# Less alert noise, nothing missed

> Alert fatigue comes from treating every error as an alert. Pagerless treats every error as evidence and decides, per problem, whether anyone needs to know.

## Four ways it stays quiet

1. **Grouping.** 400 identical errors are one problem.
2. **Baselines.** An error rate that is normal for your app is logged, not sent.
3. **Levels.** Most problems are tell (one message, after quiet hours) or log (weekly email only).
4. **One escalation per problem.** A problem never pages twice in parallel.

## And the one way it never does

Floors: app silent, crash loop, 5xx burst, payments failing. They always wake someone, and a failed or unsure decision is never quieter than tell.
