All 4 monitors are upLast checked a few seconds ago from 2 locations.

What happens when a site goes down

One failed check doesn't wake anyone. A second location has to agree before we send an alert, so you only hear about real outages.

  1. 0 s

    A check fails

    One of our checkers gets an error or no answer from your site.

  2. +20 s

    We check again

    A checker in a different location tries the same address.

  3. +30 s

    You get an alert

    Both failed, so everyone on your alert list gets an email with the reason: timeout, HTTP 500, refused connection.

  4. Fixed

    You hear it's back

    A second email says the site recovered and how long it was down. The outage is logged in your history.

Watch more than your homepage

Add a monitor in under a minute. Each one can alert different people, and you can share the results on a public status page.

Websites
Status code and response time over HTTP and HTTPS.
Page content
Alert when a word disappears from a page, or shows up on one.
Servers
Make sure a server still answers ping.
Ports
Mail, SSH, databases or any other TCP service.
Cron jobs
Your job calls a private URL when it finishes. If it stops calling, you hear about it.
SSL certificates
A warning before a certificate expires and visitors see a browser error.
Status pages
A public page with live status and 90 days of history for your customers.
Maintenance windows
Pause alerts while you work on a server on purpose.

A status page your customers can check themselves

Fewer "is it down?" emails. Share one link that always shows the current state of your services.

  • Shows the services you choose by name. The addresses you monitor stay private.
  • 90 days of uptime history and recent incidents, so customers can see your track record.
  • Updates itself every minute. There's nothing to publish during an outage.

Questions

What counts as "down"?

For websites: no answer within the timeout (15 seconds by default), a connection error, or a status code you didn't allow (by default anything outside 200–399). You can change the timeout and the accepted codes per monitor. Every failure is re-checked from a second location before we alert you.

Where are the checks made from?

From checkers in more than one country, each on a different network. A problem in one network can't make your site look down, because a second location has to confirm it first.

Do I need a credit card for the free plan?

No. Sign up with your email and add up to 50 monitors. Upgrade only if you need faster checks or more features.

Can I change or cancel my plan?

Yes, any time from the Billing page. If you cancel, your plan stays active until the end of the period you paid for, then the account moves to Free and keeps its history.

Who gets the alerts?

Your account email, plus any other addresses you add. Each address has to confirm before it receives alerts, so nobody gets them by mistake.
