Features

Six things the AWS Console won't do for you.

Deploying one ECS service is solved. What nobody ships is the operations layer that comes after the tenth environment.

Scheduling

Stop the 24/7 bleed.

Run environments only when your team works. Per-env timezones. Weekends off by default. Most teams cut dev/staging spend by 65–77%.

Unified Fleet View

One screen, every environment.

Every ECS environment — status, cost, owner, last deploy. Services, databases, CI/CD branches. One screen. No more checking six different consoles.

Self-Service

Friday 6pm — your developer restarts staging without you.

Developers restart, redeploy, and view logs for their environments. Platform engineers go home on time.

Operational AI

When something breaks, get a fix in 8 seconds.

When a task fails, Fortem reads CloudWatch, checks IAM, and proposes the fix in 8 seconds. You approve. It applies.
