A letter from our founder.

Dear reader,

At some point, you've been the person who found out about the outage from a customer. It's a terrible feeling. Not because outages happen, but because you know you should have known first.

That's the moment Sola was built for.

The tools that existed were too complex, too noisy, or too slow. Engineering teams were missing the alerts that mattered most. We believed the gap between "something is wrong" and "the right person knows about it" could be a lot smaller than it was.

So we built Sola. Fast detection, clear alerts, the right person paged every time. No guesswork, no finding out from a customer.

meet the team

We're obsessed with making sure you're never the last to know.

We're a small, focused team of engineers, designers, and operators who care deeply about the infrastructure that modern software runs on.

Our ethos

What we believe.

These are the principles that shape how we build, how we hire, and how we treat the people who trust us.

Simplicity is a feature

Complex tools create complexity. We obsess over making Sola easy to understand and fast to act on.

Speed over perfection

We'd rather ship something good today than something perfect in six months. Momentum matters.
