Vercel project integration
Connect a Vercel account token to populate projects automatically with deployment data and related metrics from the Vercel API.
FATHER
FATHER is a native macOS dashboard for teams monitoring websites deployed on Vercel. It tracks deployments, uptime, and speed metrics, with menu-bar status and notifications for build activity or issues; non-Vercel sites can be added for basic checks.
Vercel deployment and site monitoring on Mac
FATHER is a native macOS monitoring dashboard for teams that deploy websites through Vercel. It brings project deployments, uptime, and speed metrics into one view, with live data supplied through the Vercel API after a Vercel account token is connected.
The app is designed for monitoring an active group of sites rather than checking each project separately. It tracks build progress, flags failed deployments, shows menu-bar status, and sends notifications when attention is needed. Sites hosted outside Vercel can also be added manually, although the source describes those entries as supporting basic status checks only.
Monitoring and deployment features
Live deploy tracking
Watch builds progress live and identify failed deployments as they occur.
Fleet dashboard
Review status, uptime, and response information for the monitored fleet from a single screen.
Manual checks for other hosts
Keep an eye on sites hosted outside Vercel through manually added basic status checks.
Menu-bar status
See a menu-bar dot while builds are running and a red indicator when attention is needed.
Background alerts
Receive notifications while the dashboard is closed, so issues do not depend on keeping the main window open.
Practical use cases
Monitor a Vercel site fleet
Keep deployments, uptime, and response information visible for several Vercel projects without opening each project separately.
Watch production releases
Use live build progress and failure indicators to identify a deployment problem soon after it occurs.
Monitor while working elsewhere
Rely on the menu-bar indicator and background notifications when the main monitoring dashboard is not open.
Keep external sites in view
Add a non-Vercel-hosted site for a basic availability check alongside Vercel-connected projects.
