Keeps a URL's cache warm on a schedule, while doubling as a response-time uptime monitor for it.

Cloudflare Cache Monitor

Watches the cf-cache-status header on a URL and alerts you the moment it stops matching what you expect.

Domain Health Monitor

Watches your DNS records and SSL certificate so a lapsed renewal or a bad registrar change never becomes a surprise outage.

Heartbeat Monitor

Flip the direction: your system calls us. If a heartbeat goes missing, this uptime monitor tells you.

HTTP (Website) Monitor

The classic uptime monitor: we call your URL on a schedule and alert you the moment it stops answering correctly.

Port/TCP Monitor

Opens a raw TCP connection to a hostname and port on a schedule - for anything that isn't HTTP.

Response Time Monitor

A pure response-time uptime monitor - track latency over time and only alert when it genuinely matters.

Visitor Monitor

No schedule, no polling - a lightweight snippet on your site tells this uptime monitor when real traffic stops arriving.
