The problem it solves

You don't find out your website or service is down until a customer complains or you happen to check it yourself. Manually refreshing status pages all day isn't realistic, so outages can drag on longer than they should.

Who it fits

Anyone running websites or online services who wants to know the moment something goes down.

How it works

  1. On a set schedule, the system pings each website on your list
  2. It records whether each site is up, its response time, and a timestamp
  3. The results are sent to your dashboard's backend
  4. Your live status dashboard updates automatically with the latest history
What you get

Outages you learn about immediately

You get a live dashboard showing whether your websites are up, with response times tracked around the clock.

What you get

An always-current status dashboard showing which sites are up, down, or slow.

What you need

A backend endpoint or dashboard service that can receive status updates.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.
