DeployBar
CI monitoring + platypus snark
Only for Mac
Free · In‑App Purchases
Mac
DeployBar lives in your menu bar and watches your GitHub Actions, GitLab CI/CD pipelines, and Vercel deployments so you don't have to. It's free. The catch is Billie.
Billie the Platypus is a corporate platypus in a tie who lives in your menu bar and roasts your commits with unsolicited one-liners. He comments on your branch names. He has opinions about your deploy frequency. He cannot be fired. He ships with the app.
Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
Sign in with GitHub, GitLab, or Vercel. DeployBar auto-discovers repos you've pushed to and monitors their CI status. No repo lists to configure. No YAML. No rituals.
When everything passes, the icon goes idle — the app functionally disappears. When something fails, it turns red and stays red until you explicitly acknowledge it. Billie's commentary gets noticeably harsher on failures. No more "wait, that broke last Tuesday?"
FREE (FOREVER):
- Auto-discovers repos from your recent GitHub activity
- Monitors GitHub Actions workflow runs, GitLab CI/CD runs, and Vercel deployments
- Failures persist until acknowledged — no silent breakage
- Successes auto-dismiss — zero noise on the happy path
- Native macOS notifications with one-click jump to the failed run
- Billie the Platypus at "Normal" intensity — you cannot turn him off
- Configurable polling from 15 seconds to 5 minutes
- 4MB, pure Swift/SwiftUI, zero third-party dependencies
BILLIE PRO ($4.99/MO OR $49.99/YR):
- "Shut Him Up" mode — disable Billie's commentary entirely
- "Unhinged" mode — maximum platypus savagery
- Platypus Intensity slider — fine-tune your roasting experience
- Yes, you're paying to control a cartoon platypus. We respect your decision.

Built by Corey Quinn. The app is free. The platypus is free. Silencing the platypus costs money. We understand if you need a moment.
Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
DeployBar’s menu bar dropdown now sizes itself more naturally. It stays compact when there are only a few active items, and grows only as needed before scrolling.
Also included:
- Wider dropdown layout for easier scanning
- Improved handling of service status banners
- Small UI polish for dense deployment lists
Thanks to Bastian for the helpful feedback.
