Overview
When a site engineer hits the off-switch during a mission-critical update, the cost of that second of silence can run into the millions. PagerDuty (NYSE:PD) sits in that gap, providing a digital operations platform that catches automated signals before they cascade into full-scale outages. The stock currently trades at $13.83 as of August 28, 2026, marking a 95% rebound over the last six months as the company proves it can finally turn a profit.
Our proprietary Hidden Gems scoring system assigns PagerDuty an overall Superscore of 72 out of 100, placing it in the Above Average category. The Superscore is an AI-powered score that evaluates a company's overall strength by combining financial performance, product market position, technological capabilities, leadership quality, and relative valuation.
