Incidents happen. How you handle them is what matters. Rootly is an AI-powered incident management platform that integrates with Slack, PagerDuty, Opsgenie, Jira, Google Docs, and a bunch more to automate the entire incident lifecycle.

From the moment an alert fires to the post-incident retrospective, Rootly automates the repetitive stuff: creating incident channels, paging the right people, tracking timelines, generating status updates, and compiling postmortem reports. The AI handles the workflow so your team can focus on actually fixing things.

The Slack-native approach is key. Your team already lives in Slack during incidents — Rootly just makes that experience smarter. AI-suggested actions, automated status pages, smart routing to the right responders based on the type of incident.

Postmortem generation is genuinely useful. Instead of spending hours compiling what happened, when, and why after the adrenaline fades, Rootly builds the report automatically from the incident timeline and team actions.

Free tier for small teams. Paid plans start at $20/month per user with full integration suite. Used by engineering teams that take reliability seriously and want to reduce incident overhead without adding process bloat.

Frequently asked

7 questions
How does Rootly's AI decide which team members to page during an incident?
Rootly's AI looks at what kind of incident you're dealing with and how serious it is. Then it checks who's on-call and what their expertise areas are. The AI also learns from past incidents -- so if Sarah always handles database issues, it'll suggest paging her for similar problems. You can set up your own routing rules too, but the system gets smarter as it watches how your team responds.
Can I use Rootly if my team doesn't use Slack for incident response?
Honestly? You'd be missing out on most of what makes Rootly useful. It's built around Slack as the main hub -- that's where incident coordination happens and where the AI makes its suggestions. Sure, it connects to PagerDuty and Jira, but without Slack you're basically just getting basic integrations. Teams or Discord users should probably look elsewhere.
What specific information does Rootly include in its automated postmortem reports?
The AI grabs everything -- your complete incident timeline, all the Slack chatter from the incident channel, what actions people took, and how you fixed things. It'll also include which systems got hit, how long you were down, and who got escalated to. Reports generate automatically, but you can edit them before sending to stakeholders (which is smart since AI isn't perfect).
How accurate are Rootly's AI-suggested actions during active incidents?
It starts pretty basic but gets way better over time. At first, you'll see generic runbook suggestions. But after a few weeks? The AI starts connecting the dots -- like "hey, this looks similar to that database issue from last month, try restarting the replica first." Important note: it won't actually do anything automatically. It just tells you what might work based on similar past incidents.
Does the free tier of Rootly include the AI features or just basic incident tracking?
You get some AI stuff for free -- automated channel creation and timeline tracking work fine. But the fancy features like smart routing and detailed postmortems? That's paid tier starting at $20/month per user. Small teams can still get decent value from the free version if you just need simple incident management.
Can Rootly automatically update external status pages when incidents occur?
Yep! It'll push updates to Statuspage.io or your custom status page when incidents get declared or resolved. The AI writes customer-friendly updates based on your incident details and templates. You can review before publishing or -- if you're feeling brave -- set it to auto-publish for certain incident types.
What happens to Rootly's incident data if I integrate it with existing tools like Jira or PagerDuty?
Everything syncs both ways. Someone updates a Jira ticket? Shows up in Rootly's timeline. Acknowledge a PagerDuty alert? Rootly sees it. The AI uses all this connected data to build the full incident picture -- which means better suggestions and more complete reports. It's pretty seamless once you get it set up.
