keep
The open-source AIOps and alert management platform
The Lens
By Erik Loyd, SaaS CEO and former COO/CFO of an AWS Premier Partner.
Updated Jun 2026
Keep pulls alerts from every monitoring tool you use into one screen. Datadog, Grafana, CloudWatch, PagerDuty, Sentry: it connects to all of them with bi-directional integrations. The real value is noise reduction. It deduplicates alerts, correlates related incidents, and enriches them with context so your on-call engineer is not drowning in redundant pages at 3am.
You get workflow automation that works like GitHub Actions for your monitoring stack: trigger responses, route alerts, escalate based on rules you define. The enterprise tier adds AI-powered correlation. Self-hosting gives you the full MIT-licensed core with unlimited alerts and integrations. The managed cloud starts free but caps you at 1 integration and 1 user, basically a demo. Growth tier at $199/month gets you 20 integrations and 10 users. PagerDuty and Opsgenie charge per-user and get expensive fast. Keep undercuts both if you self-host.
The catch: the free cloud tier is too limited to evaluate properly. You need to self-host or commit to Growth to really test it.
Free vs Self-Hosted vs Paid
open coreMIT-licensed core covers alert aggregation, deduplication, workflows, and all integrations when self-hosted. Enterprise features like AIOps correlation, RBAC, SSO, and HA live behind a commercial license in the ee/ directory. Managed cloud has three tiers: Startup (free - 1 user, 1 integration, 5 workflows), Growth ($199/month - 10 users, 20 integrations, 200 deduplicated alerts), and Enterprise (custom pricing - unlimited everything plus AI). Self-hosting the MIT core gives you unlimited users, integrations, and alerts with no per-seat fees. Compare that to PagerDuty at $21-41/user/month or Opsgenie at $9-35/user/month - Keep self-hosted is dramatically cheaper for teams over 5 people.
Self-host the MIT core for unlimited alert management at zero cost - the cloud tiers only make sense if you want managed infrastructure or enterprise AI features.
