by•
Servy lets you run any app as a Windows service with full control over working directory, startup type, process priority, logging, health checks, environment variables, dependencies, pre-launch scripts and parameters. A fully managed alternative to NSSM.

As the creator of Servy, I built it to solve common challenges with Windows services — like the inability to change the default working directory (which causes issues for apps using relative paths), the lack of built-in health checks, and the complexity of configuring traditional service wrappers. Servy lets you run any app as a Windows service easily, with full control over startup parameters, logging, and automatic restarts. Whether you’re a developer, sysadmin, or IT pro, Servy keeps your background processes reliable without requiring code changes or manual tweaks. I’m proud to offer a modern, user-friendly alternative to NSSM and other tools.
