NewApp Watch: know when an app is running again
Sockit

Every app has an owner. Every access has a reason.

Sockit keeps a live inventory of what runs on your Windows, macOS and Linux machines, links each app to its owner, and manages who is in which Active Directory group, with approvals and a record of every change. Runs on your own server.

Connect your directory, watch every machine live, follow each change from request to approval, ask the assistant, and see the audit trail SOC 2 asks for.

Connects to the infrastructure you already use

Sockit reads from your machines and your directory, and alerts you through the tools you already use.

How it works

  1. Step 1

    Connect

    Sync your directory, and the agents roll out automatically.

    Connect Active Directory or Entra ID. Sockit sets up the Group Policy for you, so every Windows machine in the OU installs the agent, new ones included. Linux and Mac take a package.

    • Active Directory
    • Entra ID
    • Automatic rollout
    • Group Policy
    • .deb and .rpm
    • .pkg

  2. Step 2

    Map

    See which app every process belongs to.

    Sockit links each process to its app and maps what every app connects to.

    • Process attribution
    • Dependencies
    • Tech stack
    • Log discovery

  3. Step 3

    Explain

    AI reads the logs and names the cause.

    When errors spike, AI reads the log lines and tells you the likely cause and how sure it is.

    • Log triage
    • Crash analysis
    • Confidence
    • Evidence lines

  4. Step 4

    Act

    Problems go straight to the person who owns the app.

    A Case opens with the cause and goes to the owner. Auto-Recovery can restart what failed.

    • Cases
    • Owner routing
    • Auto-Recovery
    • Windows Update

From a failing process to the person who owns it

Sockit links people, computers and apps, so a failing process leads straight to its owner.

  • A live map of who owns what

    Your directory's people and computers, linked to the apps they own.

  • The cause, read from the app's logs

    When errors spike, AI reads the logs and names the likely cause.

  • Every change is checked first

    The agent that watches can't change anything. Changes go through a second agent.

Ask why an app is down

Ask in plain words. It answers from your live data, sees only what you can see, and logs every lookup.

Pin it to keep it

Self-heals before failures become outages

When a service or app stops, Sockit restarts it. If it keeps failing, it stops trying and hands over to a person.

  1. 1

    Notices

    • A watched service stops
    • A process disappears
    • An app is removed or changes version
    • A health check fails

  2. 2

    Acts

    • Restarts the service
    • Restarts the process
    • Reinstalls the known-good version
    • Runs your approved script

  3. 3

    Holds back

    • A few tries, then it stops
    • Waits before it tries again
    • Pauses if too many machines fail at once
    • Can be turned off per environment

  4. 4

    Hands over

    • Gives up and opens a Case
    • Tells the app's owner
    • AI explains the crash
    • A person decides what next

What Sockit was built for

Deploy

From install to a full inventory

The problem

Most companies run Windows, Mac and Linux, but most tools only manage one of them.

What Sockit does

Sockit installs on your server, connects your directory and rolls its agent out to all three.

  1. 1Connect

    Your directory syncs people, managers and groups.

  2. 2Roll out

    Group Policy installs the Windows agent; Linux and Mac use a package.

    AI sorts every app into yours or third-party.
