> I’m struggling to parse if there’s any unique offerings compared to statuspage.io. Is there anything I’m missing?

statuspage.io relies on third-party services for monitoring, while Hexadecimal provides monitoring in-house. That way you don't have to juggle between two services.

> I’m especially focused on the UI for the posting of a status page update

Status updates (both automatic and manual) is a feature I'll be shipping next. With manual updates, you'll be able to post them either via a Web UI or a Slack bot.
