already having in Slack becomes part of the incident record, automatically.
Route it the way you work: send critical incidents to one channel and everything else to another, or split by which part of your product is affected. Each Slack channel is just another place a notification rule can point.
Bidirectional thread sync. Updates post to a Slack thread; replies in that thread sync back to the incident.
Per-channel routing. Point any notification rule at any Slack channel: by severity, by component, by visibility.
Knows who's talking. A cached Slack user directory means synced replies show the real person, not an ID.
Get paged by SMS when it matters.
When an incident fires, the people who need to know can get a text, not just an email that's buried by morning. Add SMS as a delivery method on any notification rule, and it routes alongside email, voice, and Slack.
Numbers are verified before anything's sent, so a typo doesn't quietly swallow your alerts. And delivery fails over between providers automatically, because the one time you actually need the text to land is during an incident.
A small API for your scheduled jobs.
One endpoint, for the jobs that run when no one's watching.
Ping a heartbeat URL from a cron job or scheduled task, and you find out when the job that should've run at 2am didn't. Lock it down with an API key, or leave it open — your call.
Authenticate with a typed API key, and that's it. It's not a full platform API. There's no "create an incident from your app" endpoint. It's the practical stuff: get your scheduled jobs into StayUpfront without clicking through a UI.

Where this goes next.
This list grows with the product. The integrations that get built next are the ones early customers actually ask for. That's genuinely how we decide, not a roadmap slide.
A couple of quieter ones are already wired up: outgoing webhooks (signed, for piping incidents into your own systems) and Telegram alerts.
If the thing you need to connect isn't here, tell us when you sign up. The short list today is honest about where we are. It isn't where we'll always be.
Want something connected? Get in early and ask.
Private beta is a few weeks out, and I'm letting people in a small group at a time. The integrations that get built next come from what early customers actually need, so the earlier you're in, the more say you have in what we wire up. Drop your email and tell me what you'd want connected.
