Getting started

Create a ServerMetry account, set up an organization, and add your first server.

1. Create an account

Open servermetry.com/login and sign in with email OTP or a passkey. There is no password login.

2. Create an organization

After the first sign-in, onboarding asks you to create an organization. All servers, alerts, and billing belong to that organization.

3. Add a server

In the dashboard:

  1. Go to ServersAdd server
  2. Give the server a name (and optional project)
  3. Copy the generated install command — it already includes your API URL and server key

4. Install the agent

Run the install command on the target host. Details for Linux/macOS and Windows are in Agent install.

Once the agent reports in, the server status updates in the dashboard (typically within one minute).

5. Optional next steps

  • Configure alert rules and notification channels
  • Connect MCP so Cursor or Claude can query your fleet
  • Review plan limits under Billing if you need more servers
