Frequently asked questions

Yes. The OSS Hero plan is free for eligible open-source projects. We only ask that you keep the small attribution badge visible on your public status page.

Yes, custom domains are supported. For very high-traffic projects we may request DNS at your side to manage costs and performance.

That's awesome! If your usage becomes commercial, we'll help you transition to a paid plan that matches your new scale — your status page keeps running.

If you have real users and actively maintain the project, we're interested. If it's just a weekend toy with no adoption yet, this program probably isn't the right fit – we want to focus OSS Hero on projects that other people rely on.

Most applications are reviewed within a few business days. We may reach out if we need more information about your project.

Stop paying for monitoring out of pocket.

If your open-source project keeps other people online, OSS Hero will keep your monitoring, incidents and status page running for free.
