API Uptime Monitor
Dead-simple uptime monitoring for indie developers and small teams.
● The Problem
Existing uptime monitors like Datadog and PagerDuty are built for enterprises with complex pricing and setup. Solo developers and small teams need something that takes 30 seconds to configure and costs under $20/month.
● The Solution
A lightweight uptime monitoring service focused on APIs and webhooks. Paste a URL, set a check interval, get alerts via Slack, Discord, or email. No agents to install, no YAML configs, no per-seat pricing.
