What happened
Built replaced PagerDuty with incident.io for paging, on-call and the rest of the incident lifecycle. Timelines and follow-ups that were previously written by hand are now generated automatically from Slack history and call transcripts, and incidents are run through Slack.

Timeline generation now happens automatically from Slack history and call transcripts. What used to be a post-incident obligation became something that looked after itself.
As an incident manager, I can focus on the incident and not the paperwork. I can focus on the problem. I don't have to worry about documenting the steps that we did; I can have it auto-generated. That has been just night and day.
