Judoscale Changelog Product updates and new features from Judoscale https://judoscale.com/changelog en-us Add roles and require 2FA for your team Wed, 27 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://judoscale.com/changelog/add-roles-and-require-2fa-for-your-team https://judoscale.com/changelog/add-roles-and-require-2fa-for-your-team Carlos Antonio da Silva Team members now have a role: Member or Admin. Members get full access to the team’s apps and autoscaling. Admins get all that plus managing the team itself — settings, subscription, members, and the new team-wide 2FA requirement.

Admins can require two-factor authentication (2FA) for the whole team in one click. Anyone without it will be asked to set it up at their next sign-in.

]]> Dyno Sniper is now available on Heroku Mon, 11 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://judoscale.com/changelog/dyno-sniper-is-now-available-on-heroku https://judoscale.com/changelog/dyno-sniper-is-now-available-on-heroku Carlos Antonio da Silva We’re rolling Dyno Sniper out to all customers running on Heroku, after running successfully in early access on our own production apps (and a few customers) for some time.

It complements autoscaling by automatically detecting and restarting poorly performing dynos — the kind that get stuck on noisy hardware and drag down your queue time (or response time), even when the rest of your fleet is fine.

Find it under your web process’s advanced settings:

Restarts show up directly above the scale chart. Hover any marker to see which dyno was sniped:

]]> Per-instance breakdown for web queue time and response time charts Tue, 5 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://judoscale.com/changelog/per-instance-breakdown-for-web-queue-time-and-response-time-charts https://judoscale.com/changelog/per-instance-breakdown-for-web-queue-time-and-response-time-charts Carlos Antonio da Silva The Queue Time and Response Time charts now have a per-instance view that shows each web dyno / instance individually. Click the chart label to switch between the average view and the per-instance view.

Hover the chart to view each instance’s value at that moment in time, sorted highest first — handy for spotting if it’s a fleet-wide spike or maybe a specific instance that might be misbehaving.

]]> Judoscale now speaks your time zone Wed, 15 Apr 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://judoscale.com/changelog/judoscale-now-speaks-your-time-zone https://judoscale.com/changelog/judoscale-now-speaks-your-time-zone Carlos Antonio da Silva Our charts have always shown date/time stamps using your local (browser-based) time zone, but the schedule has been UTC-based since the beginning. Now both speak the same time zone: yours!

The schedule is now displayed matching the charts time zone, which can be configured in your user settings or directly in the chart overview, so you can choose a specific time zone to see both the charts and schedule across the board. This only affects your view.

The schedule can also be anchored to a specific time zone (UTC by default), and is going to be daylight saving time-aware, so it will adjust accordingly as clocks change. The time zone is set is per-process, so you can have a different one on each process if needed.
