Alerts
Email alerts when your website goes down
Get an email the moment a website, API, server or cron job goes down, with the reason and a link, and another when it recovers.
Down, back up and SSL alerts
Email hears when a monitor goes down, when it recovers (with how long it was down) and before a certificate expires.
Only real outages
Every failure is retried and confirmed from California, Amsterdam and Singapore before anyone is alerted, so network blips stay quiet.
The reason, not just “down”
Each alert says what failed, such as HTTP 503, a timeout or a missing keyword, how many regions saw it, and links to the monitor.
