Free does more than we were saying

Push, Slack and generic webhook alerts have always worked on the free plan, and the public status page has never been paywalled — the pricing page said otherwise. Corrected: SMS is the only channel Solo adds. Provider lists across the site now come from the live integration catalog rather than being maintained by hand, so what you read on the homepage is what the product actually connects.

Notification destinations and stacks became manageable objects

Notifications and stacks share one settings pattern — a readiness summary, grouped rows, creation in a modal and focused editing in a drawer. Multiple email addresses and devices stay separate rows instead of expanding the page into a form. A stack that is not finished set up says what is left, and stops saying it once telemetry arrives.

Realtime updates, and AWS withdrawn

Screens now update over a websocket, with the existing poll kept as the backup — a dead socket costs a little latency and never silence.

Analytics on the marketing site

Plausible now counts visits to beaam.app — cookieless, EU-hosted, no cross-site identifier, no IP address stored, and never loaded inside the application. Announced here rather than added quietly, because the subprocessors page promises exactly that; it is listed there with what it receives. The same update corrected a stale data-residency line: the control-plane database moved to us-east-1 on 3 August and the page still said Mumbai.
