GrantSSH is simple usage-based pricing. First server and first 2 team members are free. After that it’s per server and per team member, with no plans or contracts. grantssh.com/pricing

Temporary SSH access should actually be temporary. Give someone access for the project, incident, or maintenance window, then let it expire without relying on calendar reminders. grantssh.com/features

We didn’t build GrantSSH because SSH is broken. SSH is great. The messy bit is access: adding/removing people, temporary access, old keys, and knowing who logged in. That’s what we wanted to solve without turning it into an enterprise project. grantssh.com/blog/building-grantssh

Building GrantSSH: Why We Made a Simple SSH Access Tool - GrantSSH
SSH access quietly becomes a mess as teams grow. Here is why we built GrantSSH - a simple way to manage keys and visibility without replacing SSH or taking over your infrastructure.

Pleased I've gone with a different colour scheme than my usual blue / green, for hosted.md The use of red as the primary colour feels like a breath of fresh air for me. #buildinpublic Got to thank @rickmills.uk for the inspiration.

Personally not a fan of Volt but can live with/work around that. Losing Teams, API management and 2FA and partially farming those out to a product that costs $100 a month if you dont want someone elses branding feels like a bit of a backwards step IMO. Hopefully unsupported Jetstream doesnt break!

Been a little quiet on here lately...still working away on SayIt.Now, but may have got slightly sidetracked with NativePHP and building out stuff like push notifications, NFC read/write and In App Puchase support 🤩

Ditto. Sadly its really the only option for many, nothings really come close to the AMS yet. I know the K2 and CFS are getting there but still seeing people having lots of issues. Just wish Prusa would make an actual AMS competitor as the MMU still feels like a tinkering hobby.

End goal would be so that our customers can push the collected customer feedback from our product into their CRM or other system they use to manage information, be it Airtable, Notion, Google Drive, etc. Guess its working out if that cost trade off is worth it though as it could get expensive!
210
Rick Mills @rickmills.uk · 03/01/2025
Yes this was the thinking, making it so data could be shared between our platform and others. So things like captured customer feedback could be pushed to Airtable, Notion, etc without needing specific integrations writing on our end. Felt like it might be a win-win for us and our customers.

In an effort to get the widget filesize on sayit.now as tiny as possible for your end users I've been tinkering and tweaking and think I've hit a winner now. Swapped out handlebars template rendering for lodash.template and dropped the filesize down by 65% 💪 #buildinpublic
