Hexmoor questions,
answered plainly
What exactly is Hexmoor and how does it work?
Hexmoor is a shared workspace where teams keep every draft of the software they are building. Each change lands as a small, reviewable proposal, so anyone can read the reasoning, leave notes, and roll a decision back later without losing the history behind it.
Where do I check whether Hexmoor is up?
Our live health board reports each service on its own line, with incident notes written by the on-call engineer as they work. You can subscribe to a single service if you only care about one part of the platform.
Why do so many teams end up here?
Mostly because the review conversation lives beside the change itself. New joiners can read six months of decisions in an afternoon instead of asking around, and nobody has to guess which copy of a file is the current one.
Who is Hexmoor built for?
Anyone who edits work that other people depend on: engineers, data teams, technical writers, and the designers who ship tokens alongside them. Solo builders use the free workspace; larger groups add roles and audit trails.
Is it only useful for source code?
No. Plenty of workspaces hold contracts, lesson plans, hardware drawings, and research notebooks. If a file is text-shaped and changes over time, the same review flow applies to it.
What does Hexmoor change about my day?
Less chasing. Work waiting on you sits in one queue, automated checks run before a human ever looks, and a change that passes review goes out without a separate handoff meeting.
Is version history the same thing as Hexmoor?
They are related but not identical. Version history is the underlying record of who changed what; Hexmoor is the workspace built on top of it, adding review, permissions, automation, and search.
Do I need to know version control first?
Not to begin. The web editor commits for you with a plain-language description. Most people pick up branches and merges in their first fortnight, and the guided walkthrough covers both.
How well protected is the work I keep here?
Everything is encrypted in transit and at rest, private workspaces stay private by default, and secret-scanning flags credentials before they reach a shared branch. We publish our audit reports and breach-notification timelines in full.
Can I use Hexmoor without paying?
Yes. The free plan covers unlimited public and private workspaces for up to six collaborators, with 1,400 automation minutes a month. Paid tiers add advanced roles, longer retention, and priority support.
Who owns and funds Hexmoor?
Hexmoor Labs is an independent company held by its founders and employees, funded by subscription revenue and a single growth round raised in 2023. No customer data is sold or shared with advertisers.
What is the quickest way to get started?
Create a workspace, import an existing folder or start an empty one, and invite two colleagues. The first-week checklist walks you through a review, an automated check, and a release in about forty minutes.
