Keep – Create production alerts from plain English
Hi Hacker News! Shahar and Tal from Keep Here. We were tired of creating alerts for our applications, so we've built an open-source GitHub Bot that lets you write application alerts using plain English. The code is open-sourced: https://github.com/keephq/keep so you can review it yourself. Every developer and DevOps professional is familiar with the fact that in order to ensure your application works in production, you need to access your observability tool's user interface (such as Grafana, Datadog, New Relic, etc.) and carefully determine how to create alerts that…
Keep – Create production alerts from plain English launched on June 7, 2023 with 46 votes, #1,485 of 4,655 launches that month and more than 90% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 3 years on.
In plain words
Keep is an open-source GitHub bot that allows developers and DevOps professionals to create production alerts using plain English instead of navigating observability tool interfaces. When a pull request is opened, the bot generates alerts by combining plain-language descriptions with existing alert configurations from tools like Grafana, Datadog, or New Relic. This streamlines alert creation for teams managing application monitoring in production environments.

Keep – GitHub Actions for your monitoring tools2023 · github.com · ▲181Hi Hacker News! Shahar and Tal from Keep here. A few months ago, we introduced here at HN (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34806482) Keep as an “open source alerting CLI” and got some interesting feedback - mainly around UI, automation, and supporting more tools. We were VERY early back then, and we understood that although the current DX around creating alerts is not great, it's not that critical and developers don’t need another tool just for that. But we did find something else. While talking to developers and devops, we found that a lot of companies use many tools…
Keep – Open-source alerting CLI2023 · github.com · ▲65Hi Hacker News! Shahar and Tal from Keep here. We're thrilled to announce that we're open-sourcing our alerting CLI tool, Keep (https://github.com/keephq/keep). Designed by developers for developers, Keep streamlines and simplifies alerting, making it a first-class citizen within the development process. Think of Keep as Prometheus Alertmanager but for all observability tools, with a simple and intuitive (GitHub actions-like) syntax. We believe that alerting has historically been neglected in existing monitoring platforms, leading to subpar alerting practices. With Keep,…

Talanoa▲340Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

Heya HN, I've been working on a reddit-like platform as my primary side project for the last few years. Doing a (very) soft launch today, mainly because I want to use it to encourage discussion of alternatives. How non.io works: 1. Free to browse, paid to interact. 2. Minimum subscription is $2 (though you can choose more). I take $1 to run the servers, everything left gets split evenly between everything you upvote that month. It's a simple model, but I hope it's a better one than the freemium model we've been relying on for the last few years. Fundamentally I feel like any ad-supported…
