Visit Cachet

Cachet is an open-source status page system for communicating service downtime, outages, and planned maintenance to customers and stakeholders. It is designed to be self-hosted on an organization's own infrastructure, with a JSON API that allows monitoring tools to automate incident reporting.

Key features include custom metrics charts, scheduled maintenance updates, multilingual support for 10+ languages, two-factor authentication, and password manager integration. The current 3.x version is being rebuilt with Laravel, Tailwind, and Filament. Cachet is free to self-host, and professional installation services are available for businesses.
