Public postmortem linked from resolved incident
Publish a plain-language postmortem after the incident resolves so the trust recovery has a durable page instead of one fading status update.
Why this can grow a startup
A resolved status incident closes the alarm. It does not automatically rebuild confidence. The teams that recover best give customers a durable explanation of what happened, what was affected, and what changed afterward. Statuspage supports publishing a postmortem tied to the incident record, which turns the apology into a searchable artifact. That helps support and sales answer follow-up questions with one link, keeps the story consistent across accounts, and shows serious buyers that the company can explain failure without hiding behind vague reassurance.
Company example
Statuspage lets teams create a postmortem after an incident, attach it to the incident timeline, and make the write-up available on the public page.

When to use it
Use this when Brand, Support, Sales is relevant to trust recovery, enterprise sales, incident comms and you can run a bounded test with a low budget.
When not to use it
Do not use it as a substitute for customer evidence, a clear owner, or a measurable stop condition. Local platform rules and market behavior still need checking.
