About

OpsLevel is a developer portal platform that gives engineering organizations visibility into the services they operate, who owns them, and how mature they are relative to internal engineering standards. At its core, OpsLevel maintains a service catalog that maps every microservice, repository, and infrastructure component to a team owner, populating metadata automatically from integrations with GitHub, GitLab, PagerDuty, Datadog, and cloud providers. This catalog becomes the authoritative source of truth for answering questions like who to contact about a service, what tier of reliability it requires, and what dependencies it has — questions that are often unanswerable at engineering organizations that have grown past the point where everyone knows everything.
