Track 80+ services your stack depends on — Stripe, AWS, Auth0, and more. When a vendor degrades, resource group alerts tell you what's affected. One alert, not 47.
Every check runs from isolated probes simultaneously. Failures are confirmed across regions — eliminating false positives.
Assert on status, latency, headers, body content, SSL expiry, and DNS records. See exactly what passed and what didn't.
